Ingredients
Preparation method
Ingredients for the filling should be at room temperature. Take the eggs and cheese out of the fridge in time, about 1 hour beforehand.
Grease a 24 cm springform pan very well with melted butter so that you can easily remove the finished cheesecake. You can also line the bottom of the pan with a circle cut from baking paper. For a solid pan, paper is essential if you want to remove the finished cheesecake in one piece. Since you will be baking the cheesecake in a water bath, you must also seal the springform pan. Place two forty-centimeter pieces of aluminum foil over each other in a cross shape and place the greased pan in the center. Tightly wrap the pan from the outside with aluminum foil.
Start preheating the oven to 160 degrees Celsius, leave the fan oven off.
Chef's tip
Don't panic unnecessarily if the whole operation doesn't succeed; a cracked cake can always be masked with an additional layer, such as whipped cream, fruit, or chocolate glaze. The cake is best cut with a heated knife (a tall glass full of hot water and a cloth will help).
