The internet is crazy over La Vina's burnt Basque cheesecake and for good reason. It's one of the easiest and most delicious desserts I've ever prepared.
Thank you for metric consideration for lazy people like me.. going to try this right now..
I am crazy about this cheesecake
Btw peeps, if any of you own an air fryer then this recipe works wonders in an air fryer too. Same recipe, same process and you bake it at 180 degrees for 25-30 minutes depending on how burnt you'd prefer your cheesecake. Try it guys and you can thank me later 😉
I don't have a standing mixer. I have a cheap hand mixer and had no problems.
Hi! Just curious what would be the difference if there was flour since you said you 'specifically' removed flour to made it taste better.
Hi. Tried baking this cheesecake. On 6 inch pan My problem is. The sides were not burnt. Only the top. Which annoys me. Does the pan have an effect to it? I ised only an ordinary pan and not the spring form. And also we bake it on 43 mins with 220 celcius. Had we done somthing wrong with it? Pls
THIS HAS TO BE THE BEST BASQUE BURNT CHEESECAKE RECIPE I’VE EVER TRIED. BETTER THAN LEMON AND VANILLA COMBO.
I made one a week ago and my husband was floored. I didn't use this recipe but I did use your idea of orange zest, I also used orange essence and vanilla extract. Came out amazing.
Tried this, how come mine was eggy in texture 😐 Anything i might be doing wrong?
Hi. How do i reduce recipe for 6 inch pan?
I mean I realize you're doing your version of the Basque cheesecake but to me one of the big factors that makes it is the texture of the finished product. Your cheesecake doesn't have any of the classic custardy/liquid looking interior and while I'm sure it tastes good it just doesn't feel like it's what I want out of a basque style cheesecake.
Oooooooh yum! Going to make this for Christmas
nice but not La Vina
I made it and ohhhh it was soooo taste the orange zest and almond added a plus !! Thanks for sharing the topps and recipe
Sorry for the honesty but if you wanna tell people you make a better version of a classic you should deliver. The texture of the cake is completely off. It supposed to be smooth and creamy, not crumbly.
Mine is always watery I don't know why?
I always add orange zest and vanilla to mine. So delicious.
Love the changes you made to this recipe! Will most definitely lead to a more flavorful Basque cheesecake. Keeping this in mind for when I attempt this dish😌
Hey! Thanks for the video. What should I do if I want to make a 5 inch or 6 inch cheesecake? By how much should I reduce the recipe?
Baked it too long. It was obviously overcooked. The center should be gelatinous.
Great experience making this cake it’s the first time my hubby join me in the kitchen, he was so into it … now I know we can explore more of your recipes; thank you!!!! It’s to die for!!!!
improve it? The cake lacks creaminess. I advise you to go to Spain and try them
What a well made video from the instructions, right down to the explanation of why you choose certain ingredients. Instant subscription.
I think I can do this🙏🏻❤
I've been making Burnt Basque Cheesecake for a few years now and instead of using cream cheese I use 2 lbs. of homemade Ricotta cheese! It's so much lighter and more delicious.
I make Burnt Basque Cheesecake using my homemade Ricotta cheese – it's SO MUCH better than using cream cheese!
I cried first time I ate at La Viña. Both the food and cheesecake was world class. Been back 3 times after that.
Hey Tim — was your oven a fan-assisted oven? Wondering if I should bake at 220°C or bring it down to 200°C!
THANK YOU
Best video, yet, on how to prepare this cake!
this recipe has double the sugar what a regular basque cheesecake has
Watching from Saskatchewan 🇨🇦😋
You forgot the main ingredient of this Basque recipe which is key to its flavour – Basque sheep's cheese!
