A rich and creamy cheesecake with a unique burnt top, perfect for special occasions or a treat for yourself.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz Full-Fat Cream Cheese (Room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar (Dissolved in mixture)
  • 3 large Eggs (At room temperature)
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (Can substitute with lighter cream)
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour (Gluten-free alternatives work)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt (Enhances sweetness)
  • 1 cup Whipped Cream (For serving)
  • 1 cup Fresh Berries (For serving)
  • 1/2 cup Caramel Sauce (For drizzling on top)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, mix the cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition.
  4. Pour in the heavy cream and mix until fully combined.
  5. Add the flour and salt, stirring until there are no lumps.
  6. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, letting it hang over the sides for easy removal.
  7. Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  8. Bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is dark brown and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Let it cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least four hours or overnight.

Notes

Make sure all your ingredients are at room temperature for a smooth mixture. Don’t skip the chilling time; it helps set the cake and develop flavors.
