My First Cheese Cake

Simplest ingredients (can be bought almost everywhere):
1) 300gm Cream Cheese
2)3 whole eggs
3)100gm sugar
4)Yogurt (Mango Flavour)
5)3 Table spoon of wheat flour
6) Some biscuit (for the base) (optional)

METHOD

Mixed all the ingredients with a blender or a mixer. Pre-heat oven to 150°C. And simply bake all the mixture for 35minutes. Cover the mixture with an alum foil at the 20th minute to prevent burnt on the surface of the cake. When done, leave cake to cool down a bit and store in the refridgerator for few hours before serving it.
Here it is! Although it may not look classy but it's as delicious!
View from top... noticed a little burnt there...

I make another better one for Christmas. Alleluiah! Merry Christmas!
