Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and line an 8-inch diameter springform pan with parchment paper.
Place the cream cheese, sugar, flour, and salt in a large bowl and blend together until smooth.
Scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl with a silicone spatula, then work in the eggs, one at a time, allowing each egg to fully incorporate before adding the next.
Slowly stir in the cream and vanilla.
Transfer the mixture to the prepared pan and bake until set around the edges but still wobbly towards the center* (approx. 60 to 80 minutes).
Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before removing from the pan and cutting into slices.
