EVERY RECIPE DESERVES

A Little Love Letter

If cookies had a main character moment, this would be it. Buttery soft with just the right chew, these beauties have swirls of tart raspberry and are topped with the dreamiest white chocolate passionfruit ganache. They’re bright, fruity, and just a little fancy, but still easy enough to whip up on a random Tuesday. If you love that perfect balance between rich, creamy, and slightly tangy, these cookies are about to become your new obsession.

These cookies shine on their own but pairing them with a cozy drink takes them to another level. A cup of earl grey, a matcha latte, or even an iced vanilla coffee would complement the tart-sweet balance perfectly.

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Keep the ganache separately in the fridge and spread it on just before serving.

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • electric mixer
  • mixing bowl
  • medium-sized bowl
  • piping bag
  • mortar & pestle
  • small cookie scoop

Ingredients

Units Scale
COOKIE DOUGH
  • 120 grams butter, soft
  • 100 grams brown sugar
  • 50 grams white sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 220 grams all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 15 grams freeze-dried raspberries
PASSIONFRUIT GANACHE
  • 200 grams white chocolate
  • 100 grams heavy cream
  • 60 grams passionfruit purée

Instructions

  1. Add soft butter, brown sugar, white sugar, and vanilla extract to the mixing bowl of a stand mixer. Beat until light and fluffy.

  2. Mix in the egg just until combined. Then, add flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda, mixing until no streaks of flour remain. Be careful not to overmix.

  3. Divide the dough into two equal portions. Keep one half in the mixer and set the other aside. Grind the freeze-dried raspberries into a fine powder, then mix them into the dough in the mixer. You should now have one pink and one yellow dough.

  4. Scoop equal portions of both doughs using a small cookie scoop. Press the two differently colored balls together, tear them apart in the middle, and press them back together for a marbled look. Shape into round balls, place them on a parchment-lined tray, and refrigerate.

  5. Heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan until it starts forming small bubbles around the edges. Meanwhile, finely chop or grate the white chocolate and place it in a bowl. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit for 3-4 minutes before stirring until smooth. Mix in the passionfruit purée until fully combined. Cover the ganache with plastic wrap directly on the surface to prevent skin from forming and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight until set.

  6. Once the ganache is set, preheat the oven to 175°C / 350°F. Place the chilled cookie dough balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet, leaving enough space between them. Bake for 13 minutes, then let them cool on a wire rack.

  7. Once firm, transfer the ganache to a mixing bowl and whip until it reaches a buttercream-like consistency. Fill a piping bag fitted with a nozzle and pipe a swirl of ganache onto the center of each cooled cookie. Sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried raspberries for decoration.

EVERY RECIPE DESERVES

A Little Love Letter

This cheesecake is for those who love their desserts creamy, tangy, and just a little extra. A smooth, rich filling sits on a buttery vanilla cookie crust, finished with a silky passionfruit curd that’s sweet, tart, and totally addictive. It’s got just the right balance: light yet indulgent, classic yet tropical. Whether you’re making this for a special occasion or just because you need something incredible in your fridge, this is the kind of dessert that makes people stop mid-bite.

Serve this best chilled, straight from the fridge. It’s perfect on its own but also pairs well with a strong espresso, a glass of dessert wine, or, let’s be real, just a fork and five minutes of alone time.

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. The texture stays beautifully creamy, and the curd keeps its glossy finish.

Creamy Passionfruit Curd Cheesecake


  • Author: Kimberly
  • Total Time: 60 min + overnight
  • Yield: 8-16 slices 1x

Description

RECOMMENDED EQUIPMENT

  • oven
  • 28 cm / 11” cake pan
  • deep baking tray or dish larger than the cake pan
  • food processor
  • large mixing bowl
  • whisk
  • aluminum foil
  • small pot

Ingredients

Units Scale
CRUST
  • 200 grams golden Oreo cookies (without cream filling)
  • 100 grams butter
FILLING
  • 600 grams cream cheese
  • 130 grams white sugar
  • 160 grams creme fraiche
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
PASSIONFRUIT CURD
  • 2 passionfruits
  • 85 grams white sugar
  • 40 grams butter
  • 50 grams heavy cream
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • cold water

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C / 347°F (convection). Fill a deep baking tray or a dish large enough to fit the cake pan with water. The water should reach about halfway up the sides of the cake pan. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the crust. Carefully twist apart the Oreo cookies and scrape off the cream filling. Add the cookies to a food processor and pulse briefly. Add the softened butter and mix for about 20 seconds until the mixture becomes crumbly and holds together. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a cake pan. Set aside.
  3. Make the filling. In a large mixing bowl, whisk the cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the sugar and whisk again until fully combined. Stir in the crème fraîche and vanilla extract. Add one egg and mix until just combined, then add the second egg, mixing only until incorporated. Be careful not to overmix to avoid incorporating too much air.
  4. Assemble the cheesecake. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and spread evenly. Lay two sheets of aluminum foil flat and place the cake pan in the center. Fold the foil up around the pan to prevent water from seeping in. Place the cake pan in the prepared water bath and transfer to the middle rack of the oven. Bake for about 40 minutes until the top is completely pale, the edges are set, and the center still jiggles slightly.
  5. Make the passionfruit curd. While the cheesecake bakes, scoop the passionfruit pulp into a small pot, add the sugar, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Add the butter and let it melt. Finally, stir in the heavy cream and bring to a brief boil before removing from the heat. In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water until smooth, then pour it into the passionfruit mixture. Stir and bring to a boil once more. Let cool for about 30 minutes.
  6. Cool the cheesecake gradually. After 40 minutes, turn off the oven and open the door completely. Let the cheesecake sit inside for 20 minutes to prevent sudden temperature changes, which could cause cracks.
  7. Check the curd consistency. It should be creamy and spreadable, but not runny. If it’s too thick, mix in a small amount of water. Set aside and let it cool completely.
  8. Remove the cheesecake from the water bath. Take off the aluminum foil and run a sharp knife around the edges to loosen it, but leave the cake ring on. Let the cheesecake cool at room temperature.
  9. Finish and chill. Once the cheesecake has cooled to room temperature, carefully spread the passionfruit curd over the top. Transfer to the fridge and let set for at least 6 hours or overnight before serving.

INTRODUCTION

ABOUT THE RECIPE

Creamy, slow-cooked oats, sweet, jammy pears, a crispy pecan-date crunch, and a final hit of passionfruit to keep things interesting. It’s rich but not heavy, naturally sweet but not cloying, and the kind of thing that makes you feel like you’re staying at a really nice boutique hotel (even if you’re still in pajamas). Plus, it’s easy to make ahead, which is always a win.

How to serve
Serve this in your favorite bowl, drizzle with a little extra syrup if you’re feeling fancy, and don’t skimp on the crunch, it’s the best part. The passionfruit should be the last thing you add to keep that fresh, tart contrast. If you want to take it up a notch, add a dollop of yogurt or a splash of coconut milk. And if you’re a texture person, toasted coconut or cacao nibs would be a solid move.

How to store
Leftover oats keep in the fridge for up to 3 days, just reheat with a splash of milk or water to bring them back to life. The pear compote and crunch store separately in airtight containers (compote in the fridge, crunch at room temp) for easy layering all week.
