Mmmmmm....Cheesecake














So, I ventured into the unknown of making my own cheesecake from scratch. Little did I know that it was going to be very time-consuming and not so cheap to make. But it was pretty good and I was satisfied with the end result. This is my lovely graham cracker crust that I pressed into my new spring-form pan. Then the wonderful cream cheese filling. And Tah-Dah! The grand finale! Wish you were all here to try it. I guess I'll just have to eat it myself.

Well done grass-hoppa! I grew up on home-made cheese-cake (hence the "medium-husky" t-shirt size I'm forced to wear!) I have a recipe that produces cheesecakes ALMOST as pretty as the one I saw on your blog. Lemme know if you're interested and I'll send you guys the recipe which includes a topping of sour-cream = metropolitan lemon cheesecake :)
