One thing to note about cheesecake making is you typically don’t want to put to much air into it by using the whisk attachments. You’ll get a cheesecake with no cracks if you just slowly mix the ingredients together with a spatula. Wisking is fine, but be very liberal with how long you mix for. I realize this recipe doesn’t really require a smooth surface as you’re going to be making a caramel topping anyway. This is more of shared wisdom for those who’ve never made cheesecake
Vorrei fare questo dolce, ma non so di preciso cosa sia l'ingrediente chiamato Speculoos biscoff spread. In Italia esiste il caramello al latte oppure la marmellata di latte. Potrebbe essere lo stesso?
I think I ended up preferring just a normal cheesecake over the brulee version -- the brulee version does look nice, and gives you that slight taste of burnt caramel (which is very nice), but the silky, homogenous texture you get from the normal variety is something I ended up really missing in the end Great product though, nonetheless!
Only 3 eggs. A regular cheese cake uses 4 eggs. Please tell me how this is a Crème Brûlée Cheesecake. What it actually looks like is a regular cheesecake with torched sugar top. There is absolutely no Crème Brûlée in this recipe.
I make this recipe but use 3 eggs and 3 egg yolks. I make a pumpkin cheesecake that also uses 3 eggs + 1 yolk. Standard recipes online use 4 eggs, but depending on the recipe you can get by with 3. I've also made a creme brulee cheesecake with 1 whole egg and 9 yolks.
This is just a regular cheesecake that has been coated in sugar and torched. It has nothing in common with actual crème brûlée. You could do the same thing with an amaretto cheesecake. Then call it an amaretto crème brûlée cheesecake. When that is clearly not the case.
