Well it has been a bit quite around here over the last few weeks as I have been working hard on the latest issue of The 4 Blades Magazine – The Desserts Issue. We worked so hard on creating a really thorough issue to cater to all dietary requirements. Some recipes were made several times to perfect, some were scraped from the mag and new ones added in last minute because they were just to good to leave out. This Sticky Date Cheesecake with Butterscotch Sauce is one of the recipes that was made several times over the last few months; not because it wasn’t perfect. Because it was soooo good I had to keep making it for people who kept requesting it again and again! This cheesecake was a massive hit at my boy’s school when I recently took one in for their morning tea recently. I am sure it will impress your guests just as much.

I LOVE cheesecake and I love any opportunity there is to create new versions. Those that know me know I don’t tend to cook a lot of baked cheesecakes. I am not sure why especially given how easy they are to make – just like this one! It is full of flavour and has a delicious butterscotch sauce to accompany it. Trust me when I say a little goes a long way!
