My mother often made this lovely fruit-topped cheese-cake. Now our grown sons consider it my "signature dessert". Sometimes, I bake and freeze the cheesecake ahead. On the day I serve it, I thaw it, then add the fruit. -Christine Eilerts Tulsa, Oklahoma

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries have a sweeter and more vibrant flavor than frozen or canned cherries. If you can't find fresh cherries, frozen cherries are a good substitute.
  • The cherry filling.: Add a tablespoon of cornstarch to the cherry mixture before simmering to help thicken the filling if you want a thicker filling.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: This will give your dessert a more complex flavor. A good combination is to use a creamy cheese, such as cream cheese or ricotta cheese, and a hard cheese, such as Parmesan or cheddar cheese.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing will make the cake tough. Mix the batter until the ingredients are just combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cake is cooked through.
  • Let the cake cool completely before serving: This will allow the flavors to develop and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

These cheese and cherry desserts are a delicious and easy way to end your meal. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual family gathering to a formal dinner party. With so many different recipes to choose from, you are sure to find one that you and your guests will love.
