• 4 or… line a 9x13 glass pan with parchment paper and spray the paper and sides of the pan with pam. bake 30-35 minutes, cool and slice into bite-sized cheesecake treats! in either case, bake the cheesecake with a water bath in the oven along with it to help keep the cheesecake extra moist. all you have to do is put a separate pan with some water in it in the oven, which will boil on it’s own and keep the oven nice and steamy-moist!
