What Does Gelatin Do In Cheesecake?
Gelatin is a binding agent that helps to stabilize the texture of cheesecake filling. It is added to the cheesecake filling along with other ingredients to create a more cohesive and firm texture once the cheesecake sets in the refrigerator. The gelatin also prevents the cheesecake from cracking or collapsing when sliced. It is a common ingredient in no-bake cheesecake recipes.
