Recipe of Burnt Basque Cheesecake
Ingredients: 2 pounds cream cheese, softened 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar 5 large eggs, room temperature 2 cups heavy cream 1 tbsp vanilla extract ½ cup all-purpose flour pinch of salt zest of one lemon Instructions: Preheat your oven to 400°F. Having a high starting temperature contributes to the beautiful burnt exterior. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Incorporate the vanilla extract into the mixture. Gradually pour in the heavy cream while continuing to beat the mixture. Ensure it is well combined. Gently fold in the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt. Be careful not to overmix; you want a smooth batter without overworking it. Grate the zest of one lemon into the batter for a hint of citrusy freshness. Fold it in until evenly distributed. Pour the batter into the SENSARTE Nonstick Detachable Handle Sauce Pan. Remember to remove the detachable handle in advance to use is as the baking pan. Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 50-60 minutes or until the top is deeply golden brown, and the center is set but still slightly jiggly. Allow the burnt Basque cheesecake to cool completely in the pan. As it cools, it will sink slightly, creating a rustic and characteristic appearance. Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or, preferably, overnight. This helps to enhance the flavors and texture. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the SENSARTE Nonstick Detachable Handle Sauce Pan, slice, and serve. The burnt Basque cheesecake is delightful on its own or with a dollop of whipped cream. Enjoy!
