之前烘培幾次酸奶脆餅（優格酸奶溶豆～曉廷愛烘焙的廚房）, 今天自己挑戰試用乳酪奶油和車打乳酪做了這款乳酪脆餅。很開心, 竟然可以創出這款美味的寶寶餅～! 寶寶一直嚷著還要吃呢。

10g grated cheddar cheese 10克 車打乳酪

4) take 1/3 of the egg white mix into the cheese mixture, beat well or stir well. Then add in to the 2/3 of the egg white, fold in gently to avoid eliminating the bubbles.

將1/3的蛋白加入乳酪團裡, 攪拌均勻後倒進2/3的蛋白。用切入的方式, 輕柔地攪拌均勻。不要過份攪拌。
