Yam Burnt Basque Cheesecake

 

Been wanting to try this as I saw it somewhere on a video. The yam was more flowy but I cant find where that video recipe was! 


Its ok. Lets try a yam paste bottom then. It should taste well, i supposed. Since its my friend bday too, she loves yam like me, so why not? My virgin attempt at baking it! Keeping finger crossed that she will like it! 


I made a mini ones to taste test. Creamcheese was nicely done, yam paste not overly sweet. Actually I quite like the combi but I think can be a bit sweeter. But my hub who dont like yam, he prefers eating the cheese portion. 😂😂 So now lets wait for the verdict from my fren. Pls count my effort into the cake as well! 🤞🏻
