Recipe Note
Basque Cheesecake Tips
Don’t worry if the top gets very dark — that’s the signature Basque cheesecake look.
Room temperature cream cheese will give you the smoothest filling.
The centre should still have a slight wobble when removed from the oven.
Allow the cheesecake to cool before slicing for the dreamiest texture.
Chilling overnight makes it even better the next day
