To prepare the batter, as a next step, take a mixing bowl, add cream cheese, mascarpone cheese, and sugar in it. Mix everything together on low speed for a minute or so. Make sure that sugar is dissolved completely in the batter.
Now, gradually and slowly add the condensed milk and mix it well. Add heavy cream, salt, and vanilla and mix it again nicely for a minute.
Now sift all-purpose flour and whey protein and add them to the cream cheese mixture. Mix flour and cream mixture together for another minute. Make sure that you don’t overmix them.
Transfer the batter into the baking tin and set it to bake at 200 ℃ for 45 minutes or till the top and the sides have a burnt crust.
Let the cheesecake cool down to room temperature and put it in the fridge for some time to set.
Once it is set you can then remove the parchment paper and cut your yummy cheesy cake.
