I decided to make a cheesecake for the second one, assumed it to be harder than the first cake (chiffon cake) i made.
Surprisingly, it's in fact, much simpler. It was made of 4 packages of cream cheese, five eggs, 3/4 cup of milk, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/8 cup of flour. The bottom part of it (the crust part) was made of digestive cookie powder (smash them!), weighing 150g, and then mashed with some melted butter.
It's simpler for I only had to made the crust, apply them to the bottom of the baking pan, and then mash everything in a big bowl with my electric mixer, then done. pour into the pan and bake.
Let's just jump to the results.
Frozen for about 3 hours after taken out of oven.
That's the first slice. At this point, the center part of the cake was still a bit jello-like. I supposed it's because the freezing duration was too short.
Frozen over night, it became more solid in texture. Although the tip part was still a bit jello-like, overall it met my expectations.
Added on strawberry, too. They taste really well together.
The weakness of this cheesecake was the center part being a bit jello-like.
I'm thinking it's either needing more flour, or need to be baked longer.
Overall, I'm satisfied with the result.
For the next cake, I'll go for the unbelievable approach.
Most likely going to make the visual property of the cake being unbelievable, but not taste.
It may look confusing, daunting, or just not making sense, we'll see how it goes.
Or, I'll take another approach of being creative on my own, which is essentially the same thing as being unbelievable, except that I won't try to make it unbelievable.
Basically, I will try to not follow a given recipe for the last cake.
Thanks for reading!
Cheesecake, how heavenly! Haha I assumed too that cheese cake must be a harder cake to make than others. I guess in the end it just take longer for the waiting. The cakes you made look very tasty and elegant as well! When I made cheesecake it just looked like a giant hefty mass XD I bet your nextt cake will turn out and taste amazing!
ReplyDeleteIt's like the best homemade cheesecake i had ever tasted. I was very impressed by your adherence of following everything strictly on the tutorial website :/ maybe that's why the cakes you made are so legit and good! For me i'd substitute brown sugar for something else or wheat for white flour etc. haha.
ReplyDeleteYumo I really wished that you had brought some of that to class, but the chocotate cake was good aswell. But thats great you made a cheesecake cuz i would think thats like really hard to make but, If you can make one than I feel more confidant that I can. The nice part of baking is that if you fallow the ingrediance to the T than there should be no problems. I like the veriety of all the things you baked, gives you a feel for how each thing is baked differently. Great job!
