Step 4Is your oven on yet?
Warm your oven to 250 degrees F. Place cheesecake into a *preheated water bath*, in the oven for 1 hour. Turn the oven off and open the door for one minute. Close the door for one more hour. Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and place in the refrigerator for 6 hours to completely cool before serving.
(I pulled these instructions out of Alton Browns newer book, with all the baking info)
For the water bath you want to bring about a quart of water to a boil, then put it in the pan carefully, making sure not to splash or jumble the pies around too much, as it can lead to a big mess.
As you can see I had some extra filling and popped it into full blown crust. It barely filled half way, but it still came out nicely.
I hope you enjoy it as much as my wife and kids did.
