Basque Cheesecake

Method

Cheesecake Preparation

  1. 1

    Preheat Oven

    Preheat your oven to 210°C (410°F) and line a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Pour in the heavy cream and vanilla, and mix until fully combined. Sift in the flour, and fold gently until just incorporated.

  3. 3

    Bake the Cheesecake

    Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the top is deeply browned and the center is slightly jiggly.

  4. 4

    Cool and Chill

    Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door ajar for 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let it cool at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
