Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C). Grease the loaf pan generously with butter or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually mix in the sugar until fluffy.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Pour in the vanilla extract and salt, mix on low speed. Drizzle in the heavy cream and beat until smooth.
  5. Sift the flour into the batter and gently fold it in until just combined.
  6. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the surface.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes until the top is dark brown and the center has a slight jiggle.
  8. Cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
