Bake about 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the center has set. Turn off the oven and crack the door open for additional hour, then place the cake on the counter to cool to room temperature, then chill in the fridge for 4 hour.
When it’s cooled remove the ring from the springform pan and transfer the cake onto the serving plate.
