Blueberry Cheesecake


Did I already wrote about my passion for Brussels?
No?!
Well I like it a lot!
So a couple of weeks ago I went on a "day trip" to Brussels.
I was just wandering around the city centre when I spotted a bakery called "Charli".
I decided to go for a good cup of hot chocolate and an blueberry cheesecake!
Look at this! It was to die for!


It was so good I decided to give it a go myself!


For an 18cm baking tin you will need:

For the crust

100 gr petit beurre biscuits
50 gr softened butter

For the filling

400 gr philadelphia
65 gr caster sugar
1 egg
vanilla essence 
1 tbsp maizena

Blueberry marmelade

Preheat your oven to 200°C.

Mix the biscuits with the butter in the foodprocessor until you get a crumble.

Put that crumble on the bottom and the sides of your baking tin.

Let it rest in the fridge.

In the meantime make your filling. Simply mix the ingredients together.

Now pour the filling on top of your 'crumble'.

And bake for about 25 to 30 minutes.

Let it cool down.

Put some marmelade on the top. Let it rest and cool in the fridge.



Serve!

"French" Cheesecake


Hello there!

I know it's been a while I have blogged on her, but I was busy, again.
So for my return I decided to post a new recipe that is tasty, but easy.
The only condition is that you like desserts with CHEESE. 
Oh before I forget I took major inspiration here.




So without further do, here is the (short) ingredient list:


  • 500 grams of "fromage blanc" (if you don't know what it is google it)
  • Four eggs
  • 90 grams of sugar
  • 90 grams of flour
  • Optional: one lemon
First preheat your oven to 190°.
Whisk together the fromage blanc, the egg yolks, the sugar and the flour (optional the zest of one lemon).
Whip egg whites, in a separate bowl, to firm peaks.
Add it to the first mixture. Mix it all together. And put it in a buttered and floured baking tin.
Bake in the oven for about twenty-five to thirty minutes.
Let it cool (if you can) and serve it to your hosts!


Please make this cake and leave a comment bellow telling me you loved it ;-)

The best Cheesecake

A special dessert for easter?

Make some lovely cheesecake!


I took principle inspiration from  here, but made some changes (as usual!)

You will need:

-125 grams of speculoos
-50 gr of butter
-600 gr philadelphia
-200 ml cream
-2 eggs
-1 cup of sugar
-a few drops of vanilla extract
-1/4 of maizena

Preheat your oven to 180°.

Mix the speculoos with the butter. Put it on the bottom of your mold. Let it rest in the fridge while you make the filling.

Whisk the philadelphia, cream, eggs, sugar, vanilla extract and maizena together. Don't overmix it!
Put the filling on top of the speculoos.

Bake your cheesecake 'au bain marie' between 45 minutes and 1 hour.

And you should have this:
