Hello everyone !
I don´t know about you but I love CHEESECAKE !
Over the years I´ve gathered tonnes of recipes. I now have a drawer overflowing with them, and I couldn´t tell you which one I like best, because all of them are good. So , I´ll start by giving you the latest cheesecake recipe I´ve tried.
I felt like preparing a strawberry cheesecake to take advantage of them being in season, although you could use whatever fruit you like. There are a multitude of different ways to make a cheesecake, with mascarpone, ricotta, etc, … and the truth is, they are all great.
This cake has a biscuit base and two kinds of fresh cheese, Quark and Philadelphia. To make the base I used wholegrain oats biscuit, which go really well in this cake, and lately I´ve really enjoyed using them. But you could perfectly choose any other biscuit of your choice.
It is very simple to prepare, but it needs to be prepared well in advance as the cake needs to rest in the fridge for hours before serving it. This will bring out all the flavour and give body to the cheesecake. I recommend preparing it the day before, so the next day you´ll have a delicious creamy tasting CHEESECAKE !
I believe there are few who could resist a delicious piece of CHEESECAKE !!!
