Description

A rich and creamy cheesecake with a slightly charred top, made easily in a loaf pan for a spectacular dessert.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz Full-Fat Cream Cheese (room temperature)
  • 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar (dissolved in the mixture)
  • 3 large Eggs (at room temperature)
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream (substitute with lighter cream if desired)
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour (gluten-free alternatives work)
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 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 mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
  3. Gradually add in the granulated sugar, mixing until dissolved.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and mix until well combined.
  6. Sift in the all-purpose flour and salt, then fold gently until smooth.
  7. Pour the batter into a greased loaf pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is beautifully burnt and the center is jiggly.
  8. Allow it to cool before refrigerating for at least 4 hours.

Notes

For best results, ensure that cream cheese and eggs are at room temperature before mixing. Avoid overmixing to maintain a light texture.
