Tub of mascarpone waiting to be used sits in my fridge and was contemplating if I should do another batch of kunefe, or try out a cheesecake since I have cream cheese too which is expiring soon. Also have kids' leftover biscuits to clear. These kids will say I love this snack! And keep asking for more and you need to go find them cos you didn't know they'd finish them so fast, and when you actually do stock up at home, they moved on to another snack. So. I'm left with a packet of opened, unfinished Zoo biscuits. Googled and found this recipe , so cheesecake it is! I did half the recipe and was more than enough still. This is a keeper recipe, the cheesecake is not heavy, not cheesy and the crust is oh so GOOD. Lotus biscuits, even though only 2, made a difference and almonds too! Love the nutty flavour it gives to crusts. In you go, zoo biscuits. No need for Graham crackers. Cheesecake 250g cream cheese 250g mascarpone cheese (1 tub) 2 eggs ...
Because you CAN have your cake and eat it too.
