It's Cheesy but I Like It!

Hi! It's me again! Since school starts on Monday the 5th of January(which is TODAY!), it will take some time till I can find the extra time to get back to this blog. Anyway, let's share my joy of success in making a cheesecake. The recipe is simple (obviously amended from yani@MyResipi), with easily-available ingredients and there is NO baking needed at all! If you are having guests, prepare this cake a day ahead for it needs refrigeration and you will end up with a store-bought lookalike (and taste-wise as well). Do try making this and you won't regret it. After all, it's a brand new year and don't you think that we deserve something very rewarding to start the new year? What say you? Till the next entry, have a jolly good, blessed and blissful year ahead! TTFN!

STRAWBERRY CHEESECAKE

Ingredients:

15 pieces of digestive biscuits

75g butter

200g cream cheese

30g caster sugar

4 tsp honey

60g strawberry yoghurt

70g fresh milk

15g/1 tbsp gelatin (I used HALALGEL brand)

3 tbsp lukewarm water

125ml whipping cream

3 tbsp lemon juice

250g strawberry filling

Method:

• Put the biscuits in a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them finely. Put in the butter and mix well.
• In a small bowl, pour the lukewarm water and put in the gelatin and stir till dissolve.
• Next, using a springform cake tin, put in the biscuit mixture and press it so it is levelled. Then, put into the refrigerator.
• In a bowl, beat the whipping cream into a soft peak consistency and keep aside.
• Using a double-boiler, melt the cream cheese, sugar and honey and stir till well-mixed over a medium heat. Next, put in the yoghurt and milk and mix again. Pour in the gelatin mixture and stir well.
• After that, put in the beaten whipping cream and lemon juice and mix again.
• Put in the strawberry filling and fold the mixture until everything is well-mixed.
• Pour this mixture onto the biscuit base and refrigerate overnight.
• Cut into wedges and enjoy!
