I have to confess that I spent the first half of my life not loving cheesecake. I just didn't understand it. Then, lo and behold, at the farmers' market in New Orleans, I was introduced to cheesecake made...
Expect a line to form when you unveil this stunning dessert. It's swirled throughout with tangy lemon curd, which amplifies the richness of the surrounding cheesecake.
An experiment I had that turned out rather delicious. Everyone I know loves it. Makes enough to ice and decorate a sheet cake. Store any unused frosting in an airtight container.
While my mother-in-law's rugelach were filled with cinnamon-sugared nuts, mine also include a slick of jam, some currants and a handful of chopped chocolate.
