Soufflé Japanese Zebra Cheesecake 日式舒芙蕾斑马芝士蛋糕
Remember I’d baked a Soufflé Japanese Cheesecake last November? My family loves the the light and soft texture of this cake. This is one of their favourite cakes but the boys are complaining that the cake was too small (a 7 inch cake). They requested for a bigger cake to satisfy their cravings. So this time I doubled the portion and baked a bigger cake. I used half white and milk chocolate to make this zebra cheesecake. The end result is almost the same as the previous cake, light and smooth but the surface is wrinkled up after cooling down. This may due to a longer baking time in the oven. So if you’re going to bake this cheesecake, please follow the temperature and baking time in this recipe but as temperature in each oven varies, please monitor your cake carefully. Anyway, my family is happy this time with a bigger slice of cake and requesting for it again on Chinese New Year’s day gathering.

Author: Ann Low
Ingredients
- 125g Cream cheese, room temperature
- 120g White chocolate (Meiji brand)
- 3 Cold Eggs, 70g each
- ½ tbsp Lemon juice and zest of half lemon
- 125 Cream cheese, room temperature
- 110g Milk chocolate (Meiji brand)
- 3 Cold eggs, 70g
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
Instructions
- Line a 8 inch cake pan at the bottom and grease the sides with butter, set aside. Preheat oven to 170 degrees C.
- Separate the eggs. Place egg whites in the fridge which makes the meringue more stable.
- Break white chocolate into pieces in a large bowl and melt in a double boiler over hot water. Mix chocolate to smooth. Then add cream cheese into it and stir till smooth with a hand whisk.
- Remove the bowl from double boiler. Add egg yolks, mix well followed by lemon juice and zest, mix well again with a hand whisk, set aside.
- Break milk chocolate into pieces in a large bowl and melt in a double boiler over hot water. Mix milk chocolate to smooth. Then add cream cheese into it and stir till smooth with a hand whisk. Remove the bowl from double boiler. Add egg yolks, mix well followed by vanilla extract and mix well again with a hand whisk, set aside.
- Whisk 3 egg whites with an electric mixer until firm peaks form. If it's thick enough, you can turn the bowl upside down without it sliding out.
- Add ⅓ meringue into the plain cream cheese batter and blend well with a rubber spatula. Then add the rest of the meringue and mix well.
- Whisk 3 egg whites and mix to the milk chocolate cream cheese (method same as the white chocolate cheese mixture).
- Spoon 6 heapful tablespoons of the white chocolate cream cheese mixture into the centre of the cake pan. Straight away spoon 6 heapful tablespoons of the chocolate cream cheese mixture on top. Continue doing this until all the mixture has been used.
- Shake the cake pan a little and drop the pan lightly on the counter top to release the air bubbles out of the batter.
- Steam bake the cake for 15 minutes then lower the temperature to 160 degrees C for 15 minutes. Turn off the oven temperature and leave the cake inside the oven for another 15 minutes.
- Leave the cake to cool completely before removing from the cake pan. Chill the cake before consuming （about 2-3 hours)
Notes
you may also whisk the 6 egg whites together to meringue and divide half portion each to the white chocolate cheese mixture and milk chocolate cheese mixture and mix well.

Drooling…. This is so laden with choc goodness!
Hi Ann, what a nice Soufflé Japanese Marble Cheesecake. I made your Soufflé Japanese Cheesecake (your Nov 2013 recipe) last month during christmas time. The 2nd trial was very successful and my colleagues like it very much, they're asking for the recipe so I intro your blog to them.
This cheese cake looks cool! I love that you used Japanese Meiji brand chocolate. Great recipe!
oh yum yum yum.. lately I have been seeing many cheesecake!yours looks perfect Ann, I'd love to have a slice – a big one, or two LOLthks for linking this up to LTU cheese 🙂
Hi, I tried baking this last week. But instead of using white choc, I used the normal milk choc. Just want to check if I done correctly as the taste for mine turned out to be light but moist (kinda of taste like mousse cake than cheese cake). And by the way, where did you brought the Meiji white choc as I can't find it in Phoon Huat, FairPrice, Giant or Cold Storage (not convenient to go Meiji Supermarket at Liang Courts).
Jocelyn
Hi Jocelyn, The cake is light and moist, but mine wasn't as soft as mousse cake. I'm not sure about using other chocolate brand. I think you can read about the content about the milk choc you used.The Meji choc is available at Cold Storage – Great World City and Plaza Singapura that I always frequented. I think Isetan has it too.
Hi Ann, thanks for the quick reply… Guess I just have to check out more Cold Storage outlets in the East to find the Meiji choco as I seldom go downtown. Jocelyn
Hi Ann, Your cake looks lovely! Ive been hunting high and low for meiji choco and in the end only found milk chocolate. Can i still follow your recipe exactly? Thanks for your kind advice.
The texture of this cake is so beautiful!
Hi, I noticed you kept using the word 艺 when it should be 芝. Therefore its 芝士 not 艺士, just thought you might like to know 🙂
Hi Winnie,
Thank you very much for highlighting to me about this 芝 but I can't find this word in 汉语拼音 only 艺(yi). Can you please tell me what is the 汉语拼音 for 芝?
I've also checked on the Chinese food blogger sites, they also used 艺(yi) for cheese. Can it be this 芝 is 繁体字?
Hi Ann
The hanyu pinyin for 芝 is zhi1, which is read like 知. I'm pretty sure its a 简体字 and I believe those chinese food blogger sites are wrong. Its like they always make the mistake and write 戚风 (chiffon) as 威风.
Hi Winnie, Thank you so much for explaining. I'm so lucky to have your guidance 🙂 Just corrected to '芝'. I know 戚风 (qi feng) and 威风 (wei feng) … hahaaaIn future if you found that I made silly mistakes again on the hanyu pinyin please let me know.Regards,Ann
Ann, I love how pretty your marble swirls look. Also, this is super perfect for a cup of hot tea on a hot afternoon. Nice!! I want to try this recipe of yours soon 🙂
Thank you Grace. If you've tried the plain cheesecake, you'll definitely love this version.
Is it possible to omit the white chocolate? I just want the cheesecake with chocolate with still the swirl…
Hi N. Soekhai, If you want to omit the white chocolate, I think you have to use other recipe because there is no sugar used here.
很赞和很完美的蛋糕。我很爱。
I would love to bake this cheesecake, it looks so light and delicious. I baked one a few months ago and unfortunately the surface of the cake cracked. Wonder why. I shall give your recipe a try. Wish me luck!
Hi Veronica,
I think there are two problems that caused your cake cracked. One is the temperature is a little high and two is you have over whisked the egg white.
Wow, your cheesecake looks beautiful! The zebra swirls are perfectly done!
Looks very moist and delicious!
Ann , thank you in advance , I'm gonna drop by later to pick my share lol Your cheesecake looks gorgeous ! Actually , I agree with your boys , 7-inch of cheesecake is not enough 😀 Will try this one sometime !
Hi Anne, The 7-inch of cheesecake is definitely not enough for you too :D.
A masterpiece, Ann.
Wow……great. What a nice cake. I love this. I want this cake in my birthday.

Pretty zebra cheesecake, look smooth & delicious. I have white chocolate at home, look like I'm going to try this soon 🙂
Hi DG, I'd tried this cake with the Meiji chocolate 3 times already. The chocolate is not too sweet. Can try lol!
又美又好吃的芝士蛋糕, 让我猛吞口水了!
Hi Ann,Your zebra cheesecake has very nice and defined "black" and "white" strips. I love to attempt this cheesecake recipe too :DZoe
Hi Zoe, Oops! Typo error on the title, should be zebra cheesecake. Sorry I was very busy lately and I only drafted this post early this morning. Looking forward to see your attempt soon 🙂
What a pretty cake! Am sure it's delicious too, no wonder your boys asking for a bigger cake. 🙂
It looks wonderful! So soft! I still hesitate if I would be able to make such cheesecake as I have no idea how to steam bake.
Medeja, Take a look on the video. The tutorial is there.
Very nice marble swirls. I very scare of the folding whites into it – scare under or over mixed …
Chris, I think no problem for you lah.
