For the Cheesecake Layer

Simply as with our Strawberry Cheesecake Cake and others, we prefer to make the cheesecake layer first. It’s easy and fast to make, however it wants loads of time to bake and funky.

For the Water Bathtub

When making cheesecake, some bakers wrap the underside of the springform pan in foil and bake it in a water tub. Nevertheless, we favor this alternate technique that works very properly:
