鲁斯：你需要底开式烘焙罐，搅拌器、碗和叉子，我想大概就这些东西。
Akane: I see.....Now, how do you get started with this recipe? What do you do first?
茜：我知道了……那要怎么开始呢？要先做什么？
Ruth: The first thing that you do is you crush the digested biscuits, and so that they're like crumbled, and then you heat the butter, and you add the butterto the digested biscuits.
鲁斯：首先要把饼干弄碎，弄成粉末状，然后加热黄油，再把黄油加进消化饼干里。
Akane: OK, well that sounds easy enough. And what do you do next?
茜：好，听起来很简单。然后要做什么？
Ruth: Well then you leave that in the fridge for a day, then when you come back to it, you whisk the cream, you whip it up, and then you add the condensed milk to the cream with the fork very slowly, you fold it in.
鲁斯：然后把它放进冰箱里一天的时间再拿出来，搅拌奶油，快速搅拌之后把炼乳加进奶油里，要用叉子慢慢拌入。
Akane: Oh, fold it in. Is that hard to do?
茜：哦，搅拌。这很难做吗？
Ruth: It's quite, yeah, it involves skill. It's quite delicate.
鲁斯：对，非常难，这需要技术，熟练的技术。
Akane: OK. Is that it? Is there any other steps?
茜：好。完成了吗？还需要其他步骤吗？
Ruth: Well, then you need to heat the chocolate spread up and you need to add it to the top and fold that in as well.
鲁斯：然后你要把巧克力酱加热，把巧克力酱放在最上面，同样要慢慢调入。
Akane: And it's done?
茜：完成了吗？
Ruth: And then that's the end of the cheesecake.
鲁斯：这样芝士蛋糕就完成了。
Akane: Oh, OK. Now, with this recipe is there anything you need to be careful of?
茜：哦，好的。做这个蛋糕有没有要注意的地方？
Ruth: Not really, I mean it's quite easy, but the main thing is that you leave the digested mixture in the fridge for long enough, and then after the whole cheesecake is ready, you still have to put it back in the fridge. I'm always tempted to eat it immediately, but you have to wait a few hours for it to cool.
鲁斯：没有什么，我是说这很简单，不过最主要的事情是你要把消化饼干混合物放进冰箱里足够长的时间，在整个芝士蛋糕做完之后，你还要把它再放进冰箱。我总是想马上吃掉那个蛋糕，可是你必须要等几个小时，让它完全冷却。
Akane: Oh, that sounds great. Thanks Ruth.
茜：哦，听起来很棒。谢谢你，鲁斯。
Ruth: OK.
鲁斯：不客气。
