Delicious Strawberry Cheesecake

I am truly a junkie when it comes to chocolates, ice-cream (Baskin-Robbins being my fav!) and of course cakes. are one of my favorites and apart from just eating them, I do try my hand at baking one once in a while. I actually find cooking/baking very relaxing and calming (go figure) and the best part of it is when the person you are baking for enjoys eating it :)


I stumbled upon a delicious recipe a long time ago and I have tweaked it over time to my own perceived perfection. Heh.

My loved ones enjoy the so much that I always have to make two batches at one go. Otherwise, there is just not enough to go around! Try it out and let me know what you think. If yours gets rave reviews then you can consider making it your home business. I know a few Moms who does food catering to offices for lunch and selling cakes, pastries and cookies as an extra income. If it is what you are good at, then exploit it! :)



Here is the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

For Crust: For Filling:
  • 15 graham crackers, crushed
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1-2tsp cinnamon
  • 4 packages cream cheese
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 cup whipped cream
  • 1 tbsp vanilla extract
    		•


    DIRECTIONS:

    1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C).
    2. Grease a springform pan.
    3. Mix cracker crumbs with melted butter, sugar and cinnamon. Press onto the bottom of the pan.
    4. Mix cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Blend in milk, then add in eggs one at a time. Incorporate well.
    5. Mix in cream, vanilla extract and flour until smooth. Pour filling into crust.
    6. Bake in oven for 1 hour. Turn off oven and let it cool. Chill in fridge before serving.

    USEFUL TIPS:

    • All ingredients must be at room temperature.
    • DO NOT overbeat the cream cheese.
    • Put another pan filled with water on the bottom of the oven rack, underneath the pan while baking.
    • DO NOT open oven door to check on the cake while it is still baking in the oven.
    • Right after baking, run a knife around the rim of the pan. Then, leave it to cool in the oven.


    I hope you and your loved ones will enjoy this delicious . If you have any recipe of your own, then please do share it with me. I always appreciate a good cake :)
