One of the popular root crops in Philippines is Kamote (sweet potato), I love eating it boiled with brown sugar and butter on the sides. It can also be fried or grilled and commonly called as “Kamote cue” sounds like barbecue 🙂 So i thought why not as cheesecake. Here’s my flavour no. 18 Sweet Potato Cheesecake.
Flavour # 18 Sweet Potato Cheesecake
Ingredients:
Crust:
6 pcs crushed graham chocolate crackers
1/4 cup melted butter
Cheesecake filling:
4-5 pieces of soft orange-flesh sweet potato
1 can condensed milk
300 g Philadelphia cream cheese
250 ml thick cream
3 eggs
a pinch of salt
3/4 cup of granulated sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla powder
1 tbsp flour
Topping:
cocoa powder
strawberries
whipping cream
yellow -orange sweet potato
i also did mini version
added a little orange food colour
Pre-heat oven Gas mark # 3
Mix together graham crackers crumbs and butter. Press mixture into 8 inches springform baking pan. set aside
Mash sweet potato with fork and combine condensed milk.Beat cream cheese and sugar together, combine the mixture of sweet potato. add a pinch of salt and flour. Adding one egg at a time. Add vanilla powder and thick cream, until all blended. Pour filling into prepared crust.Bake for 1 hour.
Careful not to open wide the oven door as i did! sudden change of temperature will lead to an open crack. Let the cheesecake cool down inside the oven for an hour. Let it stand for another hour before chilling, preferrably refrigerate for another four hours.

Ladies, this is the cheesecake that I won’t mind doing again, it’s really a sweet treat for everyone!! Everyone who doesn’t mind their weight :-)hahahaha just for an update, I lost 2 kilo since I started the challenge. I guess, even though I love eating cheesecake, I am losing weight because of the stress of excitement how well my baking will turn out.
Trying a new concept in cheesecake baking is a difficult task for me, but I’ll keep on trying anyway 🙂 and so my next adventure is to give it a touch of Filipino taste. I like to do it as easy as possible so, I went to asian supermarket and tried shopping for an instant mix of Bibingka ( a Filipino rice cake).

Ladies, I am practicing my piping skills and i know i need more practice 🙂 i’m getting there!
Cherries are popular toppings for cheesecake, so I thought why not combine it? I use the regular recipe for cheesecake and open a can of cherry filling, strained the syrup and placed the cherries between the cheesecake filling and drop a small ball of syrup around the top, one inch apart then connect it by making a line between with a toothpick.

Am I making sense? 🙂 abs diet books and workout book? hahaha feeling guilty eating cheesecakes every week!
My youngest son came to visit for two days and one night, I made him Japanese cheesecake and an avocado cheesecake. Not to mention two favourite Filipino dishes of his. Imagine having those…happiness overload 🙂 and to top it all, he made a demo on how to make a mini chocolate cupcake! Of course we, were not able to finish all, so , what to do with the left over cheesecake?
Chocolate with avocado cheesecake and cherries
I cut it out to a mini heart cheesecakes…it’s Valentines and this is a labor of love. 🙂 He did the demo, an hour before he leaves to airport. Hmmm so yummy and I am so filled with happiness too! Having him for a couple of days was a lot fun and loving moments.So I named this as ” HEART Cheesecake”.

Well, I wish I can share the french recipe but I don’t know how to translate it in English. What I knew, he used dark chocolate, 10 eggs..yes you read it right 10 eggs!! Flour and sugar.
Sorry ladies, I was just in a mist of mixed emotions seeing him enjoying what he like most in the kitchen.
Avocado combined with condensed milk is a favourite snack of mine. We all know that avocado has a lot of healthy fat which our body needs. It also contains, potassium,Vitamin E,B and folic acid. I thought of combining it with my cheesecake recipe and amazingly it turned out very well.
Flavour No. 8 Avocado Cheesecake
Avocado Cheesecake
I used green food colour to a little mixture of avocado and condensed milk to make some swirl design, but if ever I’ll make this again. I’ll skip the food colour. It looks not very authentic!
Ingredients:
Crust:
12 pieces light digestive cookies
1 tbsp granulated sugar
6 tbsp of melted butter
Cheesecake filling:
600 g of Philadelphia cream cheese
300 g Mascarpone cheese
1 cup granulated sugar
250 ml thick cream
200 g sour cream
4 eggs
pinch of salt
2 tsp vanilla powder
Avocado Filling:
3 pcs Avocado
1 can condensed milk
Green food colour (optional)
Pre heat oven (mark Gas # 3)
Crush the biscuits and combine melted butter and sugar. Press it in the pan.
Meanwhile, peel the avocado, scoop and mash it with fork or in food processor. Combine condensed milk and half of the vanilla powder. Set aside.
Cream both Philadelphia and mascarpone cheese,add sugar, vanilla powder and a pitch of salt. Combine thick cream and sour cream, add to the mixture. add the eggs one at a time. Mix thoroughly.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan with crust, add half of the avocado mixture then the other half with green food colour, Swirl it with wooden toothpick .
I think to mix the avocado and the cheesecake mixture together will make the taste better, However, who doesn’t like avocado and cheese? I love the taste!. It’s so yummy!

A Souffle is a lightly baked cake made with egg yolk and beaten egg white combined with cheesecake. I was searching for my next Flavour and I got curious with the recipe (justonecookbook.com), actually I have tried the recipe with my Apricot Cheesecake but it failed and I ended up covering it with ganache chocolate and wallah! it became Flavour # 5.
To make the story short, I, jamilamimi will try.., and.. try again until I got it right! and yes! I did it!! Thank you nami!
Japanese Cheesecake
So soft , yummy and I was able to transfer it from one plate to another platter without a mess 🙂 I am definitely happy with my baking skills, it’s getting better by time.
Ingredients:
400 g cream cheese
6 tbsp granulated sugar
4 tbsp unsalted butter
6 egg yolk
200 ml heavy whipping cream
2 tsp lemon juice
8 tbsp all-purpose flour
3 tbsp apricot jam and 1 tsp water (for topping)
Meringue
6 egg whites refrigerated
10 tbsp granulated sugar
Please check out Nami at justonecookbook.com for detailed instructions. She made a clear steps by steps with photos. I diligently followed every steps, careful not to miss any as well as not to eat immediately. She recommends to eat it the following day which is alright with me because my youngest son is coming tomorrow for a two days holiday and this is my way of bragging, ” hey chef kevin. i can baked too! hahaha!
Serving suggestion:
top it with cherry and a dust of yellow and orange sugar on the sideglazed it with apricot jam
