Lemon and Lime Cheesecake




I have been busy tonight making my popular lemon and lime cheesecake in preparation for tomorrow's Sunday lunch. We have Wendy and Gil, Rita's daughter and son in law coming round for lunch, so its given me the perfect excuse to get creating in the kitchen!
I haven't made this sweet for ages and couldn't put my hand on the recipe as everything is still a bit upside down from when we were decorating the kitchen, so it was a guessing game to some extent!
However with regular tastings of the cheesecake filling I got the tangy lemony,limey topping just perfect.
The cream thickened up lovely when I added the fresh lemon and lime juice and when the condensed milk went in , it tasted beautifully creamy.I baked the biscuit and butter base in the oven to make it extra crispy, a lovely contrast to the creamy soft topping.

diet


How can I stick to a diet when there are such things as real cream coffee cakes!
Me and Bill had an attack of the nibbles today, and I sent him off down to de'greys to get a cream cake each---naughty but nice!
I couldnt belive the size of it when he bought it back--it couldnt be eaten in public !!!
Im afraid it was a fingers in and lick the cream off job first!
I did try really hard but I couldnt finish it-dont know if I will be going to weight watchers on Wednesday--we tryed the sausage and leek hash and also had 2 rare breeds sausage baps today-well you just have to have quality control!! It was all beautiful-but Im afraid the scales will not like it!!
