  1. The end result is a bit too runny what I wanted

    Ingredients
    350 g of Cream Cheese
    175 g of Arzúa-Ulloa Cheese
    150 g of white sugar
    3 Eggs
    250 ml whipping cream
    10 g of Cornstarch
    35min 210ºC

    For the base 6cookies and 60g of butter

  2. UnrequitedFollower on

    And you still posted it. I have so much respect for people like you. I would hide my shame, slowly develop, or quit quietly. You’re willing to put it all out there knowing it wasn’t exactly what you planned… so I’m assuming your development will be much faster.

  3. Maybe try baking it? I mean do you supply straws to drink the cheese instead or what. I’m confused!

  4. Nice first attempt! Did you try the water bath trick? 210°C is also super hot and tends to bake the outside way faster than the inside. I would try 150° next time and if you can foil wrap the baking tin and have a deep roasting pan, try the water bath technique. For time 1-1.5 hours should do the trick. In reality you want to be able to see a slight wiggle from the middle. Then throw it in the fridge to chill for a bit.

  5. Dang your first and you chose a basque cheesecake? Bravo for the effort, that shit’s more difficult than a regular one imo.

  6. Looks more like flan tbh. No offence obviously, but as a cheesecake lover I wouldn’t eat that

  7. Looks like a basque cheesecake?

    These recipes i highly recommend, the 210c was about right, some say a little lower or higher, but 35 mins is too short, at higher temps you’re looking about 45 mins, lower, about an hour.

    Once done, its super important to let the cake cool completely to room temp, then cool in a fridge for a few hours covered with a towel to prevent moisture dripping on the top (you can cover that towel with cling wrap to prevent fridge flavor)

    Try again and don’t feel discouraged!!! Nailing this will be one of the pinnacles of your dessert making life, a slice of this with some fresh berries on the side and tapped with powdered sugar will make for a delightful presentation.

  8. Baked way too high, bake around 160c until center starts to barely feel firm then pull out of oven and let completely cool.
