STRAWBERRY CHEESE CUPCAKE (NO BAKE) - A VIRTUAL BIRTHDAY TREAT FOR TRINAYA!!!

Hello dear friends, still celebrations are going in my space, here another virtual birthday party to our lil angel Trinaya (Nathiya's Daughter), hope you have seen the last post was also virtual party for Nathiya (my sis)... If you din't see click here... Our lil angel is very special and adorable princess to us... We are celebrating her 3rd birthday... 

She is such a lovable and cute kid, I admired her each and every activities, which is amazing matured, intelligence and caring nature. If you allowed me to talk about her, there is no full stop for the post. 

Actually my craft interest or hobby came by our lil angel only, after her birth I want to present some special and useful things to her, so I learnt crochet work and made baby mitten, bib, socks, towel, hat n all... Am really very happy that I learnt new things coz of her... :)

She likes strawberries and pink color very much, so here I prepared strawberry cheese cake for the first time for my chella... 

I really very enjoyed the making the cheese cake but I tried for the swirl, its disappointed me that its not come out well. But am sure the taste was awesome, I tasted the cheese cake first time and really enjoyed the dessert. Here, I didn't use cream cheese or yogurt, I opted for Indian cottage cheese (Paneer), I scared to try but its not failed me to give a awesome result...
