Basque Burnt Cheesecake

Updated: May 22, 2020


Inspired by a Basque version, this is the cheesecake that wants to get burnt, cracked, and cooked at high heat. Which also means this is the cheesecake that’s impossible to mess up.

Simplest recipe, easiest to prepare, failed-proof recipe, most important a delicious cheesecake to be ready in 7 hours.

6. Bake at preheated oven 220C for 30 mins. (note to self : I'm baking at 200C for 35 mins).
