Just Another Cheesecake

[Timmah!]

No springform pan, no water bath, just a Pyrex casserole dish and attentiveness. 

Since it's a custard, I do babysit the oven temperature during the 50 minute bake, monitoring the temperature with a probe & manually turning the oven off & on to keep the temperature between 323°F & 327°F.  Well worth the effort. 

Most home ovens cycle +/- 30°F from setpoint, meaning 60°F swings in temperature during the bake; unacceptable.

Looks good @Timmah! It might be insulting to ask but do you ever put say a (homemade)blueberry topping on this or any other cheese cake?

Sometimes; but I usually prefer the taste of just the cheesecake.

I bought a couple of these devices some time ago; one I use for controlling the temperature ramp on my homemade coffee roaster; splicing this into a home oven however, isn't practical.
