White Chocolate Cheesecake

I baked this somewhere in November. Hehe ya I know! I have so many recipes to post yet no time at all to spare for blogging.

I am back from the holiday. The whole family had so much fun, but only if my brother and his wife were there too.

So anyway, back to this cake. One of my friend was a big fan of my cakes. She came to my open house during Raya and completely blew of after tasting my cheese cake and straight away begging me to bake for one of her friend's birthday. And so, the business began.

I baked this during Raya. And she asked for the exact recipe. But I know I had to try some other recipe that yield almost the same cheesecake but even better when you tasted it. I googled and found one.

The original recipe uses 3 boxes of cream cheese. I should use just two because of the price of the cake that I sold (you really need to be good in adjusting the ingredients with the price) so I altered some of the amounts and ingredients.

And sorry. I totally forgot where did I get it. From Allrecipe.com I guees?
