how would i convert a 9 inch cheesecake recipe into a 13 inch?

Question

not sure on how to change the ingredients.
thank you so much need to know for thanksgiving.

Answer 1

Most cheesecake recipes are not forgiving and will not allow you to double the recipe. I would make 2 batches and then use both in the 13" pan.

Answer 2

Either make 2 cheesecakes, or double the amounts called for in the 9 inch recipe. A 13 inch cheesecake is almost exactly twice the size of a 9 inch in terms of surface area on the top.

Answer 3

Assume the two cakes are the same thickness. Then the ratio of ingredients depends on the ratio of the areas of the two cheesecakes. You don't actually have to figure out the areas, however. Square the two diameters - you get 81 and 169. The second is almost exactly twice the first, so if you double the recipe, you'll be almost exactly correct.

Answer 4

the amount on the recipe for the 9" and add 2/3 of the ingredients for the 13". For example if the recipe for the 9" calls for two cups of sugar, you would add 2/3 cups for the 13".

Please let me know if this works for you.

Answer 5

I would say to multiply the ingredients by 50%
Example
If it calls for 1 cup for a 9 inch then use another 1/2 cup

Answer 6

I agree with GP. Make two separate batches. Cheesecake is very tempremental, With the left over batter you could do little mini cheesecakes in a muffin tin and freeze them when baked for a treat later on.

Answer 7

Use about 1 and a half of everything. So 2 cups would be 3 and 1 cup would be 1.5.

Answer 8

I add 1/3 more of everything to compensate for the larger bakeware. It has worked for me for about 20 years.

Answer 9

I think its roughly the same. Cook it on a lower temperature for longer and keep checking throughout cooking. I cook nearly everything at 200 degrees c. and vary the time according to what it is.

Answer 10

Multiply all the ingredient amounts by 1.5. It isn't exact but it will be very very close. (9 x 1.5 = 13.5).
