It’s amazing how a recipe can bring so many memories. Good and dear memories! I remember how I used to hate eating liver, as child. I think the only form I used to accept it was homemade pate! Oh boy, and my Mom sure was an expert in that! She still is, bless her, and every time when we get together she knows there is nothing I’ll love more than a full jar of liver pate!
Sophisticated and decadent. That’s what I can say about this recipe. The idea came up while I was trying to make something more than just a cheesecake. I am not a huge fan of cheese paired with orange, lemon or chocolate, so I have tried to make them work together. I was sure that is something that can make them combine beautifully. And I was right! I have to admit that this one is pretty impressive. Although everyone has a favourite recipe, I think you will fall in love with this one and you might put it in the top of the list. Everyone will ask for another slice! My family sure did! [Read more…]
