Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) with the rack in the middle.
  2. Line a loaf pan with parchment paper, ensuring it overhangs the sides.
  3. In a mixing bowl, blend cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Gradually add flour, salt, and heavy cream, mixing until just combined, then add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed.
  5. Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  6. Bake for 50-60 minutes until the top is golden brown and the center jiggles slightly.
  7. Let the cheesecake cool at room temperature for one hour, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing.

Notes

For the best flavor and texture, allow the cheesecake to set in the refrigerator overnight if possible.
