This cake is also known as burnt cheesecake, this will be the most delicious and fun cheesecake you will ever eat because of the two different consistency. If you eat it at room temperature it is custardy and delicious and literally melts in your mouth, if you pop it in the refrigerator for the next day, it will harden and become the creamiest cheesecake you will ever taste.

Preheat your oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit and you will be using a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, add room temperature cream cheese in the stand mixer bowl and cream it for about a minute and then add the sugar and keep mixing for a couple of minutes until you get a super smooth mixture.

Crack your eggs and add them one at a time and don’t add the second one until the first one is incorporated in the mixture. Keep mixing until all the eggs are added then add heavy cream with a splash of vanilla while beating on low speed. Sift in some all-purpose flour, just fold the flour with a wooden spoon.

For the pan, you will need an overlined 10 inches springform pan that is lined with parchment paper, pour the batter into the pan and pop it into the oven at 425 for 45 minutes. Your cheesecake will look golden brown and caramelize on top which is what you want and the centre will be slightly jiggly which is important and then you will let it cool completely once out of the oven.

When you take the cake out of the oven, it will fall and as it sits it’s going to be beautiful and rustic which is how it’s supposed to look like. When you let it cool to room temperature, the inside will be very soft and custardy.
