YOU Magazine Fashion Beauty Celebrity Health Life Relationships Horoscopes Food Interiors Travel Home Food Donna Hay’ s cheat’ s lemon cheesecake slice By You Magazine - October 14, 2018 Making a lemon cheesecake slice has never been simpler, thanks to a couple of handy shortcuts, including a zesty store-bought lemon curd and shortbread base. In this Donna Hay recipe, the traditional cream cheese filling is swirled with white chocolate for a rich, decadent dessert that’ll please the sweetest of teeth. Plus, the yellow vibrant colour means it looks amazing on the plate.
