Step 6:

The filling is done. The crust is done. Pour the mixture onto the crust. Then place into the oven you preheated to 350 degrees F.

If you want your cake to have a smooth glassy top like bakery cheescakes do, you need to cook the cake in a water bath. To do this place an inch or so of water in a larger pan and then set the springform pan inside of it. This will prevent the top of the cake from cracking while cooking. Please note that I didn't use this technique in this recipe.

After an hour of baking, you get this:

You'll know when it's done when you see the top starting to get brown. The cake should still be a bit wobbly in the middle. Place it in the fridge for a few hours.

Step 8:

The glaze is simple: Just mix everything in a saucepan and heat it up until it starts to boil. I used the same smashing technique on the berries that I did with the graham crackers.

I personally prefer fresh fruit on cheesecake as opposed to just a glaze. The original recipe called for strawberries only, but I mixed rasberries, strawberries and blackberries together. I heard that cherries work well with this recipe as well.
