8. Also, put no more than 1″ of water in the pan.
9. Check oven temperature for accuracy.
10. When cheesecake is done, turn oven off, DO NOT OPEN DOOR, let sit for 1 hour.
11. Then remove, place on a rack, and let cool to room temperature (about 1 hour).
12. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
