Chocolate Chip Cheesecake

Here's the recipe for the chocolate chip cheesecake I mentioned earlier!

Got this recipe from Fantastic Cheesecake - Kek Keju Hebat by Alex Goh. My auntie gave it to us cos she doesn't have use for it hahahaha. Made some adaptations. For the base I used leftover digestive biscuits instead of the recipe's Oreo base. Like any digestive cheesecake base, crumble the digestive biscuits and mix with melted butter and press on the base of the springform tin. I think I used about 80 to 100g of digestives and 80g of butter. Bake in oven 170 degrees Celsius for 12 minutes and cool.

Cheesecake:
500g cream cheese
140g sugar (hehe I ran out of white sugar so I topped up with brown sugar haha!)
20g flour
2 eggs
200g whipping cream
semi-sweet chocolate couvertures

Topping:
200g sour cream (recipe calls for 400g but I only had 200g with me)
3 tbsp condensed milk (recipe calls for 2 tbsp sugar but I ran out of sugar)
generous amount of chocolate chips!!!

Mix and cream cheesecake ingredients well. Add chocolate chips last. Pour the batter on the crust.
Bake at 170 degrees Celsius at about 45 minutes or until almost set at the centre and slightly brown on the top. Remove cake from the oven.
Mix sour cream and condensed milk until well blended and spread on the baked cheesecake.
Place the cake in the oven again, bake for 10 more minutes at 160 degrees Celsius.
Remove from the oven and sprinkle chocolate chips!
Let it cool for about an hour, then refrigerate it overnight.

Baked cheesecake without the topping. Lovely brown colour! Still have a bit of cracks here and there though.

Spread sourcream + condensed milk on top of cake! And then return it to the oven.

Cake's all baked! Now the final touches of chocolate chips!! Yum yum :)

Final product. The recipe calls for orange zest but Other Half isn't fond of citrus flavour, he likes his cheesecake ALL cheese :) The recipe is a keeper! :)

CNY Bakes

Back from the long weekend! Spent two days fully at home, cooking and baking. So happy. Day 1 was sindhi briyani and Almond London . Day 2 was ayam lemak cili padi and a batch of almost Famous Amos chocolate chip cookies , but I split the batter into 2: hazelnut, white chocolate, cranberry combination and hazelnut, dark chocolate chip combination. I made the cranberry ones first, they taste awesome. But after I ate the chocolate chip one, say bye bye to cranberry! Nothing beats chocolate. And the white chocolate chips somehow dissolved into the batter, melted. What to do, it's just white chips from Redman. I should try a better brand instead. Happy new year indeed!

White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars

I love these! It's like a blondie but to make me feel less guilty, there's oatmeal. Was supposed to make these and freeze for easy morning breakfasts, but seems like they ran out pretty quickly that it didn't require that much freezing. Original recipe here . I made these almost three months ago and I still think about making these again and again. White Chocolate Cranberry Oatmeal Bars 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats 2 cups flour 1 1/2 cups brown sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon vanilla 2 large eggs 1 1/4 cups butter melted 1 cups white chocolate chips 1 cup dried cranberries This is like one bowl mix so anything goes. Spread batter in two 8x8 square tins, bake for 22 min at 180 degrees Celsius.

Daiso Ramekins

Finally finally went to Daiso!! Wanted to go there for ages already! The first thing I came in, went to the cooking section. Found my ramekins! But they're not white. Oh wells. Can't be choosy for $2 ramekins! There were white ones, but super small white ramekins. And pie tarts too! Oooh so tempting! But I don't know when I'll make tarts hurhur. Actually I'm still thinking what I should bake using these ramekins. I remember having one of those "I wish I had ramekins right now" moments but I can't remember when. Maybe when I was making lava cake . Daiso is evil. It's so cheap you just feel like coming back again! Oh and did I mention there's a $2 weighing scale?! Measures up to a kilo but that's quite alright for baking isn't it! I mean, $2!! Dirt cheap lah. Not sure about the accuracy though. Didn't do much cleaning last weekend, very much spent lazing around at home just like what weekends should be like. I love being at ho
