Lemon Yogurt Cheesecake

Having said in my earlier entry that I needed to finish up all the veges in the fridge, which also included a couple of lemons too. I've used some of them for the Lemon Pound Cake and thought it'll be useful for a Lemon Cheesecake. I spotted a packet of plain yogurt in the fridge and thank gawd that it haven't passed it's expiry date.

Out came all the ingredients mentioned and I'm set for baking. Within 30 minutes, it's in the oven for baking. Now, I'm happy seeing the vege compartment in the fridge almost empty.

I let the cheesecake cool down before serving. Well... all I can say was that it tasted lemony and sourish enough for me. Not as smooth as I wanted coz I couldn't wait for the cream cheese to thaw and I perhaps didn't beat it well enough and the base crumbs were a little too crumbly. Anyhows, it's baked and eaten and setting well in me tums. No further complaints to that.
