Happy Birthday!

My Danna's birthday is last Saturday! I ask him what do he wan for his birthday, he say he would like a homemade cake by me. And after giving some thought, he decide on Cheesecake~ He even specify he "don't want the sponge sponge one, is the thick thick creamy one."

Aiya, it means NY cheesecake lah, not japanese cheescake lah.

I though of the no-bake cheesecake. but the cheese cream taste much like custard cream then cheese cream. So baked, I must.

I google many many recipes on cheese cake before settling for this one from hundred eighty degrees. No prize for guessing my favorite place for cheesecake. And the result is great! Although the surface of the cheesecake crack =(

I manage to use fresh strawberries and jam sauce to cover them up. I add some gelatine so the sauce will hold up the strawberries. And the end result:

And off we go for KTV on Friday to celebrate his day. :)

The $10 KTV club at Aranda Country Club is awesome. We get free flow drink and 3hrs of KTV, it had been a blast! And the folks love my cheesecake. THJ even ask me if it is really baked by me, he say he would have believe this is store bought. =D whee~baking skill level up!

Yumm Yummy~

And tml is my birthday, but I'm too egar to try out a new recipe. I was thinking if I could combine two of my favorite things together for my birthday, they are lava cake and matcha. I tried to modify from the original chocolate recipe, and I only found this today. =_= Oh well, why did I just assume there is no one as crazy as me to make a matcha lava cake? I should have know that japanese are capable of everything awesome.

Happy 29th!

Apart from still too liquid (should have place in the oven for longer instead of 8 mins!), and a tad sweet (need to reduce the sugar by 1/2 I think, the white chocolate chip from phoon huat is just too sweet). It is amazing. tasting matcha and chocolate in my favorite way is just too good to tell ya.

I can't wait to perfect this cake. I will find the perfect mix for it.
