Ep.10/100 of : Burnt Basque Cheesecake
—
One of the easiest and most indulgent bakes, with the CREAMIEST texture. Though it’ll need some time to rest, it takes less than 15’ to whip this up and 30’ for the magic to happen in the oven. You literally need to burn this cheesecake so there should be little room for error, making it an ideal bake if you’re just getting into baking or want to whip something up quickly 😋
