It is baked in a springform pan.

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Step 2
Mix the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs and pat into a 10 inch springform pan. Set aside.
Step 3
Separate the eggs. Set the whites aside. Beat together the egg yolks, cream cheese and sugar until very smooth. Beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold the egg whites into the cheese mixture.
