Tips: For hot water bath, take a large pan containing water and place the cake tin over it and keep it in oven. This will prevent cracking and help retain the moisture of the cake. The best way to crush the biscuits is to put them inside a strong plastic food bag and bash them with a rolling pin. To removing the cheesecake, run a sharp knife around the edge of the pan and the cheesecake. Then gently release the spring form clamp on the tin.
