Ingredients (
Water glass measurement: 200 ml,
Cake pan: 20 cm)
For the Pumpkin:
600 g pumpkin,
150 g granulated sugar (1 cup minus 1 finger's width)
Soak in sugar overnight; the pumpkin will release its juice the next day. Cook over low heat until softened.
For the Cheesecake:
400 g cream cheese (drained)
, 200 ml cream (1 small package)
, 120 g granulated sugar (1 cup minus 1.5 fingers' width)
, 20 g flour (2 tablespoons, but not heaped),
5 g vanilla (1 package),
2 medium eggs.
For the Base:
200 g biscuits (1.5 packages),
50 g melted butter.
Crush the biscuits and mix with the butter. Press down on the bottom of the pan to flatten (I have a cake press).
For the cheesecake, mix the sugar, cream, and granulated sugar. After adding the eggs, don't overmix; just mix well (overmixing will cause cracking). Finally, sift in the dry ingredients and mix. Roll the mixture thinly. Strain the pumpkin and place it in the oven. The most important thing is cooking it! 🤓 Preheat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius (without the fan). Place a bowl of water in the oven; it must be steamed (to prevent cracking). I cooked it for exactly 55 minutes. Don't take it out of the oven immediately; let it stay in the oven for about 25 minutes after turning off the oven (sudden temperature changes can also cause cracking). After 25 minutes, open the oven door and let it sit for another 20 minutes. Then, once it reaches room temperature, put it in the refrigerator. After 4 hours, mash the remaining pumpkin into a puree and spread it on top.
