::Natalie 樂在廚房：：用心記載一切

很久沒做cheesecake 了

其實cheesecake在我家不太受歡迎

我自己是不吃的 除了烘好試一塊 其餘的我都不吃

老公的話也不太愛吃甜點 除非我拿給他吃 他才會吃

媽媽不吃cheese 弟弟給面子也吃了一塊而已

整個cheesecake都拿去請老公的員工吃

他們卻很愛吃 結果蛋糕不夠分

現在有人幫我吃 實在太開心了

昨天和他們一起bbq 做了satay 給他們吃

差不多70支satay和一大盒的satay醬 都被掃光了

最後我答應她們下次弄cheesetart給她們吃

食譜來自Christine's Recipe.

Ingredients:

• 250ml milk
• 250 gm cream cheese, cubed and softened at room temperature
• 60 gm butter, softened at room temperature
• 6 egg yolks
• 55 gm cake flour
• 20 gm corn flour
• 1 lemon zest (我沒放）
• 6 egg whites
• 1/4 tsp cream of tartar
• 130 gm caster sugar

Method:

1. Preheat oven to 150C (302F).
2. Use a large bowl, pour in milk. Place the bowl over simmering water. Don’t let the bottom of the bowl touch the water. Add cream cheese, stir occasionally, until completely dissolved and the mixture turns smooth. Stir in butter, till dissolved. Remove from heat. Let cool down a bit, then add the egg yolks and combine well. (Note: Make sure the mixture is not too hot, as you don’t want to cook the egg yolks at this stage.)
3. Combine cake flour and corn flour. Sift in the flours into the cream cheese mixture, a small amount at a time. Mix well between every addition, and make sure there aren’t any flour lumps. Stir in freshly grated zest. Set aside.
4. Place egg whites in a large clean bowl. (Note: Make sure there’s no oil or water in the bowl at all.) Use an electric mixer to beat the egg whites for 3 minutes, then add cream of tartar and blend again. Pour sugar in the egg whites and blend until very stiff peaks form. 
5. Fold-in the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture gently with a rubber spatula just until all ingredients are incorporated. Do not stir or beat. For a better result, fold in egg whites with a small amount at a time, at least for 3 times.
6. Pour the mixture into the two baking pans. Place the pans into another larger baking tray. Add hot water in the tray up to half way. Bake for about 50 to 60 minutes. Test with a needle or skewer that comes out clean.
7. Turn off the oven. Leave the oven door ajar for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and remove from the pans. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Chill in a fridge for about 3 hours. Enjoy!
