About Basque cheese cake

Basque Cheesecake, originating from the Basque region of Spain, is a rich, indulgent dessert known for its distinctively creamy texture and caramelized top. Made with simple ingredients like cream cheese, heavy cream, sugar, eggs, and flour, this crustless cheesecake is baked at high heat to achieve its signature browned exterior. The absence of a crust makes it gluten-free, appealing to those with dietary restrictions. While it's high in protein due to the eggs and cream cheese, Basque Cheesecake is also calorically dense, with high amounts of sugar and fats. It is best enjoyed in moderation as a treat rather than an everyday snack. This unique dessert stands out for its balance of sweet, tangy, and burnt flavors, making it a beloved dish in both traditional Basque cuisine and modern baking trends.
