Auntie Dolly's Cheesecake - it makes you faaat!

Ingredients 101!

Cake
A
500g cream cheese
50g butter
50g sugar
-----------------------
50g plain flour
3 egg yolk + 1 whole egg

B
70g sugar
3 egg white

125ml yoghurt
peach slices/blueberry jam/or nth if you like it intense


Biscuit Base
150-200g oreo/digestivebiscuit/mariebiscuit+cinnamonpowder+sugar+choppedmacadamia
50-75g butter

The Way To Go! :

1st-ly. prep biscuit base. ground the biscuits into powdery form. if using marie biscuits, which r like blah: boring, plain, absolutely tasteless, add some cinnamon powder n sugar to save the day. for the uninitiatedly-without-common-sense peeps, remove e oreo fillings before pounding. pls throw it away, dont eat it or aunty will smack you. it's for your own good, you know? oh yeh, as you hv guessed by now, aunty's favourite base is e digestive biscuit one, cos it's well...aunty. ok i shall stop digressing. next mix powdered biscuits well with th butterrr, till can hold together(of sort) or till (shiny?) next, line ur baking tin (shit i can rmb e dimensions) and press biscuit to form a base. if u like it fruity, arrange e peach slices onto e base and put it into e freezer to set.

2nd-ly. mix A well at low/medium speed, till creamy. Then shift in e flour and mix well too. Add in the egg yolks and beat at low speed as well. hmm, nice n creamy, but not too creamy now.

3rd-ly. In a clean dry mixing bowl, (read:evrything incl beaters must be oil-free, k? if not aunty will smack you. it's for your own good know? Beat B (at low speed) till stiff, white peaks form.

4th-ly. Slowly, fold B into A, 1/3 at a time. Lastly, fold in the yoghurt as well.

5th-ly, Pour the batter into the tray. place into the oven preheated at 175^C, and remember to waterbath the oven tray!

6th-ly. Wait patiently for 30-35 mins. meanwhile do your aunty things to pass time. Then switch off the oven, and leave the cake inside to rest for another 1 hr.

7th-i-cant-wait-to-end-ly. remove from oven it should be nicely browned. chill in fridge and best served after a night(8hrs), that's what i read. patience is a virtue.

Finallyyyy, if the cake looks damn ugly, ie unsightly cracks and uneven surface, camouflage with blueberry toppings. simple and easy. best of all, the idiots won't ever feel a tiny bit suspicious, cause it looks so pretty now!

hope you young ppl arent bored/worn out by my aunty talk.

cheers,
