Instructions //

Crust

  • Preheat oven to 400℉.
  • Lightly grease a 9 inch springform pan. Disassemble sides from bottom.
  • Cut crust ingredients together with a fork. Press half of dough onto the bottom of the greased pan. Place on a cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes. Cool.
  • Assemble sides onto pan and press the remaining dough halfway up the sides.

Filling

  • Beat together cream cheese and sugar. Add flour and salt. Beat on medium for 1 minute until smooth.
  • Add eggs and cream, beating on low speed until well incorporated.
  • Pour into pan and bake at 400℉ for 20 minutes, then reduce oven setting to 200℉ and bake for 1 hour more.
  • Turn oven off and let cool for at least 30 minutes without opening the door.
  • Remove from oven and let cool on a wire rack for 30 minutes. Run a small sharp knife around the sides to loosen.
  • Refrigerate uncovered for 3 hours until chilled.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 9 hours.

Serving

  • Arrange raspberries or your preferred toppings and serve!

Notes

  • All ingredients should be at room temperature.
  • I have had best success with not cracking by using the regular bake setting rather than convection bake.
