Cheesecake

I already had a recipe for cheesecake, but last week I tried a different recipe (for Kind2's birthday, who is a passionate cheesecake fan).

I baked the cake late in the evening, so there aren't that many pictures because of the late hour and the poor light - and I also limited the picture of the ingredients to the essentials: oatmeal cookies, cream cheese, Greek yogurt and butter.

But it was delicious despite the late baking hour!

Ingredients

200 g oatmeal cookies
80 g melted butter
2 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon

5 eggs

150 g brown sugar

1 tsp vanilla sugar

400 g cream cheese

200 g Greek yogurt

Preparation

Crush the cookies thoroughly...

...and then mix with the melted butter, sugar and cinnamon until the mixture is as uniform as possible.

Then pour the mixture into a springform pan lined with baking paper and carefully press it into the pan.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until fluffy.

Then stir in the cream cheese and vanilla sugar and then the Greek yogurt.

Pour the cheese mixture into the mold and bake at 350 °F (180 °C) upper and lower heat for about 45 minutes.

Then let the cake cool down thoroughly, put it in the fridge and then serve well chilled.

For my birthday we had cheesecake and cinnamon rolls and both were really well received - this was the only piece left over from the coffee hour. And by the time it was time to wash up, the last cinnamon rolls had been eaten...
