Describe a really good or memorable dessert you enjoyed?
My once-a-year gigantic, old fashioned, cheese cake. I make it every Christmas for the family, and it takes a total of 4 hours to make, start to finish....First, the sweet pastry takes about an hour to make and bake in a springform pan, then the cheesecake recipe - heavy cream, light cream, 8 eggs plus 2 egg yolks, 8 blocks of cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, bake for 2 and 1/2 hours, open oven door and let it sit for another hour. If I lie down on the couch and fall asleep..... and it sits in the oven for more than hour, it cracks. Serve with cherries on the side.
