The cheesecakes should be relatively firm. Let them cool on your counter for at least 30 minutes. While your cheesecakes are cooling, work on the icing. If you're using a mini-cheesecake pan, you should be able to use your finger and pop the cheesecakes up from the bottom of the pan (via the removable bottom).
