I was looking for an easy way to make a cheesecake and found this no-bake recipe from Titli Nihaan. It’s really easy to follow. It’s also delicious but I think I should’ve added 2 or 3 more tablespoons of sugar. I don’t like it too sweet but it’s a little bland for me. I failed to taste it while making it. Also, I should’ve greased the pan with more butter because the base stuck to it. Oh well. There’s always the first time.

Forgive my messy cake. I refused my brother’s offer to help and felt like a pro (which I’m obviously not). Hehe! But we finished the whole cake so it’s not that bad after all. 😉
