Cheesecakes require a boiler in the oven too to keep the cake moist and not dry. Nobody makes their own cheesecake that I know

You can also bake it low and slow. I fucking hate water baths. A 6-7 hour bake of a cheesecake at 200°F and an overnight chill in the fridge yielded the best cheesecake I have ever eaten.

Also, I believe r/baking would disagree with no one making their own cheesecake. People take on all sorts of absurdly fiddly bakes there.

theres also basque cheesecake, the objectively correct cheesecake, which just cooks in the oven at highish temp
