How to make Woolworth Cheesecake:

We list all the ingredients and turn on the oven to preheat it to 180 ºC.

Having this ready, we start by making the base for the Cheesecake. To do this, take the cookies and crush them with the mixer until they are very fine, almost powdered. Add the softened butter and mix well until you get a homogeneous and uniform dough.

Then add the dough to a special removable baking pan and press with your fingers on the bottom and walls until it is an even layer. Bake the dough for about 15 minutes.

Remove the cheesecake base from the oven and raise the temperature to about 200 ºC.

Next, it is time to make the cream cheese. Then, beat the cheese for about 30 seconds, add and beat the sugar, flour, zest, vanilla, eggs, egg yolks, and finally, the cream.

When you have a completely integrated and homogeneous mixture, pour it into the mold and put it in the oven.

After the first 15 minutes of cooking the Cheesecake, lower the oven temperature to 100 ºC and continue cooking for 1 hour.

Then, turn off the oven and leave the cake inside for another hour with the oven door ajar.

Finally, remove the American Cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature. Unmold and cover it to taste with blueberry jam or red fruit jam.

Reserve in the refrigerator for a couple of hours, and it is ready to taste.
