Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Grease a springform pan or line with parchment paper.
Cook bacon until crisp and crumble; brown ground beef and season lightly. Drain excess fat.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then fold in cream.
Fold in cooked bacon and ground beef gently, keeping the mixture light.
Pour filling into prepared pan and smooth the top. Sprinkle additional bacon bits if desired.
Bake for 45–55 minutes, until edges are set and center slightly jiggles.
Cool completely, then refrigerate at least 2 hours before slicing.

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese for best texture.
Let it chill overnight for maximum flavor and firmer slices.
Don’t overbake to maintain creamy consistency.
