עוגת גבינה בסקית - לא "שרופה" אלא אפויה

מצרכים

• 280g good quality cream cheese
• 90g caster sugar
• 2 eggs
• 125ml double cream
• ½ teaspoon vanilla flavouring
• 10g cornflour
• About ½ tsp lemon zest from a fresh lemon (optional)
• Butter for greasing the baking tins

אופן ההכנה

1. Grease the inside of your baking tin or tins and line with greaseproof paper, making sure it fits neatly into all the edges and the base.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cream cheese and caster sugar until smooth. Add the eggs and whisk again to an even consistency. Next, pour in the double cream, add the vanilla and lemon zest and sift in the cornflour. Whisk again, ensuring there are no lumps in the mixture.
3. Pour this mixture into the prepared tin(s) and bake at 200°C fan oven for 20-25 minutes. Halfway through cooking you may need to turn the cheesecake 180 degrees so that it is evenly browned.
4. When baked the cheesecake(s) should be springy in the middle and have a brown sheen.
5. Remove the cheesecake(s) from the oven and allow to cool.
6. Once cool carefully remove the paper from the cheesecake(s) and place in the fridge for at least 4 hours firm up.
