For the second day, I have a cheese cake recipe for you. You might be wondering what a cheese cake is doing in frozen treats! But yes, I have this frozen cheese cake with a cake base instead of a biscuit base. When I made a cheese cake with veg gelatin, I had some problems setting it. I think the veg gelatin I use doesn’t work in cheese cakes. I was experimenting with different combinations and this was one such combination. At first it set very nicely, but once out of fridge it kind of collapsed. That is when I got the idea of freezing it. I have read some recipes for frozen cheese cakes, so I tried using that for this recipe. It tasted so much like ice cream and it was so soft, I think it was because of the veg gelatin in it.
As this was done as an experiment, i didn’t take any step wise photos. I didn’t think that it would result in a delicious dish. But I was so happy with the result. Even if you have agar agar powder use it in this recipe. Just freeze it until it sets. You don’t have to freeze it until it is hard. The chillness of the freezer is more than the fridge and it helps in setting this cake. For the base, I used a oil based tutti frutti sponge instead of the usual biscuit base. This sponge doesn’t dry out even in freezer. I soaked the sponge with simple syrup and used a loose bottomed pan to assemble the cake.
