草莓芝士果冻蛋糕 Strawberry Heart Jelly Cheesecake

情人节，我家没有庆祝的习惯。买花，我觉得浪费钱。出外吃一餐浪漫的烛光晚餐，我还是觉得浪费钱。我不是需要在特定节日的时候砸钱过日子的人。我，真的不浪漫。所以很好养！哈哈哈哈哈~

这个蛋糕其实过年前就弄了。是应三叔两夫妇（河马爸的弟弟）的要求而做的。。三叔两夫妇很喜欢这款蛋糕，每次回家前问到需要我们带什么回去，答案都是这个蛋糕。

配合情人节，选在这时候上贴，刚刚好！

樱花冻芝士蛋糕 Chilled Sakura Cheesecake

樱花，光看就浪漫。

用樱花做出来的蛋糕，当然也很浪漫。

这是第一次没有按照食谱自己乱乱拼拼凑凑。幸好出来的成品还不错。虽然我不太吃芝士蛋糕，不过这个蛋糕，光看着都满心欢喜。孩子和老公都喜欢这个蛋糕，看着他们大口大口吃，真的开心爆棚。

参考食谱有Live to Eat、夏梦家和这个

戚风的步骤做法可参考我之前的吉蒂猫黑芝麻糊戚风。

** 02/07/2013 - 更改中层冻芝士食谱卡，把忘了的主角樱花放进去了。

Mini Oreo Cheese Cake 迷你OREO芝士杯子蛋糕

I am not a cheesecake lover. But I love bake rice & pizza! LOL~ When I first saw this at  温馨小厨，my eyes blink~ They are so lovely! I wanted to do it for my kids! But the condensed milk in the ingredient list holds me back until I see Anncoo's version using whipping cream. Woohoo~! What am I waiting for? Mai tu liao~

They are so lovely, don't they? 

My kitchen smells heavenly when these little fellow are in the oven. I am totally in love with the smell that I did another batch the very next day for my husband's colleagues. Haha~ But I adjusted the recipe this time round to suit my hubby's palate.

Very nicely done piece~ ^.^

Another batch for hubby's colleague.

Recipe:
(Fully Adapt from here:)

Ingredients:
(makes 14 x 5mm diameter base soft liner) 

250g Cream cheese 

150g Whipping cream (I use 120g only for 2nd batch)

1 tsp Vanilla extract

2 Egg yolk

a pinch of cream of tartar

30g Sugar

1 tube of Oreo (137g)

2 Egg white
30 Sugar

Method:

1. Separate Oreos, leaving 14 pcs without cream intact and round. Put the rest of the biscuits together with the filling into a food processor and pulse in fine.

2. Preheat your oven (150C) and boil a pot water after this.

3. Line big muffin tin with 12 paper cups/liners. Place 1 heaped teaspoon of Oreo crumbs onto paper cups and  lightly press the crumbs to flatten with a mini roller pin/teaspoon.

4. In a large bowl, cream cream cheese and 30g sugar on low speed until smooth, put in whipping cream, vanilla extract and egg yolks and continue to beat on low speed until well combined. 

5. In another bowl, whisk egg whites until frothy, add in cream of tartar continue to beat until soft peaks. Add in 30g sugar and beat till stiff (as long as egg whites don't fall when overturned, it will be fine, no need to be pointy stiff). 

6. Fold in egg whites to cream cheese mixtures with a spatula.

7. Spoon cream cheese mixtures into prepared paper cups. Top with an oreo biscuit.

8. Bake for 20 minutes in a water bath. (my oven needs 28 mins, tested with toothpick come out clean, as in no watery cream cheese stick on the toothpick.)

9. Leave to cool in oven, door ajar. Cool completely before chilling.

10. Best chilled for 3 hours or more before serving.
