Ingredients:

Cream Cheese: this is on sale right now, so of course, I have to get 4 lbs. It is highly advisable to get the complete fat one, so that it is more rich.

Heavy Whipping Cream: add more richness on the cheesecake. Regular milk just don’t cut it.

Egg: This will bind the cheesecake together. Cheesecake has an eggy vibe to it due to the egg.

Sugar: I wish that we can skip this one, but we just have to add it for an awesome flavor. What is a cheesecake without sugar, after all this is an ultimate comfort food.

Salt: I always find salt as a balancer on sweetness. Add in salt in any dish and it will easily give kick to any dessert.

Vanilla Extract: add this for extra flavor.

Flour: this make the cheesecake rise in the oven.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds full-fat cream cheese room temperature
• 1 1/3 cups white granulated sugar
• 5 large eggs room temperature
• 1 1/4 cups heavy cream room temperature
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup all purpose flour
•  

Instructions

• Prepare the Oven and Pan: Pre heat oven at 400 F . And move the rack in the middle of the oven.
• Place parchment paper in an 9 inch springform pan. Line the pan with a large parchment paper crisscrossed in its side.
• Make the Batter: Place cream cheese and sugar in a stand up mixing bowl and mix using a wire whip.
• Mix until no lumps and cream cheese is creamy. Make sure to scrape sides using a spatula.
• Add the heavy whipping cream, heavy cream and mix until cream and no lumps. Scrape side of cream cheese using a spatula.
• Add the eggs one at a time, beating on medium-low speed until each egg is combined before adding in the next.
• Remove the bowl from the mixer and using a strainer, sprinkle the all purpose flour.
• Mix on slow speed until flor is combined. Scrape sides using a spatula and make sure the batter at the bottom is well mix.
• Transfer batter in the prepared pan and bake.
• Bake: Pre heat oven at 400 F and place the oven rack in the middle of the oven. Place pan in the middle of the oven and bake for 10 minutes in 400 F  and change oven setting to 350 F and bake for 50 -60 minutes. Check the top of the cream cheese for golden color and the middle is slightly jiggly.
• Cool: Remove cheesecake from the oven and let cool in room temperature. When cheesecake is cool down, remove from the pan and place in the fridge.
• Serve: When ready to serve, peel back the parchment paper and cut your slice and enjoy.

Notes

Note: The batter will raise on the side of the pan, so it's important that there's an excess of parchment on the side. I used 9 inch springform pan in 3 inch high.
