(new!) Chocolate Basque Cheesecake Recipe 🍫😋  My new obsession! This chocolate Basque cheesecake is rich and chocolatey and the most beautiful creamy texture 😋🤤 Very simple to mix together before baking in a hot oven to achieve a bit of a burnt top, then leave to set for the perfect texture! YUM! Full recipe, details & method on www.janespatisserie.com INGREDIENTS 600g full fat soft cheese (room temp!) 175g light brown/caster sugar  4 medium eggs 1 tsp vanilla bean  30g cocoa powder 300ml double cream (room temp!) 175g dark chocolate (melted and cooled) METHOD Preheat the oven to 230ºc/210ºc fan and line a deep 8” cake tin with parchment paper I do one large piece for the base and sides - the paper does not need to be perfect.  You can add everything to a blender and mix, or you can mix separately Make sure every ingredient is at room temperature  Add the cream cheese to a bowl and loosen Pour in the dark chocolate and mix together  Add the eggs and vanilla and mix again  Sift in the cocoa powder and sugar and mix through Pour in the double cream and combine Pour into the tin Bake for 35-40 minutes, until ‘burnt’ and very brown on top (will be dark in colour anyway due to chocolate content), and so there is still a considerable wobble in the middle  Leave to cool in the tin for an hour Set in the fridge for 1-2 hours minimum to firm up slightly or overnight Serve  #JanesPatisserie #BasqueCheesecake #ChocolateBasqueCheesecake #BakedCheesecake #BurntBasque
