Recipe Description

To enter our giveaway, all you need to do is serve up your most ‘terer’ Malaysian-themed burnt cheesecake using Anchor Cream Cheese, which is the key ingredient to a yummylicious silky burnt cheesecake. Read our full instructions here to win! This recipe is courtesy of Koh Kar Yi for the “Burnt Cheesecake, Let’s Make It Malaysian-lah!” Contest.

“This cake is inspired by the Malaysian iconic dessert, cendol. It’s an inverted burnt cheesecake concept where the burnt surface is at the bottom layer. This allows us to showcase the overall flavor on the cake as well as the addition of complex texture to it. Just as the cendol dessert where we have so many different layers of ingredients complimenting each other, this concept is also well implemented in this recipe. The base is palm sugar cheese which is meant to be burnt to create its caramelized and slightly bitter flavour. The second one is a cheese batter sweetened entirely condensed milk and is mixed with whole sweet corn kernel. The last but not least is the popular coconut pandan cheese flavour that completes it as a cendol cake. Besides, we also add red beans in between the cheese layers as well as duo coconut crumbs, peanuts etc. on top to create a more complex texture profile. This is to us the perfect translation from a bowl of cendol to a slice of burnt cheesecake.” – Koh Kar Yi
