For the smoothest texture, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened before blending. A water bath can help prevent cracks in the cheesecake. Wrap the bottom of the springform pan in foil and place it in a larger pan filled with about an inch of hot water before baking. Don't overbake! The slight jiggle in the center is key to a creamy texture.
