Pour into the crust-lined spring-form pan. Place the spring-form pan with cheesecake batter inside a larger baking pan, and fill the larger pan carefully with one inch water and place pan in 300 degree F oven (this is called a "WATER BATH" that helps your cheesecake bake proportionately and to prevent cracking).
- Bake for 1 hour, or possibly till the cheesecake is set in the middle.
