Crack 10 whole eggs into a bowl, checking for shells.

Add 2 cups of sugar to the eggs.

Add 2 caps of vanilla extract to the mixture.

Whip the egg, sugar, and vanilla mixture until well combined and smooth.

Prepare aluminum dishes by spraying them with Pam spray.

Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared aluminum dishes, filling them close to the top.

Prepare a water bath by pouring water into the larger pan without getting any in the cheesecake.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Place the filled dishes in the oven and bake for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, spinning them halfway through for even cooking.

Check the cheesecakes at 45 minutes; they should be starting to solidify on top.

Remove the cheesecakes from the oven and let them cool for about 30 minutes.

Run a knife around the edge of each cheesecake to loosen it from the dish.

Plate the cheesecake and dust with powdered sugar and strawberry sauce.
