Basque-style cheesecake from Milk Street Bakes: A Baking Book with 200 Sweet and Savory Recipes (page 335) by Christopher Kimball

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

    Oh my, this was delicious! It definitely requires planning, especially if you are going to make your own creme fraiche, but it's mostly waiting time. With the ingredients are room temperature, it came together quickly. My only issue upon baking was finding a consistent temperature to ensure it was done. The temps were ranging wildly depending upon where it was (center top, center middle, on its way in to the middle) and I think I overbaked it by about 3-5 minutes. Was still delicious and creamy. Love that there was no crust. I also found my standard roll of parchment paper did not come above the top of the pan and I had to rig another piece in there. Also, scrunching the paper before putting in the pan makes it easier to manipulate to the round shape. All in all, a very worthwhile outcome!
