Israeli Biscuit Cheesecake (Ougat Biskvitim)

Guila Sandroussy

Whip up this cake in minutes, even your kids can do it!!


I’ve been making this cake countless times now and I absolutely love serving it as shabbat breakfast or for seudah shlishit dessert.


Its fresh, not too sweet and pairs so well with coffee and fruit!


You’re welcome to even skip the gvina levana to keep it non dairy, but I love the tartness that it brings to the cake.
