How do you know when mini cheesecakes are done?

How do you know if you Overbak a cheesecake?
There are a few tell-tale signs that you’ve overbaked your cheesecake. Cracks in the top of the cake are one indication, as well as a dry or crumbly texture. Because cheesecakes are custards, they won’t be completely firm when done – so if your cake is rock-solid, it’s likely overcooked. The best way to avoid overbaking is to give the cake a little jiggle before taking it out of the oven. Gently tap the side of the pan with a wooden spoon – if thecake wobbles, it’s probably ready. If it doesn’t move at all, it’s likely overcooked.
