Cotton Soft Japanese Cheesecake

I have baked this Japanese Cheesecake for the first time and it was very successful. The recipe is so easy to follow and manage to do it without much hassle. The texture was really very soft and nice. The taste of the cheesecake is fantastic as well, not too chessy nor too sweet, perfect. Will bake it again and post the pictures up.
