Burnt Cheesecake

I learnt how to bake this Burnt Cheesecake a couple of weeks ago and realised I've not documented it my blog. This cake was a craze a while back and I'm glad I finally got to bake it finally.

This is a surprisingly easy cake to make and the ingredients are  rather basic. The recipe I am documenting in this blog is a basic one. You can tweak this basic recipe to have different flavoured burnt cheesecakes (eg. matcha, chocolate, vanilla, etc)

Dalgona Coffee

Dalgona coffee is the craze of late. I am joining in the trend to find out for myself why this drink is so popular. 

Dalgona coffee is basically milk topped with foam made with coffee and sugar. Also known as whipped coffee or beaten coffee, the drink has origins from India, Pskistan and Macau. It gained popularity from a Korean TV show and Tik Tok, and has become a trend since.
