Salted Caramel Cheesecake

Adik aku,  ayu,  teringin sangat nak makan cheese cake.  Kebetulan now,  dia duduk rumah aku sebab mok is recuperating at my house.  Mok buat cataract surgery 3 weeks ago.  Since rumah dia 2 tingkat,  maka ada possibility yang dia kena berjalan dan turun naik tangga,  so aku cakap kat dia,  duduk je rumah aku.  I am so happy that mok nak duduk sini.  Alhamdulillah, I am given the opportunity untuk jaga mok.  Maka,  aku pun terpaksa la jugak rajinkan diri melayan adik aku tu.

Setelah puas menggoogle recipe,  aku terjumpa recipe by my baking addiction.  Recipe makcik tu memang best.  Aku dah penah buat few of her recipes.  Cuma,  masa buat this salted caramel cheese cake,  aku terpaksa bakar cheese cake tu lama sikit,  almost 2 hours.  Alhamdulillah cake tak hangit.  After almost 2 hours,  baru la tengah dia set.  Walaupun a little bit jiggly,  but its ok sebab kan kena chill dlm peti for 1 night.

Haaa...  ni recipe salted caramel cheese cake yg awesome tu.
