Pineapple Coconut Cheesecake
« on: December 07, 2014, 10:25:30 am »
Hi everyone

Today my blog is turning 5! I still can't believe so many years passed already!  :o

As a cheesecake enthusiast I prepared this cheesecake. I adapted a good rated recipe from taste.com.au

I hope you like it..


Ingredients:

Base:
130 g butter, roughly chopped
250 g Digestive biscuits

Cheesecake:
500 g Philadelphia, roughly chopped, at room temperature
150 g caster sugar
3 eggs (60 g each)
125 g coconut milk
1 can crushed pineapple, drained (1 can brut 440g)

Top:
Shredded Coconut


Preparation:

    Place butter in TM Bowl. Melt it for 3 - 4 minutes at 60ºC on Speed 1-2.

    Add biscuits and process 10 seconds on Speed  6-7.

    Grease a 20 cm springform pan. Cover the bottom and the sides with baking paper.

    Press mixture over base and side of the pan. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

    Put cheese and sugar in a clean TM Bowl. Beat firstly for 1 minute on Speed 3-4 and then secondly for 1 minuteon Speed 4-5. Clean the sides of TM Bowl and beat 30 seconds more on Speed 4-5.

    Start Thermomix on Speed 4. Add eggs one at a time throught the hole of TM lid. Beat 35 seconds in total.

    Add cocnut milk and mix for 8 seconds on Speed 3-4.

    Add well-drained pineapple and fold in with spatula. (I had sliced pineapples available. I chopped them into small pieces, and added after well drained)

    Transfer cheesecake mixture into the pan.

    Bake for 50 - 60 minutes until set in preheated oven at 160ºC. (Even if the recipe says "the cheesecake will wobble slightly in the center", when I checked it seemed to me the cake wobbled more than I desired so I let it cook for 75 minutes)

    Cool cheesecake in oven for 3 hours with door ajar.

    Refrigerate it overnight.

    Toast a few spoons of coconut in a large pan on medium-low heat by stirring constantly until golden. Transfer into another plate.

    Top your cheesecake with toasted and non-toasted coconut mixture and serve.


Enjoy...

Congratulations on having your blog for 5 years farfallina. Your cheesecake looks delicious.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I love the way you celebrate your milestones farfallina, congratulations on 5 years of blogging and for being a valuable member of this forum for the past 4.5 years. A recipe from an Australian website was a very good choice, it sounds and looks delicious.
