    💡Press down with the bottom of a glass: a dense, even crust doesn't crumble when you slice the cake.

To assemble

  1. 3
    Preheat the oven to 160°C (320°F).
    ⚙ Preheating the OvenOven
    💡Put things in the oven only once it's reached temperature, after the heating light has gone off: an oven that hasn't reached temperature changes baking times, and the bake burns outside or stays underbaked.
  2. 4
    Whip the cheese with the sugar to a smooth cream.
    ⚙ WhippingBowlHand mixerorStand mixerorWhisk
  3. 5
    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing after each one just until it is absorbed.
  4. 6
    Add the cream, gluten-free flour blend and vanilla and mix on low speed, just until the mixture is uniform.
  5. 7
    Pour the mixture over the base in the pan.
    Baking pan
  6. 8
    Bake 50–55 minutes, until the edges are set and the center just wobbles slightly.
    ⚙ BakingOvenBaking pan
    💡Run a knife around the edges halfway through baking and again when it comes out of the oven: the cake shrinks as it cools, and edges that stick make it crack.
    💡Check by the cue (until…), not just the clock: every oven bakes a little differently.
  7. 9
    Turn off the oven, open the door slightly and leave the cake inside 1 hour.
    Oven
    💡Gradual cooling in the turned-off, open oven keeps the top of the cake smooth, without cracks.
  8. 10
    Chill in the fridge at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
    Refrigerator
  9. 11
    Serve the cake with the raspberries and blueberries arranged on top.
