I am a big fan of cheesecakes. I love it!
I thought making cheesecake could be time-consuming and complicated thing but I was wrong, it’s so easy*.
*This EASY Recipe is dedicated to Michaela :D :D
There are plenty of cheesecakes recipes and types, but I really like my own one. You even don’t need any kitchen accessories to make it.
The only thing you need is a big spoon to mix…
Don’t be surprised when your cheesecake puffs up in the oven and falls after baking. This happens very often and it’s absolutely normal !!!
Easy cheesecake
Ingredients:
500g (2 cups) ricotta cheese
250g (1 cup) mascarpone cheese
120ml (½ cup) sour cream
110g (½ cup) caster sugar
2 eggs, beaten until foamy
250g plain biscuits / or chocolate biscuits
125g butter, melted
Method:
1. Process biscuits until mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs (You can use food processor or just put biscuits in a plastic bag and crush using a rolling pin). Add butter; process until just combined.
2. Using one hand, press crumb mixture evenly over base of 21-24cm spring form tin. Cover, refrigerate 30 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 180C. Beat cheese (mascarpone and ricotta) with sugar in a large bowl with electric mixer (sometimes, when I am in a hurry, I just stir all ingredients until well combined using a big spoon). Beat in eggs. Add a sour cream; beat until smooth.
4. Pour cheese mixture into biscuit crust.
5. Bake about 1 hour or until set. If top getting brown too quickly just put the aluminium foil over the top.
6. Turn oven off, cool cheesecake in oven with door ajar. Cover; refrigerate until cold.
7. You can spread top of cheesecake with melted chocolate or serve dusted with a little extra sifted icing sugar.
Enjoy :)
