Condensed Milk Cheese Cake

It has been a while since I last updated the blog, time to start recording down all the recipes that I think is good and worth keeping.

To start with, today I just baked condensed milk cheese cake.

The big boss bought and open up the condensed milk, so got to make something with it before it spoil. And since Philly cheese is on sale, $2 per block from Woolies, hence google turn up with condensed milk cheese cake.

Ingredients:

• 5 yolks
• 1 egg
• 84g cake flour - sieved
• 84g condensed milk
• 200g cream cheese
• 58g canola oil
• Pinch of salt
• 4tsp lemon juice

• 5 egg whites
• 75g castor sugar
• 1tsp lemon juice

Method:
*Note: I had used the 24cm push up round cake pan.. lined inside with paper, bottom and side. Then wrapped the outer bottom with 3 layers of aluminium foil to prevent the water from the water bath from getting in.

1. Melt cream cheese  by double boiling over stove.  Once melted,  whisk lightly to a smooth consistency.  Set aside.
2. Sieved flour, then add in salt, stir well and set. 
3. Mix yolks, 1 egg and condensed milk until well combined and set aside.
4. Heat oil over stove or microwave on high for 10seconds. Once done, drizzle over sieved flour and quickly mix to a smooth paste.  Set aside.
5. Pour the yolk mixture into the cream cheese, mix well. Then add into the flour mixture, mix well. Next add in 4tsp lemon juice, whisk until well combined.  Set aside.
6. Pre-heat the oven at 170c. Prepare the outer tin for the water bath, boil roughly 1.5l water
7. Beat egg whites until foamy, add in 1tsp lemon juice, then add sugar in 3 batches.  Continue beating until attain firm peak.
8. Fold in meringue to the yolk mixture in 3 batches.  Be sure to fold till you don't see any streaks of meringue.
9. Pour in batter to baking tin, tap few times on table top to release air bubbles.
10. Place the baking tin on the outer tin, fill up the outer tin with the boiling water.
11. Send to bake by waterbath method. 170C for 20min, then 160C for another 45min (adjust according to your oven temperature. I had reduce temp to 140c for the last 10mins to avoid the top from over browning.
12. Once done, invert to cool for 5min and remove mould.  Then revert back upright to cool completely.
