Pamper Your Family And Your Taste Buds By Making This Stupendous Dessert
Want to hear something funny? Until just a couple of years ago, I had never baked a cheesecake. It’s true!
I love a classic cheesecake but I had never tried making one myself. My sister-in-law makes the most amazing cheesecakes so I just asked (begged and bribed) her to make one whenever there was a special occasion and I wanted to serve a mouth-watering dessert. But then a couple of years ago she gave me a springform pan and a cheesecake recipe for a present…
I asked if she had gotten tired of making me all these cheesecakes but she just laughed and said she wanted me to realize it was super easy to make one. So we set up a date and made three different kinds of cheesecakes together – she was guiding me through the whole process and she was right! It wasn’t nearly as difficult as I had thought.
These days I make all kinds of cheesecakes but I think the classic recipe she gave me, is still my favorite. Give it a try and let me know how it turned out for you!
I still use this cheesecake recipe all the time, with small variations. For example, when I made this for Christmas, I used gingerbread cookies for the crust. It turned out amazing!
Sometimes I like to add a layer of strawberry jam on top of the cake before I let it chill in the refrigerator for a few hours. You could use any kind of jam you like, or just serve the jam separately, if your guests would like to add it. My husband is not a fan of desserts but he says he could eat half of this cheesecake in one go!
