Basque Cheesecake
Basque cheesecake, also known as burnt Basque cheesecake, is made by baking the cheesecake in a very hot oven to deliver a beautiful, dark exterior full of bittersweet notes that complements the creamy light interior. I adapted the original recipe to fit a standard cake pan rather than the large springform pan used in the original. I rarely post a trendy recipe while it's still trendy, but this cheesecake method deserves the hype and is just plain easier — just remember the parchment paper.
