Ein zeitloser Klassiker, der auf keiner Kaffeetafel fehlen darf: Dieser gebackene Cheesecake besticht durch seine unglaublich cremige Textur und den knusprigen Keksboden. Durch das Backen im Wasserbad gelingt er besonders gleichmäßig und bleibt herrlich saftig. Ein wahrer Genuss für alle Käsekuchen-Liebhaber!

Preparation method

Preparation

All ingredients for the cream should be at room temperature. Take the eggs and cream cheese out of the refrigerator in good time, about 1 hour beforehand.

Generously grease a springform pan (Ø 24 cm) with melted butter. Since the cheesecake will be baked in a water bath, the pan must be sealed: Place two large pieces of aluminum foil crosswise over each other, place the pan in the center, and firmly fold the foil up around the outer edge. Preheat the oven to 160 °C top/bottom heat (no convection).

Crust & Cream

Crumble the butter biscuits (in a freezer bag with a rolling pin or in a blender) and mix them with the melted butter. Press the mixture firmly onto the bottom of the pan and chill it.
