Help - Philadelphia and cheesecake recipe...

[wangle99]

Am going to make www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2869/new-york-cheesecake.jsp this recipe (sorry haven't sussed links yet)

it says 3 x 300g Philadelphia cheese. I can only find 200g packets. Do you think I need in total 900g of cheese or is this a misprint?

I have never made cheesecake before and have no idea of the kind of quantities you might need.

Thanks

Yeah, 900g of cream cheese sounds about right for a reasonable-sized cheesecake.

You can use other brands of cream cheese, you can use mascarpone, too.

Thank you, better go down Tesco and get some more lol. I was going to buy Tesco own brand soft cheese but wasn't sure if it was the same (such a difference in the price!)

Check the fat percentage. If it's the same, or similar (within a few percent), use the own-brand.

oh ok, can I mix the two different brands or is it better not to?

Mix 'em, I've done it. No problem at all.

Don't worry! I wash my hands a lot!

Thank you! Wish I'd bought the cheap one to begin with now - fingers crossed it turns out ok, it better do considering how much its costing to make lol
