No fanciful kitchen equipments? No Fret. This is an easy-to-do
non-bake Cheesecake that requires no electrical mixer or oven. Best
of all, no baking experience needed!
I was inspired by my wonderful friend J, who brought a
Strawberry Cheesecake to my recent BBQ party & I
decided to make one to celebrate my students’ graduation. Except
for few similar comments from 2 other girlfriends - Strawberry
Cheesecake base too hard, cheese too little & gelatine too
thick; the cake was lovely especially the presentation. My
girlfriends said they’ve tried better ones & would pass me the
recipes but I waited in vain for more than a week. Patience soon
ran out & I decided to create my own based on my previous
Choc Crumbles Party
Recipe & keeping in mind the above comments.
The result: The Peachy Lemon Cheesecake was better than expected
& my students love it! I'd made 2 trays for my class of 15,
wishing them Success in their Career. It was indeed an effort
worthwhile.
As it was my 1st attempt, I chose an economical fruit which is
peach. As can peaches are too sweet, I decided to add lemon &
zest to the cake to balance the taste & to add fragrant. It was
a perfect combination. Only setback, I couldn’t serve the cakes
straight from the refrigerator.
I took the cake out & left my home around 6pm that day as my
class started @ 6.30pm; waited till our 8pm break before serving
them. My heart was pounding as I was afraid the jelly could not
hold due to our hot climate. Thankfully, it was ok except that it
would be much nicer if eaten chilled.
