So Basque cheesecake is basically burnt cheesecake...No really. This recipe comes from the restaurant in Spain that goes by the name of La Viña. Really it’s an adapted iteration of their recipe that I found online. I don’t know if I saw their actual recipe, but hey, it’s pretty darn close. The best part is that it’s so incredibly easy and quick to make unlike most cheesecakes.
