Matcha Burnt Cheesecake

Today's RECIPE is the easiest cheesecake to bake...perfect for a first time bake. It's so easy that it's perfect even when it's burnt! :) Jokes aside, this Basque Burnt Cheesecake is intentionally burnt for its unique flavor...giving it a bitter outer layer and extra creamy insides. This cheesecake originated from Basque County in Spain, in a little cafe called La Vina located in the capital city of San Sebastian. It's a crustless cheesecake with a goey center....which tastes heavenly! Caution...take this in little bites and small portions.(high calorie content!!!). Today’s bake is a variation as I have added matcha powder to make it a Matcha Basque Burnt Cheesecake.
