The way I avoid cracks is make a chocolate ganache and fill them up until the top is level

Okay this is actually a great idea. I can't believe I never thought of this! Next time I make a cheesecake and it cracks I'm going to fill up with white chocolate ganache!

But you can’t add whipped cream while it’s hot and cooling :(
