Some years ago we had two tornadoes hit my town. Among other things they
took out a S.E. Asian restaurant supplier and the next door neighbour, a
basttery supplies. Batteries and durians were frond over two miles from
their respective stores. Fortunately no one was hit with either.

      Title: Durian Cheesecake
 Categories: Fruit, Dairy, Cheese, Pastry
      Yield: 8 Servings
 
    340 g  (12 oz) cream cheese; room
           - temp
    200 ml Condensed sweetened milk
      4 tb Pureed durian
      2 lg Eggs
    120 ml (2 fl oz) soured cream
      1 ts Vanilla extract
      1 tb Durian or banana extract
      1    (23cm/9") prepared digestive
           - biscuit base
 
  Set oven @ 1706C/340°F/Gas 3.
  
  If not using tinned or frozen durian puree, cut into
  husk of a durian fruit and remove one segment of the
  pulpy inner flesh. Place in a bowl and use a fork to
  mash the flesh, reserving 4 tablespoons to add to the
  cheesecake mixture.
  
  Beat the cream cheese until fluffy. Add the condensed
  milk and continue beating until smooth. Beat in 4
  tablespoons durian, eggs, soured cream, vanilla extract
  and durian or banana extract. Spoon the mixture over the
  prepared digestive biscuit base.
  
  Bake 1 hour or until filling is set and edges are
  lightly browned. Serve warm or chill overnight in the
  refrigerator.
  
  INGREDIENT NOTE: Durian, a large fruit from Southeast
  Asia, has a dark green to brown husk studded with
  prickly thorns concealing pale yellow to red flesh. Some
  find durian's strong odor offensive, but the reward is
  its creamy flesh with a nutty, slightly sweet taste.

.... Fat free cheese doesn't make any sense. Cheese is fat.
