How to use Razor syntax in ASP.NET Web Application (not MVC)

Question

How does one create a .cshtml page in an ASP.NET web application? The option to choose Razor is obvious when using MVC - it appears when adding a view. But I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this in a plain ASP.NET Web Application. Is it even possible?

Create an HTML file and rename it to CSHTML.

Although Razor pages don't appear in the Add New Item list, they work fine in normal web projects.
