Best Ever Rice Cooker Fluffy Cheesecake Recipe and More!
1. Japanese Cheesecake
There are few recipes as exciting and delicious as Japanese cheesecake. It’s a super fluffy version of your favorite dessert but sweeter and lighter.

It may not be like the Cheesecake Factory, but it’s equally as delicious. Try it and see for yourself!

This rice cooker orange upside-down cake follows the same principles as a typical upside-down dessert. You’ll arrange the oranges on the bottom of the pan and cover them with cake batter.

So it’s ideal for your next dinner party.
