My First baked cheesecake :-)

I'm a cheesecake  fanatic thus I always had to have it everytime we dine in a restaurant :)  Given the choice between it and a myriad of other desserts,  I'll choose cheesecake :)

First of all, I'm not a baker or pastry chef  (I'm a nurse :P) thus I don't have the complete paraphernalia use for baking, I used basic glass, cups and spoons and convert it "ml/oz/Kg"  :) I have a spring form pan and a rolling pin from my mom :-)

Thanks to you tube tutorials as I've gathered some baking ideas and techniques and eventually I came up with my own recipe:-P 

My First baked cheesecake turned out to be the tastier and creamier cake I've ever tasted :) Maybe I just know what I want in my cheesecake plus I chose the finest ingredients I can have for it. If you really want your cheesecake to be fabulous then choose the best ingredients :) it is so addictively delicious that you'll  be tempted to just sit down, have many slices as you want  and end up by licking your fork and plate like pupupie :P :)

Here's the Melt-in-your-mouth, tangy and sweet New york chesecake with blue berry topping  recipe that's so easy and the end result is realy spectacular ..:)

Prepare the Ingredients

Crust:

Digestive Crackers (crushed :-) as many as you want )

Butter 1/2 cup melted

1tsp of sugar

Filling:

 3 Packs of Philadelphia Cream Cheese (8 oz each)

3 eggs

1 egg yolk

1 tbs Vanilla extract: Mccormick

Nestle cream (1/4 cup) : 

Whipping cream (150ml) :

Sour cream (80 or upto 100ml) 

Table Salt (1 tsp )

Sugar  (1 cup)

All purpose flour (  1/2 cup )

Lemon zest ( 1tsp)

toppings

Sour cream 100 ml (or as many as you want)

Vanilla extract (1 tbs)

Sugar (1 tbs)

a pinch of table salt

Blueberry  (Duncan Hines) (I used Smuckers Blue berry for my 2nd cake.. so yummy too :) )

Method:

crush digestive crackers using rolling pin  (good thing my Mom has this tool :P ) ,

 Pupupie: Mami Yum yumyum  crackers :) (picture of Pupupie biting  the cracker before crushing it :P )

pour the melted butter in a bowl together with the crushed crackers

Press the mixture firmly onto the base of  9 inches spring form pan, set aside :)

preheat the oven at 350 F...

make the cheesecake filling

Beat the cream cheese on medium-low speed for 2 minutes. Scrape down the bowl, add 1/2 cup of the sugar then the 1 tsp salt and beat on medium-low speed for another 1 minute.

Scrape down the sides of the bowl, add the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar and beat again on medium-low speed for 1 minute. 

Add the all purpose flour, bearbrand milk powder, whipped cream and all purpose cream.  beat for 1 minute,

 add  sour cream, lemon zest and vanilla, beat on low speed for 1 minute, Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition just until incorporated

 Pour the prepared mixture into your prepared pan (9 inches springform  pan) bake it for 45mins (320F or less)  until a 3-inch circle in the center of the cheesecake barely jiggles.
The cheesecake center should still jiggle. (it will firm up after chilling) be careful not to over cook it.

Turn off the oven and leave the cake inside the oven with its door open for 20mins,  as cake will still continue to cook even the oven turned off and it can prevent the cake from cracking.

Place the pan on a wire rack and cool for 15 minutes, then run a paring knife around the cake to loosen it from the pan.

What's great about cheesecake is that you can top it with anything you want :) but since this is my first time, i chose sour cream with vanilla and blueberries as toppings :)

Combine sour cream, sugar and vanilla spread on top of the almost-baked cheesecake, then return to the oven for 5 mins to finish baking.

(you may opt not te remove the spring form pan when putting the sour cream topping)

Pupupie checking the  cake :) turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake again in the oven with door open for  10 minutes while preparing for the blueberry toppings :)

Place the blueberries & sugar and in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.  I want my blue berry topping be so sweet :)  cool for 5 minutes :)

Remove the cake from the oven, let the cake cool for 25 minutes then you may now  put the bluberry topping on cake :)

( you can leave the metal bottom under the cheesecake and place it on a serving plate.)

Pupupie and TeddyMayheart as my tasters :)

the cheesecake can be refrigerated for up to 4 days :)

thanks Pupupie :)

Haters gonna hate

Whatever you do in life, haters are always gonna hate.  What is a "hater"?  Usually someone who leads a very miserable and sad life, dedicating their days to putting others down and obsessing over the details of their lives, to try and make themselves feel better about their own problems and insecurities.

Its funny how some1 whose meant to know you well, ends up being someone who misunderstands you the most... ARGH
How can one person be so selfish... its them who done wrong... but instead of thinking oh i wanna be right now... they go and think your doing something worst... is that how they feel better about themselves? does that make them feel 'oh i didnt do as wrong as u, what i did was just minor'... cus that really makes you a better person... that isnt what you call caring for someone.. YOU FOOL!
Whenever they have done something that i dont see as 'right'.. i always give myself time to try and think in their position... i always try and figure out why they act that way... i try and understand them... i try and think in their perspective... and so far i have been able to push things aside and let go... but this time... how dare you accuse me of something i havnt done.. instead of correcting YOUR WRONG.. you go and accuse me... seriously... why do i even bother thinking in their perspective... why do i even bother trying to understand them...
 F THIS.
