Fig Honey Lemon Cheesecake 无花果蜂蜜柠檬芝士蛋糕

Figs are sweet and rich in taste and they are wonderful source in calcium, iron, magnesium, potassium and full of dietary fiber.  Fresh figs should be consumed within 2-3 days as they will perish easily once ripened. After eating some of the figs, I quickly used the leftovers to bake this beautiful light and zesty cheesecake. This fig cheesecake blended very well with honey and lemon sauce which I drizzled on top. My family and even my friend also gave their thumbs up for this wonderful dessert!
