Joshua Weissman gives air-fryer cheesecake a skeptical taste test

Chocolate, yogurt and eggs turn a viral recipe into the channel's only new upload of the week.

Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.

"There's no way that works," Joshua Weissman says before making the chocolate cake himself. The premise of "Testing Air Fryer Cheesecake" is simple enough to invite suspicion: three ingredients, a lined cake pan and an air fryer instead of a conventional oven.

He melts chocolate, mixes yogurt with eggs and whisks everything together. Out comes a slice neat enough to earn an appearance check, followed by a drizzle of chocolate and a bite. His verdict is more forgiving than his opening: the result isn't bad, and the quality of the chocolate will determine how good it tastes.

That leaves a naming question, which viewers are happily picking apart: where is the cheese in this cheesecake? Others ask which yogurt to use, request measurements or suggest replacing some yogurt with cream cheese. The comments have become a small recipe-development session.

The Short has reached about 2.2 million views and is currently the channel's busiest upload. "My baby tries exotic fruit" also continues drawing substantial daily viewing, while "I Tried Fast Food That No Longer Exists" keeps the older taste-test side of the channel active.

Joshua Weissman added 100,000 subscribers over the week, although daily views are currently below his usual pace. Nearby in the food world, Max the Meat Guy also had a substantial viewing week, while Binging with Babish's daily viewing is above its usual level. For Joshua, this week's fresh contribution was a dessert that survived his initial disbelief, even if its cheesecake credentials remain a topic of conversation.

  • It's a yoghurt (yogurt) cake, there is no cheese at all.
  • Greek yogurt or just “regular” yogurt? Also, natural/plain flavor yogurt or go with vanilla?
