OH no!*sigh* This will be one of those blog entries where everyone gets to witness my baking + kitchen disasters first hand. *sob* there's even a short video clip of my very disappointing baking session for sadistic readers! LOLThose who have been with me through my cooking adventures for quite some time now; will probably remember a TOga Party we had at our place about a month ago. There were a couple of white Russians at the party; but the best "white Russian" of the night was a DELIcious cocktail our friend shaun stirred up for us! It was a mixture of kahlua, milk and vodka. YUM!
I've been preparing food for our party tonight and I decided to make mini 'white-Russian' cheesecakes! I sneaked in bite from a crumbled cupcake and was amazed at how great it tasted!! If you don't mind crack-ing cupcakes, you're welcomed to try my recipe :).The recipe was my basic cheesecake recipe and;
Add:
1/2 cup of kahlua
1 1/2 tbsps Absolut Vanilia
50 gms melted white chocolate
2 tsp sifted cocoa powder
Divide the batter into 3 different bowls and add kahlua to one, white chocolate and vodka to the second and cocoa powder in the third. Layer the different flavours as you desire, I guess a marbled effect will work as well....1 1/2 tbsps Absolut Vanilia
50 gms melted white chocolate
2 tsp sifted cocoa powder
The taste and texture of these little gems were well worth the cracking!! It's probably one of the best cheesecake flavour combinations I've ever had .

Cute video, Suyin. Of course, I'm biased in favour of anything that has music from Grease! I think that the cakes still look fantastic.

Thanks alot.....
ellena: use the same cupcake recipe from here... http://cookingismypassion.blogspot.com/2006/06/bulls-eye-cupcakes.html
Divide the batter into 3 separate bowls; and add the ingredients as listed.
first bowl: Kahlua
Second bowl: white chocoalte + vodka
thrid: cocoa powder
Bake and layer as usual. There are hint on how I did it in the video :)
hope this helps
I've used your bullseye cheesecake recipe as a base twice thus far and they've been delicious both times!
I always use cupcake liners, however. Do you grease the pans to prevent the cakes from sticking without liners? If so, what do you use?
Thanks a bunch for all your amazing recipes and photos :)
thats great kristy! ...I actually have never greased my pans for cheesecakes... I have non stick muffin tins and I wiggle them out off the sides a little before popping them off. it usually works well for me that way.
