Step 1

Add room temperature cream cheese to a large bowl with sugar vanilla and sour cream and mix with an electric mixer on low speed as you don’t want a lot of air getting in to the mix

Step 2

Add cornstarch and mix then add the eggs one at a time and beat after each one. Scrape down the sides and make sure it’s all mixed well

Step 3

Crumble parchment paper then line a cheesecake tin and pour the mixture in. Give it a few taps to get out air bubbles then bake at 225 c 450 f for 45 minutes or until the top has a deep brown burnt look. Open the oven and let the cake sit there for 10 minutes then cool on a rack . Refrigerate preferably overnight but you can eat after a few hours
