Mini cheesecake

food, pastry, personal, sweet tooth

Yummo, with cream cheese in the fridge I wanted something to do with it rather than wasting it. So I decided to make Mini Cheesecakes. The recipe is for 6 but ended up having enough mixture for a few more. Feel free to try this recipe.

Ingredients

250g of room temp cream cheese, – 1 tsp of vanilla extract (if you don’t have that use maple syrup, can use more than a teaspoon to bring out the maple flavour) – 1 tablespoon lemon juice – 2 eggs mix in separately – 1/2 cup caster sugar – granita biscuits for the base or choc ripple

Try not to over whip the cream cheese I made that mistake. Bake for 20 mins, 118 degrees and leave out for ten mins and then put in fridge for an hour.

Homemade smoothie turned into ice-cream

Froze 2 bananas and some strawberries the day before I made a smoothie in a glass rather than bowl.
Rather than adding sugar I used a more natural sweetener known as honey. I also added a small amount of lactose free milk as that’s better for my diet.
With enough patience this is what your aim game is.
I have also frozen some for hot days. I believe my bird approved.

Healthy choice happy self

Over the past week I have been enjoying making small healthy snacks and treats. Rather then eating break all the time I have been using cheap cracker buscuits to have salad with. For breakfast two days on a row I had pancakes(treat) with fruit salad.

The white over the fruit with the pancakes is just a little bit of thickened cream with icing sugar added in. I’m really enjoying eating a bit healthier.

Simple and Tasty

Last night I took part in making Hawaiian Scrolls for the family. Simple and Tasty, and who doesn’t love Puff pastry. This cooking experience is also a great experience for children. You can chose either sweet or savory .

If you are looking for ways to keep occupied during these tough times or just looking for something simple to make then you should try making scrolls.

200 degrees for 15 to 20 mins

Make sure you have defrosted your Puff pastry before you try to roll it as it can break.

You can use tomato or BBQ sauce I find it’s easier to apply all over with the base of the spoon. I used leggos pizza sauce. Cheese, ham and pineapple.
