Cheesecakes make for a fantastic dessert or as an alternative to birthday cake because they are easy to make but deliver lots of flavour.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course, this recipe from Mary Berry is no exception and the baking legend says it’s one of the \u201csimplest desserts\u201d to make from her book Cook Up a Feast.<\/p>\n
It takes five minutes to prepare and only 10 minutes to make the cheesecake.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mary claimed that this \u201cheavenly\u201d cheesecake is a \u201cfavourite pudding\u201d of hers she made and that it goes down \u201clike lightning\u201d with guests.<\/p>\n
