n in 3 hours? (or still frozen)??

Slightly freaking out Deb

it should be mostly thawed out - if it's still a little frozen when you go to cut it,

you can put individual slices in the microwave on defrost for 15 sec intervals. that should do it!

If you don't mind gnaw marks, go for it now. not that I would know this from personal experience.

From Sara Lee, it looks like 5 hours will do it.

Relax and breath, Deb. Cutting it into slices first will reduce the thawing time.

Darn it, now I want cheesecake!

Thank you everyone....I definitely calmed down after seeing your answers

I'm serving it in about 20 minutes - it will be at least very partially defrosted And I can always position as a 'frozen treat'!

Cheesecake was a huge hit! It was a tad cold - but appreciated by all
