In this week's #PutOnASpread, Masterchef contestant and dessert expert @therese.lum shares her recipe for a burnt basque cheesecake with orange bay leaf syrup. ✨
Originating from the Basque region of Spain and invented by Santiago Rivera, this style of cheesecake is a decadent dessert option that's started to trend in the last couple of years. ✨
Unlike your classic cheesecake which has a crust, Basque burnt cheesecakes are baked at a high temperature which results in a delightfully scorched, caramelised top and a soft, rich interior. The recipe's winning formula makes it uniquely light, creamy, and delicious. 💫
Therese Lum's take on the classic dessert stars a beautiful orange bay leaf syrup which is drizzled on top and adds a fragrant flavour that perfectly complements the creamy cake. Wherever you choose to serve it, we guarantee everyone will be enamoured by this moreish treat. ✨
