Strawberry Cheesecake


Iam so fed up saying "this is one of my favorite desserts"...for every dessert I post....So lets get one thing  straight....I am absolutely crazzy and in love with DESSERTS......so from now, I am not going to use the sentence "this is one of my favorite desserts".....coz now you know....and I cannot help it.....its in the genes....the whole family loves desserts...I am not sure how our 'Dessert loving gene' has passed on to our maid Kamala.....coz she loves desserts too....and actually ate a big chunk of this cheesecake.....we all kept wondering where the last piece  disappeared .
