Cheesecakes are often baked in water baths. This simply means that the cheesecake is baked in its round springform pan, then the pan is placed into a larger pan with hot water inside.

Can I use a pie pan to make cheesecake?
Cheesecake can certainly be made with your own crust in a pan, or a store-bought graham cracker crust purchased in a pie pan, versus using a Springform pan. Also, the cooking time in the pie pan may be shorter, since less batter will be used. Or, you may keep the timing the same, but slightly reduce the temperature.

Over-mixing incorporates too much air, which makes the cheesecake rise during baking (the way a souffle does), then collapse as it cools.
