Peach Cheesecake

- prep time:
- 20 minutes
- total time:
- Cooking time: 70 minutes
This is from an original recipe from a friend of a friend (Azifah). Again I have made some changes to suit my taste..
ingredients
- I use an 8 inch square cake tin (the one that you could easily remove the bottom). You can also use a springform pan.
- The base
- I have decided not to follow the original recipe with the flour base. Instead use the digestive biscuit and butter. But when I tried it, I have overestimated the amount...so the base turns out quite thick. So the best bet would be the below amount for the base:
- 1.5 cups crushed digestive biscuits
- 4.5 to 5 tablespoons of butter (melted)
- The basic is 1 cup of digestive biscuits to 3 tablespoons of butter (melted). You could put more butter if you like the base to be harder. For this recipe, 1.5 cups would have been just nice. I use McVities Digestive Biscuits.
- The Filling
- I specifically followed the recipe...excellent texture and taste..not too sweet or too creamy.
- Ingredients A
- 500gm cream cheese (Philadelphia cream cheese of course)
- 120 gm icing sugar (about 0.9 cups)
- 20 gm corn flour (about 2 tablespoon)
- Ingredients B
- 3 eggs (150gm)
- 100ml Whipping Cream (I used Paul’s Thickened Whipping Cream - the only halal one I can find)
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- The Fruit
- 1 tin sliced peach (I use Ayam Brand - halal) - drained from syrup
- The Topping
- I followed the recipe and found that the topping amount is too much. I am giving the recipe only for half the topping...u can double up if u like;
- 25 gm icing sugar (about 4 tablespoon or less)
- 50 gm plain flour (half cup)
- 50 gm chopped walnut (less than half cup)
- 30.25 gm butter (2.5 tablespoon)
directions
- 1

- 2

Mix all up until it resembles breadcrumbs
- 10
Putting it together
- 11
- Pour half of the mixture into the pan
- 12
- Arrange the peaches as you please (whose going to know ur pattern right?)
- 13
- Pour the other half of mixture, covering all the peaches
- 14
- Sprinkle topping to cover the top surface of cheese filling
- 15
Bain marie bake the cake at 160 deg C for 60 - 70 minutes.
- 16
I have a convection oven, so I baked at 150 deg C at exactly 70 minutes.
- 17
Cool it and just runs the knife around the pan to loosen the cake...this is to make sure the cake will not crack when you refrigerate.
- 18
Refrigerate 12 hours (the best)...serve...
