Ingredients
Ingredient | Amount | Purpose |
---|---|---|
Medium eggs | 6 | Adds structure and richness |
Sugar | 4 heaping tbsp (about 1/4 cup) | Sweetens and supports texture |
Milk | 1 1/4 cups (about 10 fl oz) | For creamy consistency |
Cream cheese | 7 oz (about 1 cup) | Creates that rich, velvety texture |
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Set your oven to 392°F (200°C) with both top and bottom heat for even baking.
Step 2: Whip the Eggs and Sugar
In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs and sugar using a hand or stand mixer for about 1 minute, until light and airy.
Step 3: Blend in the Cream Cheese
Gradually add softened cream cheese to the egg mixture, whisking until smooth and lump-free.
Step 4: Add the Milk
Pour in the milk slowly while continuing to mix until the batter is fully blended and silky.
Step 5: Prep Your Pan
Line a 20 x 20 cm glass baking dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Step 6: Strain for Smoothness
Pour the batter through a fine-mesh sieve into the baking dish—this step ensures an ultra-smooth final texture.
Step 7: Bake
Place the dish in the oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the cheesecake is golden and set.
Step 8: Cool & Chill
Let it cool at room temperature for 20 minutes, then transfer to the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to chill and set completely.
To Serve
Slice and enjoy as-is, or top with seasonal fruit, a drizzle of honey, or a spoonful of jam for a sweet finishing touch.
