Jam Topped Cheesecake.

I'm a fan of the jam.

I love jam on toast.

Jam on croissants.

Jam on crepes and pancakes.

Jam on french bread.

Jam on crackers.

Traffic jam? Not so much.

Ever tried jam on a cheesecake?

And the best thing is that it only has 5 ingredients.

How bout that. 

You'll need a packet of Oreo biscuits. Two packs if you intend of making two. 

Two slabs of Philadelphia cream cheese. 

Your favourite jar of jam. Preferably St. Dalfour. 

Half a can of Mr. Condensed Milk. Or what I used to call "Susu Tok", means Granpa's milk in Malay. 

One lonely egg. 

Crush up the Oreo biscuits and blend them in a blender or food processor. Whichever you have. 

I'm still yet to buy myself a food processor. Anyone?

Blend it until it feels like sand...but tastier.  

Mix in the melted butter and combine. 

Press cookie mixture onto the bottom of an ungreased 8" Springform pan. 

Mix cream cheese, egg and milk in an electric beater and pour unto pan. 

No need for a spatula here. Just give it a little jiggle. and bake. 

Once cooled, bring on the jam. 

You can use Raspberry. Blueberry. Strawberry. Blackberry. Cherry. or Nutella. 

Even Marmalade, if you really must.

But please, not Vegemite. 

Oh God, no.

Spread it generously on top. Yes, I made two.

One for me, one for you.

Every bite melts in your mouth, what's not to like?
