- 8 4/5 oz cream cheese
- 7 1/10 oz granulated sugar
- 0.85 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp espresso powder
- 3 eggs
- a pinch salt
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 392°F (400°F). Line a 9‑inch springform pan with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
- 2In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and free of lumps.
- 3Add the granulated sugar to the cream cheese and continue beating until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
- 4Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition to ensure a uniform batter.
- 5Stir in the heavy cream, vanilla extract, espresso powder, and a pinch of salt, mixing until the batter is fully incorporated and smooth.
- 6Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- 7Bake for 45 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center still has a slight jiggle, indicating a molten interior.

- 9Once cooled, refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to set fully before serving.
