Chestnut Cheesecake
- 200 grams Cream cheese
- 200 ml Heavy cream
- 150 grams Peeled sweet chestnuts
- 60 grams Sugar
- 2 Eggs
- 2 tbsp Cake flour
- 1 tbsp Rum
- 1 Chestnuts simmered in their inner skins
- 100 grams Biscuits
- 60 grams Butter
- Base: Chop the biscuits in a food processor, add the melted butter, and mix together.
- Press into the tart pan.
- Batter: First, put the heavy cream, peeled sweet chestnuts, sugar, eggs, and rum into a food processor and mix.
- Next, add the cream cheese and flour into the food processor and mix.
- It will be thick and hard to mix, but try your best to thoroughly combine all the ingredients.
- Put your desired amount of simmered chestnuts in the bottom of the pan.
- Rather than putting them right up to the edge, it looks nicer if you leave a little space.
- Slowly pour the batter on top of the chestnuts.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 170C for 30 minutes, then reduce to 160C and bake for 20 more minutes to finish.
- Once cooled, remove from the pan and wrap with plastic wrap.
- If you let it sit in the refrigerator overnight, the flavors will settle, making the cake even more delicious.
- Sweet chestnuts: This time, I used 130 g of sweet chestnuts, but the flavor of the chestnuts are a bit weak, so if you want to have a richer taste, I recommend you add more.
