After 8 minutes or so, the mixture should thicken slightly until it slowly runs off the spoon. Remove from the heat and pour into a small bowl. Set aside to cool.

To assemble, carefully remove the ring from the spring form pan and set aside. Gently slide the cheesecake off the bottom of the pan onto a cutting board, using a flat spatula or knife if needed.
step 14
For shaped bars, use a cookie cutter (as deep as you can find!) to press all the way through the cheesecake. You may need to use a knife or flat spatula to get the cheesecake out of the cookie cutter.
