Celebrating my sweet victory with.........

Oreo lemony cheesecake!Hmm..the crust seems a bit crumble,perhaps it was due to insufficient pressing for the crust,whatever it was,that certainly did not hinder the taste at all.Instead of the original filling which consist of whipped cream,I modified it by using another lemon filling meant for lemon cheesecake,added in more lemon juice and some oreo chocolate cream.Verdict:It was rich,sour and oh,so sinful...This huge piece was wolfed down by my lao gong in less than 10 minutes.He used to be so ignorant about cakes,and his cake knowledge is limited to only butter cake and pandan cake.However,now not only does he loves his cake and for this cheesecake,he has been bugging me to do it since yesterday,see who's the more eager one this time?Haha....
Give it a try,your loved ones will love it too :]
