Lemon Cottony Cheesecake

All these years, I've been spending so much money in this kind of cheesecake at Melaka shopping mall. It costs about RM$11.00 per cake (6" pan size). Melaka State is about 40+km away from my town and I don't go there very often. So, if my kids are requesting for it then they have to wait ! But, not anymore because I'm actually doing it myself at home and we can eat them fresh from the oven. How nice it is? Oh my godness, it is actually so easy to make.

6 egg yolks
50gm butter

Here is my very first homemade cottony cheesecake. My kids and I finished it in just one day. Ha Ha !! I admit we are such a big fan of this cottony cheesecake. I will definitely make another one on next week.
