Simplebuds very own Oreo craze cheesecake 'ice cream'

I was super bored on Saturday wkend. It was killing me. I closed my orders on March cos of school and work. But, never did I expect it end so soon, as in the project. IT was a blessing to go up first among the others.
Anyways, apologies to those who I've turned down the orders. But, great news. My schedule (*fingers crossed*) is unoccupied right now except 5-7 Apr due to preparation for my exam.

Back to the story. I was dieing of boredom. Literally, shouting for help. Right after tuition, I went down to do some grocery shopping and I saw Oreos on offer. I love them. So, I thought, why not create my own recipe. I am not a big fan of cheesecake cos I kinda get bored with the taste of too much cheese.

So here's the story how I came up with the Oreo Cheesecake. I wanna make something creamy yet not bored to the taste buds. For sure, not too sweet. I don't wanna get hyperglycemic. And, I want to forego baking for cheesecake cos I am very inspired by Nigella Lawson on how freestyle she could be with her recipes. My mum was like.... How the heck its a cheesecake? Here's how it turns out to be after approx 1/2kg of Oreos, whipped cream, Philadelphia cream cheese and sugar all mixed up and a day's old in the refrigerator.



Haha. I keep asking myself, must it turn out into a conventional cake? It turns out like ice cream! And, with the oreos and cheese blending itself, a superb treat for the afternoon tea time. I practically love the cheesecake. Or shall I say ice cream. This is a perfect recipe for those who are lazy to clean up the oven, but at least got the machine to whip up the cream and cheese. And, here's the side view.





More experiments coming up.

Anyways, a reminder. Orders open for April. So, do email at simplebuds@yahoo.com and I'll get back to you soon.

Toodles!

Get well soon cuppies for bestie

Here's an update after a month long of hectic schedule.

Many asked: "Farz, what's your next project?". I simply replied: "School project!" The stress was piling from every side of my life: work, school, freelancing and... 'hypo-baking'. I finally got a reason to bake. My bestie, Nurul, was sick till she got admitted to the hospital. I was so worried for her and didn't manage to visit her due to work and school. And guess what, she wishes for 'Get Well Soon Cupcakes'. She's simply crazy. So here's the turn out of the cupcakes sent to Nurul via delivery by me.


I did extreme minis and the standard size. The above is just nice for the ones who simply wanna indulge in a proportion in between the minis and standard size. As usual, I made my 'signature' chocolate ganache cake.

Then, I got some leftover cakes. I gave it to one of my colleagues who teach with me at one of the centres (*can't tell where though*). She was head over heels on the cakes and shouted in class when she I hand over the cakes to her. She simply love the ganache. Kinda tickles me when I recall what happened. Haha. The students were shocked by her reaction.




And yes, I do receive emails especially from friends, whether I still take in orders. And here's a shout out: Yes, I still do. So just drop me an email aite at simplebuds@yahoo.com
