Cheesecake

Cheesecake is a sweet dessert 😚 consisting of the main, and thickest layer, which is a mixture of soft, fresh cheese, eggs, and sugar and the bottom layer, consists of a crust or base made from crushed cookies (or digestive biscuits) or graham crackers. It may be baked or unbaked - usually refrigerated.

Cheesecake was created in New York in the early 1800’s but was originally created in Greek Island of Samos ,dated back to 2000 B.C . Additional toppings such as fruits, chocolate syrup, nuts, whipped cream or any other toppings are done for flavor and visual appeal.
