Easy Kabocha Squash and Okara Cheesecake
- 100 grams Fresh okara
- 100 grams Kabocha squash
- 50 grams Philadelphia cream cheese
- 1 Egg
- 35 grams Sugar
- 1 tbsp Condensed milk
- 3 to 4 drops Vanilla essence (optional)
- Peel the kabocha squash and soften by boiling or microwaving.
- Put all ingredients into a food processor and blend.
- Or, combine everything into a bowl and mix well.
- You could also mash the kabocha squash and then mix everything with your hands.
- With vegetable oil, thinly grease a microwave-safe dish.
- Put the mixed ingredients into the plate and cover with plastic wrap.
- Microwave for 5 minutes at 500 W. The center might feel slightly soft, but will harden later.
- Remove the wrap and let sit until it's cooled off (when it's just warm to the touch).
- Cover with plastic wrap again, and chill well in the fridge to finish.
- I recommend you slice into small pieces since it tastes so rich.
- You could also heat them in silicone cups (in that case, heat for 3 minutes with a plastic wrap covering).
- Somehow this cake became richer when microwaved and chilled.
- This might be because microwaving makes it thicker and harder compared to baking it in the oven.
- You could also use a soft cheese, like Camembert instead of cream cheese.
