As South Africans, we all know and love koeksistsers. For those who don’t, koeksisters are sweet, sticky plaited pastry soaked in a sweet sticky syrup. To celebrate our heritage, we did a mash-up of two of our favourite desserts. Koeksisters are chopped up and added to an easy creamy cheesecake, made with the classic beloved tennis biscuit base. This cheesecake recipe is a fridge cheesecake, and the addition of koeksisters makes it like a salted caramel-flavoured cheesecake.
