This cheesecake can either be no-bake or bake - baking the filling produces a denser texture and some browning. If you decide to bake it, pour the filling over the raw crust and bake for 50 mins to 1 hour at 350 Fahrenheit, until the top has browned slightly. Place in refrigerator overnight to set.
