Japanese Souffle Cheesecake  Super Fluffy & Jiggly

Make this to wow at any celebration. The best ever pillowy soft, light & heavenly cheesecake with chocolate swirl. It's a perfect summer dessert.

Ingredients

(A)
● 180g cream cheese
● 70g whole milk
● 3 small egg yolks
or 3 large egg yolks
● 55g plain flour
● 15g corn flour

(B)
● 4, small egg whites or
 3 large egg whites
● 70g sugar, optional

(C)
● 1 tsp dark cocoa powder
● cake batter, optional

You will need 6-inch oval or round baking pan. Line with the prepared round of parchment paper in the bottom.

Method:
 
1) In a saucepan, heat the cream cheese over low heat, add milk, stir until melted. Turn off the heat, add egg yolks one at a time and sieved flour. whisk the mixture not more than 10 times, because it's very important not to over mix at this point.

2) Whisk egg whites until foamy and add sugar a little bit at a time until stiff peaks, the peak stands straight up when the beaters are lifted from the mixture about 5 minutes.

3) Folding cake batter into a whites and mix until incorporated. Pour the batter into oval cake pan 21.5cm x 10cm, deep 6cm. Use 1 tsp dark cocoa powder, mix with the remaining batter. Place the bag inside a tall cup, spoon your chocolate batter inside the bag, snip off the corner. gently squeeze and use a chopstick or whatever tools can create any pattern you wanted on the top of cakes before you bake it to get a lovely effect.

4) Use a large baking pan for a cold water bath and bake in non-preheated rather than in preheated oven at 150°C for 45 minutes. Sit in the oven for 15 minutes, until it reach room temperature, typically 55°C.

5) Dropping the cake pan from high to prevent the cake to shrink too much during cooling. Make sure cakes are properly cooled before cutting them. Use a sharp and hot knife to cut the cake and present individual plated. Serve immediately or chill in a fridge overnight.

Helpful Tips:

1) Can you freeze the cream cheese? Not recommended. The texture will change considerably. It will be more crumbly and less creamy once thawed. it won't be as creamy as it used to be. When frozen, the cream cheese's liquids and solids will separate and this will alter the texture of the cream cheese. Still, frozen and thawed cream cheese is safe to use in cooking and baking.

2) I recommend one thing, do not pour the yolks mixture into the whipped whites because doing so you compress the albumen and all the work is gone.

3) Use a clean, dry bowl, free of yolk and any other oil or grease while beating egg whites.

4) Beat the egg whites about 3-5 minutes at middle speed, until, firm and nearly stiff peaks. Beating egg whites is a very important process, It will help your cakes rise with perfectly.

5) Do not overbeat the egg whites,  it will cause cake shrinks after baking.

6) Do not over mix the cake batter, must be less than 25 times to prevert cake shrinks excessively around the edges.

7) Be careful not to over fold, because you will inevitably deflate the batter, causing it to not rise properly in the oven. Fold just until combined, then call it quits.


8) Store in covered containers in the fridge and consumed within 2 days.

9) Do not bake the cake quickly at a high temperature and don't remove hot cake out of a baking pan. otherwise the cake could fall apart and crack on top. Baking cake at a lower temperature will help the cake rise much higher and bake more evenly.


10) You can test the cake by poking it with a skewer, if it's cooked the skewer will come out clean. if not pop it back in the oven and bake until it's ready.

11) Cover with foil after a few minutes if the cake of top starts to get brown and continue rising nicely with a golden top.

12) For guaranteed results it's important to follow exactly this recipe and baking at the right temperature also recommended to use an oven thermometer. Please understand that everyone's oven work differently. You should also check the temperature of your oven. if not, your cake won't rise well.

13) Cake sink or collapse after cooling, because you've turned the hot cake in the oven too soon once baked or pans were greased too heavily or placed too close together in the oven or over-baked.

It require a short fermentation time, only a single rising, which means less than an hour it's ready to bake. so unbelievably good, soft and chewy, and easy to make bread in the shorter time. just like the loaves you can get at the local bakery shop. I used bread maker at this time, it helps for kneading and fermentation, it is like a robots could help you save more energy and spend less time, so bread maker really a life saver.

• 40g sugar, optional

• a pinch of sea salt

(B)
• 2 tsp vegetable oil

(C)
• 1/2 egg, whisked
• 1 tbsp milk

If you use 1 egg, whisked + 2 tbsp milk like the video, any leftover egg wash can be store in the upper fridge for 2 days.
