I want to find an easy way to give away a cheesecake without worrying about getting my metal springform base back. I thought of putting a cardboard round in the bottom, but I don't know if you can bake on that, or should I just use a parchment round? Or do you have a better suggestion?

I found this comment on a cheesecake recipe on allrecipes.com
TIP: I ALWAYS PLACE A CARDBOARD CAKE CIRCLE INSIDE THE CHEESECAKE PAN. I GREASE THE CARBOARD JUST AS I WOULD THE PAN. THE CARDBOARD WILL NOT BURN AND THE CAKE AND THE BOARD CAN BE REMOVED AT THE SAME TIME FROM YOUR PAN. USING A CAKEBOARD ELIMINATES THE PROBLEM OF SCRATCHING THE BOTTOM OF YOUR PAN, OR LOSING THE BOTTOM OF THE PAN IF YOU ARE SERVING OR TAKING YOUR CAKE OUTSIDE OF YOUR HOME. ENJOY!

Put down at least two layers of baking parchment, cut into circles the size of your springform base. Once it's baked, have someone help you slide a thin cardboard round or tray in between the layers. Go carefully, using a metal spatula if needs be.

Cardboard Cake Rounds

The cardboard will burn...use the parchment round when baking, and then you could use the cardboard to give away...

I would suggesting using parchment paper. When you take it apart you could slide the cake onto a round or inexpensive plate/platter to give away. I have given away cakes on $1.50 plates from Wal-Mart.

Nope, there is disaster written all over that one! What you can do, however, is transfer your cheesecake to a container with a large metal spatula or two. Have someone help you by sliding your serving platform under the cake as you lift it. Should be just fine!

I always bake my cheesecakes in a regular cake pans. Springform is too risky. After the cake is chilled you can run a knife around it and pop it out.

Not unless you want the cake to taste like burnt cardboard

I wouldn't cook with cardboard...I think you're right to use parchment paper and maybe slide it onto cardboard AFTER cooking...
