Wah buat penggemar coklat dan cheesecake yang satu ini bisa memuaskan selera deh. Apalagi kalau didinginin dulu di fridge.. wah.. bisa melted deh.. yummy! Makasih banget buat silvi yang udah ngasih buku ini.. tunggu aja sharing resep2 lainnya dari buku handal ini ;)

Source: The Complete Book of Cookies - Chaterine Atkinson

Makes 16

For the Cheesecake Mixture
1 egg
225g/8 oz/1 cup full fat cream cheese
50g/2 oz/ 1/4 cup Caster (superfine) sugar
5ml/1 tsp Vanilla Essence (extract).

For the Brownie Mixture
115g/4 oz dark (bittersweet) chocolate (minimum 70 per cent cocoa solids).
115g/4oz/ 1/2 cup unsalted butter
150g/5oz/ 3/4 cup light muscovado (brown) sugar
2 eggs, beaten
50 g/2oz/ 1/2 cup plain (all-purpose) flour

Drirections

1. Preheat the oven to 160 C. Line the base and sides of a 20 cm/8in cake tin (pan) with baking parchment.

2. To make the cheesecake mixture, beat the egg in a mixing bowl, then add the cream cheese, caster sugar and vanilla essence. Beat together until smooth and creamy.

3. To make the brownie mixture, melt the chocolate and butter together in the microwave or in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water. When the mixture is melted, remove from the heat, stir well, then add the sugar. Add the eggs, a little at a time, and beat well. Gently stir in the flour.

4. Spread two-thirds of the brownie mixture over the base of the tin. Spread the cheesecake mixture on top, then spoon on the remaining brownie mixture in heaps. Using a skewer, swirl the mixture together.

5. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until just set in the centre. Leave to cool in the tin, then cut into squares.

My Review:
1. Cheese Cream usahakan dibiarkan pada suhu ruang dulu sebelum dicampur agak tercampur rata.
2. Karena adonan cheesecake lebih padat dan berat dibandingkan adonan coklat, ketika memasukkan adonan Cheesecake di atas adonan brownie, gunakan sendok makan lalu taruh di beberapa tempat baru ratakan dengan spatula. Kemudian baru di swirl dengan sisa adonan brownie.

No Bake Cheese Cake With Blueberry Topping

Lagi2 Cheese cake maaf ya.. mudah2an gak pada bosen. Tapi kali ini gak perlu deh nyalain oven buat nyenengin keluarga.. cuma mix.. trus masukin ke fridge semalaman dan nikmatin deh.. Mmmm lovely dessert..

Lagi2 sumber resep gak ada *sigh* ini dari hasil browsing sana sini di folder kumpulan resep Gw. Gw pakein topping bluberry biar tambah owkeh..


Work Time: 25 minutes

Chilling Time: 2 1/2 to 3 hours

Total Time: 3 to 3 1/2 hours


INGREDIENTS
2 packages (20 sheets) graham crackers
11 tablespoons (1 3/8 sticks) unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
2 8-ounce packages cream cheese, room temperature
1 14-ounce can (1 1/4 cups) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract


TOOLS
Rolling pin
Mixing bowls
Measuring spoons
9-inch springform pan
Electric mixer
Measuring cups
Rubber spatula

1. Put graham crackers in a large resealable plastic bag, and crush them with a rolling pin until very fine crumbs form.

2. Pour crumbs into a medium bowl; stir in sugar. Add butter, and stir until well combined.

3. Press the crumb mixture into a 9-inch springform pan, spreading it 1 1/2 to 2 inches up the side; press flat. Chill crust in freezer at least 10 minutes

4. Meanwhile, make the filling: Using an electric mixer set at medium-high speed, beat the cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Beat in the condensed milk a little at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Beat in the lemon juice and vanilla.

5. Pour the filling into the crust; smooth the top with a rubber spatula. Cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until firm, 2 1/2 to 3 hours*). (menurut Gw sih paling bagus di masukin fridge semaleman biar lebih gampang stable). Karena gue buka setelah 3,5jam juga masih kurang mantap.

BlueBerry Topping ala Ami

2. 1/2 sachet agar2 swallow warna merah.
3. 4 sendok munjung gula pasir

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour two 9 inch, round, cake pans; cover bottoms with waxed paper.
In a large bowl, combine flour, 2 cups sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add eggs, milk, oil, and 1 tablespoon vanilla; beat until well blended. Pour batter into prepared pans.
Bake for 35 minutes, or until wooden toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool layers in pans on wire racks 10 minutes. Loosen edges, and remove to racks to cool completely.

Happy Bday Bapak!

Blueberry Raspberry Lattice Pie

Buat Suami yang kepengen di bikinin Blueberry Pie di Bdaynya. Akhirnya gue pake resep dari Betty Crocker. BIkin malam sebelum hari H udah habis setengah Pienya..
Dijamin bikin nambah2 terus. Berhubung suami minta Blueberry Pie Gue Modifikasi buahnya gak dicampur raspberry. Trus gue juga pake Blueberry in syrup jadinya gulanya gue kurangin 1/3 takaran resep.

Prep Time:30 min
Start to Finish:1 hr 30 min
Makes:8 servings

Pastry
2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons shortening
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
4 to 6 tablespoons cold water

Filling
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, if desired
2 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
2 1/2 cups fresh raspberries
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 tablespoons butter or margarine


1. Heat oven to 425ºF. In medium bowl, cut shortening into flour and salt, using pastry blender or crisscrossing 2 knives, until particles are size of small peas. Sprinkle with cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with fork until all flour is moistened and pastry almost cleans side of bowl (1 to 2 teaspoons more water can be added if necessary).

2. Gather pastry into a ball. Divide pastry in half and shape into two flattened rounds on lightly floured surface. Roll pastry into circle 2 inches larger than upside-down 9-inch pie plate with floured rolling pin. Fold pastry into fourths; place in pie plate. Unfold and ease into plate, pressing firmly against bottom and side.

3. In large bowl, mix sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Gently stir in blueberries and raspberries. Spoon berry mixture into pastry-lined pie plate. Sprinkle with lemon juice. Cut butter into small pieces; sprinkle over berry mixture.

4. Roll second round of pastry; cut into strips 1/2 to 1 inch wide. (Use a pastry wheel for decorative strips.) Place 5 to 7 strips across filling in pie plate. Weave a cross-strip through center by first folding back every other strip going the other way. Continue weaving until lattice is complete, folding back alternate strips each time cross-strip is added. (To save time, do not weave strips. Simply lay second half of strips across first strips.) Trim ends of strips. Fold trimmed edge of bottom pastry over ends of strips, building up a high edge. Seal and flute.

5. Cover lattice top with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning; remove foil for last 10 minutes of baking. Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until crust is golden brown and juice begins to bubble through lattice crust.
High Altitude (3500-6500 ft) Remove foil for last 5 minutes of baking.
