Mummy’s Fast & Easy


Happy Friday!
Recipe of the day is this amazing cappuccino cheesecake!
It seems I’ve been making lots of cheesecakes recently!:)
But these are so easy to make so I like trying different toppings/flavors.
I use the same basic ingredients, just different fruit/chocolate or add more/less sugar, as in this particular recipe.
Again, the basic ingredients are mascarpone, sour cream, digestive biscuits and butter.
These ingredients work so well together, don’t they!

Here’s what you need.
