For those of us for whom 2 cheesecakes at once would be one too many, have you ever halved the recipe?  Also, can I use gelatin powder instead of sheets?   If yes, would I just use the equivalent weight?  I have never used gelatin sheets.  Thank you.  This looks delicious.

 

Thanks.

If you'd halve the recipe and use gelatin powder, then you will make it as I do :) So yes, go ahead.

 

@Deryn Again, thank you very much. I use fish based gelatin powder because this is what common in Israel due to kosher preference of many. I don't know to tell you the right conversion, but I guess that keeping the weight the same will be good enough.
 

I just remembered a recent Serious Eats post by Stella Parks about this subject:
