6. Bake the Cheesecake:
- Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan, smoothing the top.
- Place the cake pan in a roasting pan and add hot water to the roasting pan, creating a water bath that comes about halfway up the side of the cake pan. This will help keep the cheesecake moist and prevent cracking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes. The top should be golden and slightly cracked, but the center should still be a little wobbly. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with aluminum foil.
- Once done, turn off the oven and let the cake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for about an hour. This will help the cake settle gradually and prevent shrinking.
7. Cool and Serve:
- After cooling in the oven, transfer the cheesecake to room temperature. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best results.
- Before serving, dust with a light sprinkling of powdered sugar for an elegant touch.
- Slice and enjoy the incredibly light and fluffy texture!
