Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and sugar. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 2–3 minutes.
  3. Add eggs one at a time, beating on low after each addition for about 30 seconds.
  4. Gently fold in heavy cream, followed by flour and salt until no dry flour remains.
  5. Grease a loaf pan and line it with parchment paper, allowing some overhang.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
  7. Bake for 45 minutes, until golden-brown and the center jiggles slightly.
  8. Cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
  9. Lift out using parchment overhang, slice, and garnish with toppings.

Notes

Using full-fat cream cheese ensures a rich and creamy texture. Let eggs reach room temperature before adding for a smoother batter. Keep an eye on baking time for the perfect texture.
