  8. Pour filling over the baked crust.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is almost set.
  10. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
  11. Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use full-fat cream cheese.
  • Do not overmix the batter once the eggs are added, as this can cause cracks.
  • To prevent cracks, you can place a pan of hot water on the rack below the cheesecake while it bakes.
  • Cheesecake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
