Cheesecake

Cheesecake, need I say more?

Ok, here's the story: I've always LOVED cheesecake and I've always wanted to make one. But I never really liked the box-store ones. And I've heard that to make a real big cheesecake from scratch is hard. As most of you know, I love such challenges =D

SO! I cleared my schedule for a day and began the journey. Let me tell you, I loved it!

I had to research A LOT to figure how to make a perfect, not-too-cheesy, not-too-creamy, level luscious cheesecake.

It took me 2 days to finish (well, most of that time is the chilling/baking time) I had to bake it for hours! and chill it overnight.

The end result: Everyone loved it! It was gone in 30 minutes.

  2. you know, looks aren't everything! judging that something looks good or bad is subjective, what you may think looks good and tasty i might find disgusting!
    and you can't judge weather a cake 'was really better' simply by seeing a picture, because at the end of the day a cake has to be EATEN to make such a judgement, you know! ultimaltely this is the whole point of baking!!! you'd have to try your own cake and Diana's to be able to give such a statement. thus, you making such a statement shows that you have no taste or experience in the field whatsoever!!!
    THUS keep your smart comments to yourself!

    PS: if you feel like insulting, at least have the guts to show yourself instead of hiding like a coward..

    Diana, keep the great work going, I always get hungry when i see your posts :) Such people are just jealous and trying to hurt you...
    RESPECT for all the great work!
