Happy Teacher's Day!!

"Happy Teacher's Day" to all teachers out there and "Happy Teaching"...;)

My girl has been asking me to bake a cake for her teachers to celebrate Teacher's Day today at her school. Well, its a last minute notice actually, so I searched through my house, all I can bake is a cheese cake I told her. She said ok, and she start looking for the decos for me..haha! At the end we did went out to get some fresh blueberries and mint leaves.;p



Just something simple here coz I don't have enough time to whip some cream to it. Well, guess cheese cakes doesn't need any cream though. A similar recipe from the Chocolate Marble Cheese i did previously. Only spoons some blueberry fillings in the center of the cheese batter before cover it with the remaining cheese. Then bake, cool, glaze and deco..:)



Packed and sent to school this morning and asked teacher to reserve a piece for me to take a picture inside..hee hee..;p


Here is it...a look at the yummy cake! Hope the teachers enjoy the cake and once again I'll like to wish all Teachers...."HAPPY TEACHER'S DAY"!!
