Cherry Cheesecake

Ingredients:

1-2 cups of tea biscuits and oat biscuits crumbs
1/2 cup butter
840g cream cheese (preferrably Philadelphia brand)
1 cup sugar
1 cup plain yogurt
4 medium size eggs
2 teaspoon vanilla essence


Methods:

Preheat oven to 175 C. Prepare the crust by mixing the biscuits crumbs with butter. Press firmly onto bottom and 2-1/2 inches up side of pan. Heat the crust for about 10 minutes. Set aside.

Beat cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Add yogurt and vanilla essence. Mix well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on low speed after each addition just until blended. Pour into crust.

Bake 1 hour to 1 hour 10 min or until center is almost set. Turn oven off. Open oven door slightly. Let cheesecake set in oven for 1 hour. Remove cheesecake from oven; cool completely. Refrigerate at least for at least 4 hours. To have the best texture of the cake, refrigerate it for 24 hours. Loosen cheesecake from rim of pan; remove rim. If you're using a glass bowl, you may not loosen the cake. Top cheesecake with Cherry pie filling just before serving. Store leftover cheesecake in refrigerator.

This recipe would serve 10 - 12 persons depending on how much they eat :). Happy trying!
