Oreo Cheesecake

Oooo lala... did you see the blue moon shining high in the sky last night? Someone was working in the kitchen with me to make this cheesecake. It was a really impromto thing cos my honored guest cook had leave the next day and was in the mood for some baking. We went to NTUC at 9 plus to get the stuff WITHOUT the actual list of ingredients on hand. Had to go by faith so we bot wat we tot we needed. Thank God it was what we needed. Used Evan's brilliant recipe to make this cheesecake. She used whipping cream but we used thickend cream. Worked out perfect. We had fun in the kitchen too. My very first cheesecake... ooooooooooo






Nice and creamy.. shiok!!
