Cheesecake in Israel

Hi Chanie, I was wondering if you can share a cheesecake recipe that you have made when you lived in Israel. I read your editor's note in the family table :) In the Whisk, Leah Nagel gives a recipe for Mini Milk Chocolate Topped Cheesecakes. Would the "gilo" work as a substitute for the cream cheese it calls for? Thanks! Goldie
