Create a show-stopping twist on a classic dessert with our Basque cheesecake baking class in NYC -– perfect for autumn dessert lovers. You’ll learn how to take the spiced custard of a traditional pumpkin pie and transform it into the rich, creamy texture of a Basque-style cheesecake, complete with its signature caramelized top.
Guided by our friendly instructor, you’ll master the art of preparing a smooth, flavorful custard base. You’ll also discover the secrets of the Basque baking method, from lining your pan for best results to achieving the perfect high-heat bake. This technique creates the golden, crackled top that gives the cheesecake its classic look and signature taste.
By the end of class, you’ll head home with a beautifully baked Basque Cheesecake and the skills to recreate this decadent dessert. Impress guests at your next fall gathering, or savor with a steaming cup of coffee on a crisp autumn evening.
