Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cream the softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl using an electric mixer on medium speed for 3-5 minutes until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Gradually add granulated sugar to the cream cheese mixture, mixing for another 2-3 minutes until fully incorporated.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing gently until just combined.
  4. Add heavy cream and vanilla extract, mixing on low speed for about 30 seconds until blended.
  5. Sift in the all-purpose flour and a pinch of salt, folding into the mixture gently until no lumps remain.
  6. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  7. Line a 9x5 inch loaf pan with parchment paper, allowing for overhang on the sides.
  8. Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  9. Bake for 50-60 minutes until the top is browned and the center jiggles slightly.
  10. Turn off the oven and crack the door open to cool the cheesecake for about 1 hour.
  11. After cooling, let it come to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  12. When ready to serve, lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment overhang and slice.
