Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by crushing the biscuits using your blender
    240 grams Biscuits
  2. Mix them with the melted butter at room temperature
    120 grams Butter
  3. Spread this mixture on the surface of your mold
  4. In your electric mixer using the whisk head, start mixing your cream cheese with the sugar
    800 grams Cream Cheese, 240 grams Sugar
  5. Once they start to get incorporated, add the sour cream and mix
    580 grams Sourcream
  6. Continue by adding the eggs one by one while mixing
    4 Eggs
  7. Finish by adding the corn flour and vanilla extract, and make sure the final batter is well mixed
    4 tbsp Corn Flour, 1 ½ tbsp Vanilla Extract
  8. Add it in your cake mold, and make sure you previously add some baking sheet on the internal sides.
Baking
  1. In your oven preheated at 180 degrees Celsius (356 degrees Fahrenheit) with convection on, place your mold in the middle tray and bake for 30 mins
  2. Once the 30 mins are over, without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 150 degrees Celsius (302 degrees Fahrenheit) and bake for another 30 mins
  3. Take your baked cheesecake out of the oven and let it cool down to room temperature
Fridge
  1. Once cooled down, place your cheese cake in the fridge for at least 6 hours
  2. Make sure that your final product hold very well together, is firm, and is now ready to be served!
Serving
  1. You can serve it with any topping of your choice. We suggest a red fruits coulis, similar to the one we did for our Panna Cotta recipe (Link here)
  2. For best conservation, do not refrigerate the cake with the coulis. Rather poor the coulis on each individual piece when needed.

Notes

Our Cooking Hints

  • It is best to consume your cheesecake in 48 hours
  • To get rid of the yellow color on the sides due to the oven, you can use a steel ring, with a smaller diameter than your cake mold, and keep a smaller diameter cake which looks perfect!
  • If your cake batter has a liquid texture do not worry. The water will evaporate in the oven and the mixture will solidify
