Plain Cheesecake

and so... my aunt's fren actually tasted the banana cheesecake couple of days ago and requested a plain cheesecake... didn't know it was that good to order from a novice? o.O? oh well... i didn't make plain one before so i tried it out today....



Ingredients:

(base)
110g butter
200g digestive biscuit - finely crushed
50g cornflakes - crushed
2tbsp brown sugar

(filling)
500g cream cheese
100g caster sugar
1.5tbsp + 1/2tsp powdered gelatine - dissolved in 100ml water
2 tbsp lemon juice
80g whipped topping

Method:

(Base)
1. Melt the butter in the pan. Add all other ingredients and mix well, till fragrant.
2. Pour the mixture into the a 23'inch springform cake pan and firmly pack it with a spoon
3. Refrigerated for at least 30mins

(Filling)
1. Beat cream cheese, lemon juice and sugar til smooth
2. Pour in gelatine and mix well. Stir in whipped topping
4. Pour mixture onto biscuit base and refrigerate at least 6hrs.

p.s it looks really nice after i cut it... but texture was abit harder then normal refrigerator cheesecake (mousse texture)... aunt says it feels like pudding again... perhaps i shall omit the gelatine the next time round?... but without gelatine.... will it actually set nicely?

biscuit was also abit hard this time... hmmm... if i removed the cornflakes?.... hmm.... i shall try it again soon with adjustments to be updated if successful that is..

**** actually... after leaving it out of the fridge for some time, i feel the cake was alright... its feels much softer in terms of filling and base... but it differs with different pple's point of view thou...
