Lay out several strips of foil on the counter. Make sure they're larger than your springform pan.
Wrap the foil up the sides of the pan, being sure the layers reach over halfway to the top.
Place the foil covered pan in a large oven bag or slow cooker liner. If there is excess bag, tie it in a knot at one side, being sure the bag comes all the way to the top of the pan, covering all the foil.
Make cheesecake as directed and add it to the prepared pan.
Bring several cups of water to a boil in a kettle or pot or in the microwave.
Place your cheesecake in a larger roasting pan or skillet (it needs to be larger than your springform pan).
Place the large pan in a preheated oven.
Carefully pour boiling water into the larger pan, being careful not to get it in the oven bag or springform pan.
Bake cheesecake as directed.
