Culinary Creations: Sweet stuffs!

Recommended Posts

Very nicely done!

Reminds me of the fondant work I had to do in class last time. Btw, did you have any problems drying it? Usually commercially available fondant requires dry conditions to completely dry and set but M'sian humidity can wreak havoc on it. If it's too humid, the fondant could end up sweating or cracking. =.=

Must try the marshmallow version - have always had the recipe but too lazy to make. XD

There u go, happy baking!

Recipe adopted from hungry hamster

Ingredients :

125 g cream cheese

20 g butter

40 ml milk ( I do not have fresh milk so I am using instant milk)

3 egg yolks

40 g cake flour

1/4 tsp salt

1 tbs lemon juice( I omitted this cuz I am out of lemon in the house)

1/2 tsp grated lemon rind( I omitted this cuz I am out of lemon in the house)

3 egg whites

70 g caster sugar

1/4 tsp cream of tartar

1 tbs apricot jam( optional, I prefer plain cheesecake)

Preheat the Oven at 160 degrees. Melt the butter, cream cheese, and milk on a double boiler, leave to cool slightly. In a large bowl, beat together egg yolks, salt, lemon juice, lemon rind, and cake flour together until well mixed. In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Slowly add in the sugar and continue beating until soft peaks form, and the mixture is glossy.

Slowly fold in the egg white batter into the egg yolk mixture, 1/3 at a time, until incorporated. Pour into an 8 inch springform tin and bake in a waterbath for 30-40 min or until cooked when inserted with a skewer. Remove from the mould immediately to prevent the cake from sinking. Mixed the apricot jam with a bit of water and warmed it in the microwave. Brush the apricot jam all over the top of the cheesecake to give it a glossy finish. Refrigerate after cooling.

Hi hi!

My first attempt at baking since a long long time. I tried the Japanese Cheesecake and also egg tart.

Japanese Cheesecake - Not as fluffy and cotton soft as the real thing but tasted OK.

Egg tarts - Am not very good at lining the dough into the mould so the crust was a bit too thick haha, looks like a plate more than a bowl!!

but in the pictures it looks really nice hahah

Definitely need more practise :)
