Thanks for your sweet words buddy!<BR/><BR/>Asha, as long as yours is fresh type, do try it, but it is a sweet cake.<BR/><BR/>Tanna, nooooo, don't go away... not until you tell me more about your gorgeous cheese cake! When? when? :D :D<BR/><BR/>ninine, thanks for your compliment.<BR/><BR/>Shn, isn't it make much sense, love it!<BR/><BR/>Jeoy, oh thanks! I really didn't do much on dressing the cake up, you know, just keep sprinkling :D<BR/><BR/>Windwhisperer, I am afraid I have no idea as I haven't used other type of oven except my gas oven.<BR/>Besides, I haven't made many cheesecakes, only about a dozen in total.<BR/>I have baked a type of cheesecake which is always sink (or I call it 'collapsed') which requires seperating egg whites from the yolk. So next whip the whites to stiff-peak stage. This type of cheese then is always sink after baked, but it is what the cake supposes to be. <BR/><BR/>Ivonne darling, I will disappoint you as it's still a sweet cake, keekeeeh.<BR/><BR/>Lis, I can't see how we go wrong with 'fresh' ricotta, even having it plain with sugar is already super!! Hope you guys will love it!<BR/><BR/>Linda, oh I am flattered, but it's a breeze to make :D<BR/><BR/>Calli, thanks buddy! I'd say the move is bold, but the rest is still very ... predictable, but in a good way :D<BR/><BR/>Rose, thanks for your sweet words! Maybe the colors help. The only work (I consider as 'work') is only that hand-pulled dough, but you can avoid it by using store-bought puff pastry.<BR/><BR/>Dilip, really thanks for the compliment! And lovely to have your visit!<BR/><BR/>Ari, I know what you mean... but after I tasted it I'm not surprised, it's just too familiar!<BR/><BR/>Brilynn, thanks sweetie, but me neither :D<BR/><BR/>kajal, really thanks for your kind words. Actually I don't make cake often, the task is too time-intensive.<BR/><BR/>Chris...*lol* enjoy darling!<BR/><BR/>maneka, you are right! add a bit new here or there, life gets excited again!<BR/><BR/>kirsten, hope you would love it!
