What’s it all about?

Cheesecake! The fluffy kind. This lesson is all about how to make the perfect fluffy Japanese style cheesecake in a step by step demonstration where you’ll end up with your own perfect fluffy cheesecake.

What will we cover?

We will cover all the how-tos for creating the perfect fluffy yumminess in a simple and foolproof recipe using only 5 ingredients. The class will be easy to follow, you can ask questions along the way and we will also talk about the chocolate version of this cake and what are some of the tips and tricks to making a cheese cloud using your own oven.

What will you need?

  • Butter or Margarine in block or spreadable (Room temp)
  • 200g Philadelphia Cream Cheese – Lactose-free version is ok to use also
  • 200 ml of full-fat milk –  Lactose-free version is ok to use also
  • 50g of plain flour
  • 4 eggs – Separated, At least 50g – 60g each (Large or Jumbo)

Kitchen equipment:
Baking paper,  Electric beater (Or LOTS of wrist power!),  2x bowls,  Microwave,  Standard Oven, Oven tray that can hold at least 2 fingers deep of water,  Cake tin – Anything from 7 inches up to 10 inches can be used, also can use oven proof bakeware, it will, however, change the look and shape of your cake.
*Tip: For those of you who like smaller portions, the above quantity is perfect for 2 small 11cm cake tin. These can be purchased at Diaso for $2.80 each and works quite well.
Cooking: Takes a long time! so do NOT expect to have your mouthwatering cheesecake finished by the end of the session!
