Form the basis of the future cheesecake in a ring, split form or portioned molds (I have a form with a diameter of 18 cm). I made a base without sides. Cool the base in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, then bake in an oven preheated to 180 ° C for 7-10 minutes. Cool the baked base.
Step 3

Pour the finished cheesecake dough over the cooled base into a mold (D = 18 cm). Bake for 1 hour at 160 ° C in a water bath. For a water bath, place the cheesecake pan in a large pan filled with hot water. Pour water on at least 2-3 cm of the cheesecake mold.
Step 8

Remove the finished cooled cheesecake from the mold and let it cool in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours. Decorate as you wish: I had chocolate sprigs and a chocolate cat, which I made with mold.
