CHEESECAKE (WITH FRESH BERRIES)

Answer 1

Our house made cheesecake, made with Ricotta and cream cheese, is very creamy and much lighter than the traditional N.Y. style cheesecake. It is served with a caramelized sugar top and fresh seasonal berries.

The word ricotta means “recooked,” and is derived from the fact that the cheese is made by heating the whey from another cooked cheese. Ricotta is a popular ingredient in many Italian savory preparations like lasagna and manicotti, as well as desserts like cheesecake
