Base

  1. Line an 8" (20 cm) round springform tin with parchment paper and set it aside.

  5. Pour the melted gelatin into the whipped cream cheese. Whip with an electric mixer until smooth.
  6. Add the cream, vanilla extract, and vanilla bean seeds to the cream cheese and whip for 3 to 4 minutes. Pour mixture over the prepared base. Smooth and level the top.
  7. Allow to set for six hours or overnight, covered, in the fridge.

    Could I potentially bake this and not use gelatin?
