Lime Cheesecake with Delicious Berry Syrup


It is time for a desert recipe, isn't it? With time you guys will see that I am best at cooking, but not the best at baking, usually who takes this part is my husband, I do make some delicious little things myself, like for example this lime cheesecake with berry syrup. It may sound a little different the ingredients I use on this one, but please trust me, it will taste amazing. It's a promise!

Ingredients

For the cheesecake:

1 1/2 cup (150g) of unsalted butter 
1 cup (200g) of finely ground graham cracker crumbs 
1/2 cup (100g) of oat 
1 tea spoon of vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups (600g) of cream cheese 
1 cup (150g) of sugar 
2 limes (zest and juice)
Zest of one orange
1 1/5 cups (300g) of heavy milk 

For the syrup:

2 cups (400g) of a mix of berries (in my case I used raspberries, blueberries and a little of strawberries)
1/2 cup(100g) of sugar
4 table spoons of good natural raspberry - or another berry you like - jam (go for the ones that are not so sweet, you're already going to add sugar to the syrup so you don't want it to be too sweet)
