Preparing the Base

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

    In a separate bowl, cream the unsalted butter until smooth. Gradually add the sugar mixture, beating until light and fluffy.

    Add Eggs and Vanilla

    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

Preparing the Filling

Assembling the Dish

    Spread half of the base mixture evenly into a greased baking dish. Spoon the cream cheese filling over the base, then add the remaining base mixture on top.
