One thought on “Strawberry cheesecake”
I adore this cheesecake and my Muslim friends love it too but we’re all confused re icing sugar? Does the 125g go in the cheesecake … or does it get blended with the strawberries? Recipe says 125g icing sugar but doesn’t say how much to mix into the main cheesecake mixture and how much to add into the purée? It’s very confusing .. so we’ve put 125g into each (the purée AND the main cheesecake mixture)
