Which is best? Baked or cold set? Unsurprisingly I love them both...cheesecakes are just simple and make a great unpretentious treat or dessert. Ever tried a proper homemade baked cheesecake? The recipe I'm about to give you will have you grinning in sheer delight. Luscious creamy softly set with a crumbly base and tangy sweet fruity top.
I made these baked cheesecakes in little rings and they were a great little dessert for my dinner party.
So my recipe is for an 8inch ring mould and should be baked for 40min at gas mark 1/2 in a preheated oven. I've adjusted my timings because my cheesecakes were in small ring moulds but the key is it'll go lightly golden on top when done and will still have a slight wobble.
For the base: the fun bit which I like to call stress reliever...smash 200g digestive biscuits and then stir in 100g of melted butter and press into the tin.
The cheesy bit couldn't be simpler, add vanilla essence/ bean paste to the cream cheese and beat then add in all the other ingredients and with an electric mixer, beat till smooth.
Here are the ingredients:
500g cream cheese
1/2 lemon (juice only)
3 eggs
56g flour
75ml double cream
197g caster sugar
Vanilla essence
Once the cheesecakes are baked, add a thin layer of smooth jam and place your chosen fruit on top.
Delicious!!
