Coffee Cream Cheese Ogura Cake - Bake-Along #46 - Theme : Cotton Soft Cheesecake

This is another lovely light cheesecake infused with coffee flavour with an extremely delicate texture too! Light does not equivalent to low fat! This 7" cake uses 125gm cheese with 6-7 eggs! Luckily most of it is eaten up by my kids hahaha...

This is the 2nd flavour ogura cake I've attempted. After previous trial & errors, I've known how my oven works and this time round the cake turns out beautifully...tall & evenly browned :)

Hii...would like to try yr resipi this cotton cheese cake,but there is no mention of flour used in the listed ingredients? Hw much flour n what flour did u used? Pls adv. Tq

lena said...

that's a good bake..i never thought of ogura cakes for this cottony soft cheesecake..that's a good one and a good inspiration! thank you!

Iris said...

Hi Peng, this cake is quite similar as your Japanese Cottony cheesecake. But in this recipe, u mentioned we have to invert the cake immediately onto wire rack to cool, wouldn't it collapse? and also, once it is baked, do we have to leave it in the oven for a while? Thks.

Peng said...

Iris...do not leave in oven, after baking immediately invert onto wire rack, similar in making chiffon cake. If u get the meringue right the cake will not collapse :)

Hi Peng,

I have been through a lot baking my ogura cakes too. Your cream cheese version of ogura cake looks very cottony soft.

Forget about the fat. Just enjoy the lightness. Yum!

Hi Peng,

Your cake looks so nice and fluffy! I want to try baking this but there's no coffee emulco available here. Can you suggest what is the best substitute for coffee emulco? Can I use coffee powder? If yes, how many grams? Thanks!!!

Peng said...

You can used 2 tsp coffee granules (not instant coffee) dissolve in 1 tsp hot water.
