Basque Cheesecake, or Tarta de Queso Vasca, is a crustless, ultra-creamy baked cheesecake known for its deeply caramelized top and lightly browned edges. Made with cream cheese, eggs, heavy cream, and sugar, it’s baked at a high temperature to achieve a toasty, burnt-looking surface while keeping the center lusciously soft.

Originating in the Basque city of San Sebastián, specifically at La Viña restaurant, this cheesecake defies tradition by being rustic, imperfect, and incredibly rich. It has become a modern dessert trend in restaurants around the world.

It’s typically served at room temperature, with no toppings, letting the bold flavor and texture speak for itself.
