Vanilla Cheesecake with Strawberries
I decided to make this cake for dessert on Mother's Day. Its a delight and yummy.
Here's the recipe.
Ingredients:-
180 gm digestive biscuits
60 gm butter
400 gm cream cheese
120 gm caster sugar
1 egg
25 gm cornflour
1 tsp vanilla essence
For Topping:-
150 ml fresh cream
150 gm mascarpone cheese
35 gm icing sugar
1 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
Strawberries or mix berries
1. Preheat the oven to 130C and line your baking tin with parchment paper.
2. For the crust, crush the digestive biscuits until you get fine crumbs and the melted butter. Mix well.
3. Press the mixture onto your prepared baking tin and pat down until level.
4. Beat the cream cheese and sugar until well mixed and add egg, beating until combined.
5. Add the cornflour into mixture and mix well.
6. Add cream and vanilla essence and mix until fully combined. Pour the mixture onto the crust and bake in a preheated oven for 1 hour and 20 minutes.
7. Remove from oven and let the cake cool in pan. Refrigerate for couple of hours and remove cake from baking mould.
To make the topping,
1. Whisk the cream until stiff peaks form and fold in the mascarpone cheese, icing sugar and vanilla essence. Mix until all combined.
2. Spread the topping onto cake and top with the strawberries. You can either glaze the strawberries with strawberry jam or simply dust with icing sugar before serving.
