For our friends in Israel, a fabulous cheese cake using Israeli ingredients!
20 Tea Biscuits, crushed
75 gr melted margarine
500 gr 5% Gvina Levana*
500 gr 9% Gvina Levana
6 eggs
1 package instant vanilla pudding
1 ½ c. sugar
Jar of Dulce de Leche
Preheat oven to 180°C or 350°F. Mix cookie crumb with melted margarine. Press down into 9-inch springform pan. Mix all the other ingredients and pour into pan. Bake 40-50 min. until the center looks solid. Let cake cool to room temperature.
Open a jar of caramel, heat in microwave for 20 seconds. Mix and pour onto cooled cake. Can be decorated with whipped cream.
*You can replace Gvina Levana with standard cream cheese (75 gr = 3/4 cup, 500 gr = 17.5 oz).
please tell me what tea biscuits are in hebrew–there are a lot of choices in the store–like petit beurre and wafer biscuits, etc.
You can’t really go wrong but I use the Osem tea biscuits. If you want to splurge, you can buy American graham crackers as well. Enjoy!
i bought in the end lotus brand biscuits–do you know about them? there are no american graham crackers to be had where we live.
freaking amazing!!!! saving this recipe forever. thank you and chag sameach!
