I just prepared this and is in the oven now. I'm making this for Easter tomorrow and I hope it tastes better baked! I tasted the batter and it's not so good :(

There only other review said it was one of the best they've had so I'm hoping this will be good when it's finished baking but idk... :)

I don't have butter flavoring. Can I use vanilla or real butter?

I made this recipe. The cheese cake floofed up and spilled over the spring form pan like a souffle. The batter was delicious. I get the feeling I will be making this again very soon. Delicious!

Who else is here because of Emmymadeinjapan? :) This recipe is very easy to follow if you've made cheesecake before. Here are the things I did differently: I wrapped the outside of the springform pan with aluminum foil to help prevent any leaks. I used vanilla bean paste instead of regular vanilla. I placed the springform pan in a 9x13-inch casserole dish full of water. The batter looked like a bit much, so I withheld about 1 1/3 cup (which was completely unnecessary because the batter wasn't even close to overflowing when baked). My oven must run hotter than average because my first attempt was slightly overcooked, but delicious nonetheless. My second attempt came out perfect with some slight modifications. The Velveeta cheesecake does NOT taste like cheese, it is surprisingly delightful and unsurprisingly ORANGE!
