How to Make Japanese Cotton Cheesecake


Hey guys, Check this out! my favorite cake of all-time. This is probably the only cake that I could eat in one sitting. However, I can't prove how great this tastes like personally. Hence, I am sharing how my friend, Clarisse and I, well mainly just her, made this cake! 

 

Ingredients:

238g Cream Cheese
3/4 cup of Milk
4 tbsp Butter
1/2 cup + 1 tbsp Cake Flour
2 tbsp Cornstarch (sifted)
6 eggs (separated)
1/4 tsp Cream of Tartar
3/4 cup sugar
1 tsp Vanilla

(optional)
Confectioners' sugar
Fresh Berries (kiwi, raspberry, blackberries, strawberries, peach)

Procedure:

  1. Melt cream cheese and milk in a double boiler. This would be your Bowl A.
  2. In a separate bowl (Bowl B), beat the egg yolks + 1/2 of the sugar + vanilla.
  3. Add egg mixture to the cream cheese mixture. Bowl A + Bowl B. Add the cake flour and cornstarch and blend until smooth. Set aside
  4. Then, beat the egg whites. When it turns frothy, add cream of tartar while continuously beating the egg whites. Add the remainder of the sugar gradually.
  5. Introduce the beaten egg whites into the batter. Then, transfer the batter into the beaten egg whites. Carefully cut & fold. Be careful not to deflate the egg whites. (This procedure is very important).
  6. Prepare your spring form cake pan. Pour the batter, make sure to release air bubbles by tapping the pan.
  7. Bake at 350 F for 1hr with a hot water bath. When baked, let the oven door ajar for 10 min. and cool in a cooling rack for 30 min.
  8. Boil a 1:2 mixture of sugar and water.
  9. Decorate your cake with your fresh fruits and coat with sugar water. You may also sprinkle some confectioner sugar.
