Strawberry Cheese Cake

Cream Cheese is the secret ingredient that can transform a plain dessert into a wonder dessert. This smooth creamy dessert is liked by kids and adults of my family. A fabulous, fruity filling of cream cheese is beautifully complemented by a biscuit base to create this all time favourite. Its amazing that something so teriffic takes so little effort. It's my daughter Shruti's favourite and i love it myself too. This is how i prepare.
