Baked in a water bath to ensure an even, velvety texture, its golden-brown surface adds a hint of caramelized flavor, making it irresistibly delicious.

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar using a spatula until smooth. Add the eggs and cornstarch, and whisk until the mixture forms a uniform batter.

  2. In a separate bowl, melt the white chocolate and heavy cream together in the microwave for 1 minute, stirring until fully blended. Gradually add the cream cheese batter into the melted chocolate mixture and mix well.

  3. Prepare a baking tray by placing a tiffin (or cake mold) in the center. Pour the batter into the tiffin. Fill the tray with hot water to create a water bath.

  4. Bake in a preheated oven at 170°C for 50 minutes. Once baked, allow it to cool completely before serving.
