Ingredients

5 Eggs
900 g Philadelphia-style cream cheese
250 g Sugar (You can reduce the amount to 200 g.)
20 g Cornstarch
400 g Heavy cream, 30% fat (Isigny)
200 g Liquid heavy cream
1 càc Vanilla seeds (Or the seeds from 1 vanilla bean; optional.)

Steps

1
Preheat the oven to 220 °C and prepare a 24 cm-diameter pan. The source specifies the pan diameter but does not explain how to line it.
2
Mix the cream cheese with the eggs, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
3
Add the vanilla seeds if using, then incorporate the thick cream and liquid cream. The vanilla is optional.
4
Pour the mixture into the prepared pan.
5
Bake for approximately 45 minutes at 220 °C, monitoring the baking. A very dark, even burnt, top is normal for this cake.
6
When removed from the oven, let the cheesecake cool sufficiently before refrigerating it; the source does not specify the cooling time or method.
7
Refrigerate it overnight for the best texture.
8
The next day, remove the cheesecake from the pan and cut it into generous slices to serve.

Notes

The creator presents this recipe as her personal version inspired by traditional recipes. The text does not provide details about mixing or lining the pan, so these steps are not specified. The cooling time before refrigeration is not indicated.
