Buttermilk and honey cheesecake

I had buttermilk left over from the soda bread that I made last week, so I decided to make this. This is not a cheesecake that I would have ever chosen to make, but it turned out quite nicely.
The base of it is a sponge flan case - yes a bought one! I was surprised, but happy to go with it. The cheesecake itself had soft cheese, buttermilk, honey and various other ingredients. In stark contrast to the previous cake which hardly seemed to cover the bottom of the tin, this one nearly overflowed!
Once it was cooked and cooled, honey was used to glaze the top. The result was quite a light cheesecake, which was a surprise as the cooked ones are usually heavier. The honey flavour was quite delicate, and I served it with strawberries to give it a bit of contrast. Even Ad, who is not a cheesecake fan enjoyed it. We gave it 8.0
