Mix until fine. Place mixture in a pastry bag and set aside. Melt the butter and grind the tea biscuits finely. Place the ground tea biscuits in a deep bowl and add the butter. Mix well. Take a silicone baking mold. Fill it with cookie dough (14 gr per cheesecake). Press it flat with a glass. This way you prevent the cookie dough from sticking and press everything firmly. Repeat the process. Add the cream cheese and sour cream to a deep bowl. Mix for a minute. Add the white caster sugar, vanilla sugar, salt and cornstarch. Mix together for a minute. Put the mixer away and use a spatula from now on. Loosen the eggs one by one with the spatula (do not use a mixer, as you will beat the batter). Back to the silicone mold. Fill it with a layer of cheesecake batter over the cookie dough (15 grams) and pipe in the center some pecan nut topping (12 grams). Finish it with another layer of cheesecake batter (35 grams). Place the mini cheesecakes in a preheated oven at 115 ℃ for about 22 to 25 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecakes cool down slowly in the oven. PECAN CARAMEL TOPPING Do not chop the pecan nuts (75 gr) too small. Bring the water together with the sugar to a boil over medium heat in a pan for 5 minutes. When the sugar is fully dissolved, increase the heat. Cook for 5 minutes or until the sugar/water mixture turns brown. Turn off the heat. Now, while stirring, add the heavy cream and butter. Mix until well combined. Add the pecan nuts and let it stand until the caramel thickens. Garnish the cheesecakes. #kookmutsjes #cheesecake #baking #dessert #alhamdulillah #foryou #fyp #food #foryoupage - @kookmutsjes
