- 60g unsalted butter, melted

- 80g sugar

- 2 eggs, room temperature

- 100g all-purpose flour

- 50g milk

Steps:

1. Prepare the base: Crush digestive biscuits into crumbs (100g), mix with 30g melted butter, and press into a springform pan. Chill for 10 minutes.

2. Mix batter: Beat cream cheese until smooth, gradually add sugar and eggs, one at a time. Mix in melted butter, milk, and flour alternately, avoiding overmixing.
