Burnt Basque Cheesecake with Cherries

4.7 from 545 cooks

A crustless cheesecake baked hot and fast until the top turns deeply caramelized, served in a pool of warm cherry sauce for contrast.

Basque cheesecake breaks every rule a normal cheesecake follows: no crust, no water bath, and an oven hot enough to scorch the top on purpose. That dark, almost bitter crust gives way to a custardy, barely-set center once you cut in. A quick cherry sauce spooned around the slice balances the char with something bright and tart.
