Simple vanilla Cheesecake
I accidentally made this after my eldest son discovered cheesecake in the summer holidays. I’m all for treats, but more so when I’ve made them myself & know exactly what went into it. I’m done with huge cakes so tend to make it a lower profile so they aren’t eating a 15cm high piece of cake.
CHEESECAKE INGREDIENTS
250g block cream cheese
130g caster sugar (I know I know, you’re shook I used the “s word” - I had some leftover from late last year & didn’t want to waste it).
75g cottage cheese (can you count this as protein gainzzzzz if it’s in a cake?)
2 eggs
15g plain flour
2 teaspoons Vanilla
BASE
200g biscuit of choice
60g butter
