According to Neatorama, the term “cheesecake,” in connection with women, was used in Britain in the 1660s to describe “overly sexy or promiscuous” women.

What happens if you over whip cheesecake?

Overmixing. While cheesecake should be thoroughly mixed with a hand mixer, mixing it too much will result in a super soft cheesecake. To help your cheesecake keep its form, never mix longer than the recipe instructs and avoid tools like a blender or food processor, which can prevent it from setting.

How do I fix grainy cheesecake?

As a cheesecake is set using eggs, it needs a gentle heat and a water bath can help to provide this. If the eggs overcook they turn grainy, hence the texture, and also the proteins contract and force out moisture, which is why the cheesecake may have some liquid seeping out. Often also the surface will crack.

Why is my cheesecake like scrambled eggs?
