A zebra cheesecake sounds delightful! So many people inconvenienced. It’s so wonderfully silky smooth and an absolute dream!
My partner and I attempted the cake last week. It’s beautiful! Liked the site a lot ! Very delicious but we all agreed I should probably cut the butter a bit more to get a frosting that is a little less greasy and will have less of a buttery taste.

Can you clarify how much milk you add for the chocolate batter ? Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat in the eggs, one at a time, beating for 1 minute between each addition. Ha ha ha, I too am a footyphobic, I just don’t get it.

My frosting looks nothing like yours. Thanks for the tips on how to make this very presentable dessert. Add 2 tablespoons of the chocolate batter in the centre of the vanilla batter and let it spread out too.
Have a wonderful weekend ahead.
