-
1 10-ounce box shortbread cookies, such as Lorna Doone
-
1/4 cup blanched almonds, toasted
-
2 tablespoons brown sugar
-
1/2 tsp salt
-
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
-
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature
-
3 tablespoons flour
-
2 large eggs plus 1 large egg yolk
-
1 3/4 cups dulce de letche or other caramel sauce
-
Boiling water for baking
Recipe Method
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Wrap the outside of a 9-inch
springform pan with foil. Using a food processor, finely chop the cookies, nuts, brown sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Add the butter and pulse until just combined. Press into the bottom of the prepared pan and bake until set, 10-12 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool. Lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees.
2. Using a mixer, beat the cream cheese until softened, 2 minutes. Beat in the flour and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt on low speed. Beat in the eggs and egg yolk, 1 at a time, on medium speed. Mix in 1 cup dulce de leche.
3. Pour the batter into the crust. Loosely cover the pan with foil, set in a roasting pan and pour in enough boiling water to reach a depth of 1 inch. Bake the cheese cake until set at the edges but slightly wobbly in the center, about 55 minutes.
4. Transfer the cake to a rack; let rest for 15 minutes. Spread the remaining 3/4 cup dulce de leche over the warm cake. Refrigerate until ready to serve, then remove the springform and slice the cheesecake.
