  • About

Israeli cheesecake is totally different from American cheesecake. It is creamy and cool and sandwiched between a biscuit-like, buttery, flaky crust and crumbs. It’s quite simple to prepare and requires minimal baking (just the crust and crumbs are baked), unlike many cheesecakes that require complex baking techniques. Believe me, you want to make this cake and you’ll be glad that you did.
