cheese

after i tasted lynet's blueberry cheesecake (lynet was my former co-teacher at feu), i've been wanting to make my own version of it. thanks to JR (miss you bakla!) for writing down all the ingredients and "how to doS" on my planner when we were at cavite four years ago =D

since i'm the official chef at our home and rain and summer loves to help me with everything,we made our very own blueberry cheesecake. whoa! no-bake.

i think rain and summer enjoyed making the cheesecake because they readily told me that when they grow up, they want to become chefs. well, it's better than rain's wish to become a janitor someday =D  (naalala ko tuloy si lester, clark at aj...janitor =D)

so if you haven't tried this one yet and you want to know the recipe for the no-bake cheesecake, here we go:

1 tbsp of gelatin dissolved in 3 tbsps water or fresh milk

sugar to taste (it depends on your taste buds if you want it
sweet or just right. i added 3 tbsp of sugar for the crust)

butter, 3/4 slice from the 200g pack

1 tbsp vanilla

2 225g cream chesse

2 250ml nestle cream - my substitute for the thick cream

1 pack crushed graham

1 can blueberry

and 1 pc of summer =D

Step 1: for the crust, spread the graham on your bowl. add the melted butter and sugar. mix well then press on a pie plate or removable bottom pan. chill for 15-20 minutes.

Step 2: for the filling, beat cream cheese and sugar until well blended. add the dissolved unflavored gelatin while it is still hot. beat to blend. in a separate bowl, whip cream until stiff and fold into cream cheese mixture.

mixer please! =D

aisa and summer - wala lang =D

Pour onto crumb-lined pan then top it with blueberries in syrup. chill for 4-6 hours. then slice! =D

before freezing - thanks to rain for licking some of the blueberries, =D
enjoy! =D
