TWD - Marbled Cheesecake


 This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Marbled Cheesecake. The cheesecake is a combination of vanilla and chocolate, with a biscuit base.


The cheesecake is a traditional baked cheesecake, baked in a waterbath in the oven.


The recipe made a massive cheesecake, with nearly a kilo of cream cheese in the filling. I halved the filling, which made a more manageable and economical cheesecake.


The chocolate cheesecake batter is made by combining a chocolate and coffee syrup mixture with a third of the vanilla batter.

I used Malt O Milk biscuits for my cheesecake’s biscuit base.

As a cheesecake lover, I enjoyed this tasty dessert.

TWD - Brown Sugar Oat Squares


 Today’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Brown Sugar Oat Squares.

Not dissimilar to Scottish flapjacks, these tasty albeit plain squares get their flavour from oats and brown sugar. By baking for a slightly shorter time, you get a soft, caramel like centre in the squares.

Here’s a peek at the crumb:


The buns have nice browned crusty tops, the way I like my bread rolls.

I made one of my buns into a chicken and salad sandwich:

TWD - Tender Biscuits


This week’s Tuesday with Dorie recipe is Tender Biscuits.

In Australia, we’d call these scones - and they are seriously good ones. I had mine with apricot jam and cheese.


The secret to these biscuits is that they contain yoghurt, which makes them tangy and light.
