    Bake for 45-50 minutes until just set. When you check the cheesecake, gently jiggle the pan. If the cheesecake moves too much like it’s still gooey, you need to bake it longer.

    Remove the cake and allow it to sit on a wire rack until completely cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Before serving, spread enough of the strawberry pie filling to lightly cover the cheesecake. Extra pie filling can be used for those who like a little more topping.
