Lemon-swirled cheesecake questions

[schuh]

Since there are a number of others who, like me, planned to make this recipe for Easter, I had hoped to get some advance tips. Unfortunately, when I click on the link for the original thread with reviews/tips, I get an error message. My question is: has anyone tried this using a water bath? If so, did this work well and did it affect the baking time? And does everyone cook it longer than the recipe indicates? Thanks in advance for your help.

I did not use a water bath, but I think that would work fine. I did cook it a little longer, but I can't remember exactly how much longer (but I think at least 20 minutes longer). But I will say that I think I cooked it too long. It got a little dry around the edges. I was waiting for it to really look set in the center and let it get too dry around the edges. However, having said all this, it was very good. I loved it!! I took it to work and did have a couple of people tell me they thought the lemon curd was not sweet enough, but I thought it was perfect.

I finally made this for Easter and loved it! I let it bake for the exact time even though it looked really jiggly, and it turned out perfect. Definetly have to make this again!
