Cheesecake with roses

We’ve been thinking to try a cheesecake recipe with roses for a long time. And here it is! For the cheesecake lovers we present our version of a rather easy and guaranteed succesful recipe based on the common Bulgarian cream cheese. And we have added our rose jam, of course!

100 gr. softened butter

For the cream

180-200 gr. sugar
4 eggs
pinch of vanilla powder

For the topping
Rosey’s mark rose jam

PREPARATION METHOD:

1. For the base, crumble the biscuits and mix with the softened butter.
2. Put in a round baking dish with removable sides, plane down and press well.
3. Mix the cream cheese with the sugar and the vanilla. Add the eggs and mix well.
4. Pour the homogeneous mixture on top of the biscuits cake base.
5. Bake in oven that you have warmed up in advance to 150 degrees C for 25-30 minutes.
6. After you take the cake out of the oven, you are ready to cover it with the rose jam.
7. Let cool down well and put in the fridge for hour or two.
8. Getting ready to serve. This is also the moment to remove the sides of the baking dish.
9. Decorate the slices of cheesecake with dried rose petals and fresh mint leaves (optional).
