Blueberry Cheese Cake

Ini projek lama-lama yang kita terpaksa korek dan punggah sebab merata-rata sangat letak duduknya jadi dah lupa save kat mana..luckily i've found this.
Ini adalah blueberry cheesecake yang saya buat lama dahulu [lihat tarikh pada gambar]
idea nak deko memang tak pernah terlintas langsung. Tiba-tiba bangun pagi tu terus capai whip cream dan putaqqqqq..pastu sessi tenyeh menenyeh ler plakk..maka terhasillah kek yg sebegitu.
Resepi nie saya ambil dari buku Catherine Lau. Ramai bloggers dan forumer pun dah mencubanya. Memang sedap!
