About the Baked Cheesecake :

Baked cheesecake is a dessert made in ancient Greece, which has two layers, one layer is made of biscuits or cookies and the second which is the main layer is made of cheese, fresh cream and eggs, sometimes sponge is also used in place of cake base, there are two types of cheesecake, one baked and the other unbaked. Cheesecake is a sweet dessert, yet sugar is used in making it, but sometimes even after adding sugar the cake tastes sour, people of Greece used to eat cheesecake during celebrations.

The first description of a cheesecake recipe was written about in the 5th century by a Greek philosopher, Cato the Elder of the Agri, who also mentions cheesecake in his treatise. Today’s cheesecakes have a crust that is either baked or frozen separately. It is believed that in ancient times yeast was used to make cheesecakes rise, but nowadays eggs are used, which sometimes tastes good.

Baked Cheesecake with Eggs: I always like egg based recipes and it is also easier to make than the eggless ones. Baked Cheesecake with Eggs is very tasty to eat and is very easy to make.

Eggless Baked Cheesecake: Eggless cake is mostly liked by vegetarians. Most of the people in India are vegetarians who do not eat non-veg. So, eggless cheesecake is made for them which is a bit difficult. To make eggless baked cheesecake, cream cheese, fresh cream, caster sugar, salt, condensed milk, vanilla essence, refined flour etc. are used.
