Blueberry Cheesecake

Mar 122013

It’s my boy’s birthday today and yet, we’re not around to celebrate it with him due to some undesirable last minute changes made to the trip. Poor him! :(

Nevertheless..

Happy 11th Birthday, darlinggggg… *hugs & kisses*

Boy1 is sensitive and sweet, too sweet sometimes. Grin. I remember when i was feeling down a couple of weeks ago.. he said, “I rather you’re angry with me than being sad like this. At least, when you’re angry, you’re not so sad. You’re just angry. Seeing how sad you are now made me sad too, mom”. Then, he continued, “Why not i make you angry now? That way, you won’t be sad anymore?”. LOL!

When he got to know that we will not be around during his birthday, he was a little upset. Still, he quietly told me that his ultimate birthday wish is for the husband and i to have a fantastic time in Japan, Like a Honeymoon, he said. He requested, Mom.. do check out the hot spring for me please and my eyes twinkled a little. Little did he know that we will indeed be at the onsen on his birthday! I’m so gonna surprise him with short videos which i will send over on today. :)

So yeah, this Blueberry Cheesecake post is specially dedicated to my firstborn, who loves me so much so that it pains me when i fail to reciprocate (physically) sometimes. Bad mom, i am. I am.

Why blueberry cheesecake?

Because my mom loves cheesecake.

She was staying at my place for about a week when i decided i wanted to bake her something she loves. Usually, the only bakes that i can tabao back to her is butter cakes, which can withstand rough journey. She ever requested for cheesecake but i told her that it wasn’t possible. When she got to know that i was gonna bake her a blueberry cheesecake, she was as pleased as punch. :)))))

Blueberry Cheesecake

for 8″ cake

Crust

Digestive biscuits 140g
Butter, melted 70g

Finely ground the biscuit. Pour warm butter over biscuit. Toss well to coat mixture with butter. Press firmly into an even layer on the bottom of pan. Refrigerate for an hour.

Filling

500g cream cheese
110g castor sugar
2 tbsp plain flour
1 tsp vanilla essence
2 tsp lemon zest
3 large eggs
30g homemade yogurt/ whipping cream

Topping

500g blueberries
150-200g sugar
zest and juice of 1 lemon
2 tsp cornstarch

Method

1. Beat cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Beat in flour until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing until just incorporated. Gradually add yogurt or whipping cream and lastly, add all other ingredients until well mixed.

2. Bake at 150 (depending on your oven) in water bath for 1 hour 30 minutes or till the edge of filling is set and centre is slightly wobbly. Cool on rack for 5 minutes.

3. In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice and cornstarch and set aside. In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and stir in lemon juice and cornstarch mixture. Stir until the sauce thickens slightly.  Cover to keep warm and set aside.

Note :

Please, please let your blueberry sauce to sit around, cooled and thickened before pouring it over. I didn’t have the luxury to wait at that time i shot these photos as we were rushing out so, i didn’t wait and poured it straight. Result? Watery sauce which isn’t so pleasant to the eyes. :(

———————————

The blueberry sauce is more than enough to cover the whole cake.

So, what do you do with leftover?

Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce of course!!! *wink*

You know i love cheesecakes. Of course i’ll say, SO GOOD!!!! Hahaa!

Mummy loved it so much that she had 3 slices on that very day, followed by 1 more slice the next day. Dang, it’s truly a joy to bake for good people who enjoy your goodies hor? :)

Hopefully boy1 is having a great time with his grandparents and aunt… & brothers… Gawwdd, i feel so awful as i draft this pre-Japan. SO AWFUL!!!! :`(

Lunar New Year in Singapore 2013

boys & funday, family No Responses »

Every year without fail, the boys and i will take a photo together before making our ways to countless visiting planned for the day. This year we didn’t manage to because beep was crying over his twisted/dropped-out teeth from his earlier playful brawl with his eldest brother. :(

Thankfully all was well an hour after… that was after the twisted tooth being knocked out by the second brother during another playful brawl — grrr (!) and phew (!) at the same time. The loose twisted tooth, i’ve been meaning to extract it myself but beep didn’t let me. Heh!

This New Year was quite a pleasant one. Fabulous weather, plenty of couple time with Darcy, family bonding and spending the entire Nian Chu 3 with bestie and family… what is there not to love? :)

First photo :

Instead of buying ready-to-hang-decos for the plants, the boys and i spent an afternoon together with my sewing kit prepping the red packets. Complains? (too difficult, ma.. i can’t do it, ma… my fingers are too fat, cannot tie la, ma… non stop for sure but i ignored them all! Haha!)

Second photo :

. Truth be told, i didn’t do any clothes shopping for this LNY except for some lingerie. These dresses are new but they have been in the wardrobe for months and years.

. Coffee break in between the visiting, that was after the husband and i had our 30 min naps in the car, parked in Changi Airport’s carpark. Unbelievable! Haha! But we were too pooped!

. The gf requested for my #ootd so when i was about to click, the hands, the monkey face all made their special guest appearances, not once but thrice! This is what happens when there are 4 boys (big & small) in the car with just one me, the only female.

. Finally, a photo with bestie’s baby girl… She’s totally adorable! And she loves me. :)

Children these days, LNY means 2 things.

1. Ang Pow.
2. Games, play, games, play.

Handphones, PSPs, DS, PS, XBox, tablets..

When they are not exercising their fingers, it’s Oppa Gangnam Style battle — which i must admit, rather fun! :P

More visiting this weekend! YAY!

*unedited

BBQ, my way ;)

What!? No proper “Happy New Year” and all? How rude of me! :P

Hope everyone is having a great start this year. I know i am.. Got a feeling this year will be better than last! *wink*

So, barbeque.

I’ve been to countless of them to be honest but to organize one? This gotta be my first. Kinda intimidating even though it was just for the family. Psssttt : i’ve got fussy father who loves nothing but steamed fish and stir fry vegetables! Thankfully, he also has a soft spot for beef, when it’s executed perfectly. I started marinating the beef the night before. I didn’t exactly refer to any recipes, everything was done based on agaration. Aiyo, I’m such a risk taker hor!

What went into beef : salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika and a teeny weeny bit of cumin. It was GOOD!

I always thought starting a fire was easy peasy. BOY, was i wrong or was i wrong!

It took the men a hellavu effort to start the fire. We were lucky because the father was there to help out otherwise we might just end up chewing on the RAW steaks. HAHA!

What’s on the plate :

Grilled steaks, apple and walnut salad, chips, sausages, grilled shrooms..

And then, we also have clams in white wine, grilled prawns and squid, marinated with just salt and pepper.

The men needed some carbohydrate in their meal so, a few servings of sweet potato is a must. Not too shabby for a first time organizer eh? ;)

So.

How did my steaks fare?

LOOK!

Medium rare.

Perfecto!!

Of course, for the kiddos.. BBQ equates to marshmallowwwwwwwwww! They didn’t know that of course but as their wonderful mommy *coughs*, i just wanted to indulge them a little. They were so excited and happy!

It was a fun night alright. :)
