For the Cheesecake
  • 8 oz Full-Fat Cream Cheese Essential for a rich texture.

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and butter a 9x5 inch loaf pan, lining it with parchment paper.
  2. Beat the full-fat cream cheese until smooth, then gradually mix in the granulated sugar until fluffy.
  3. Add the large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
