Strawberry Cheesecake

Ingredients

Strawberry 10-12
Crushed cream biscuits (Chocolate or Vanilla)              
Butter 50 gms
Milk 1 1/2 cups
Cream cheese 50 gms ( I used grated mozarella cheese which I melted in the boiled milk)
Eggs 2
Whipped cream 50 gms
Sugar 1 cup
Vanilla Custard powder 1 tbsp


Directions - How to make

Heat the pan over sim flame. Melt the butter and add crushed vanilla cream biscuits to it. Mix them well and layer it to the greased baking tray to form the base.         

Now for the filling, heat the pan again. Boil 1 cup of milk, add 1/2 cup sugar and cheese to it and keep stirring till it melts. Let it cool and blend them together. Now take a bowl and beat the eggs well. Add the whipped cream to it. Now mix all together and pour it over the layer of crushed biscuits. Place the baking tray in a preheated oven (190 C or Gas Mark 5) for 25 -30 minutes. When the sides becomes brown and leaves the tray, poke a fork in the cheesecake. If the fork comes out clean it means it baked and can be taken out of the oven. Now let it cool. After cooling it, keep it in the refrigerator for 5 hours.


Finally for the topping, heat the pan. Boil 1/2 cup of milk. Dilute little vanilla custard powder into it (used as a substitute for cornstarch). Once the milk thickens add 4-5 strawberries cut into small cubes. Mash them well in the custard. Let it cool and refrigerate for an hour. Spoon this on top of the cheesecake and decorate it with sliced strawberries on top.

Keep it in the refrigerator for a while till it gets set and enjoy your strawberry cheesecake.
