Ladies and Gentlemen, the sunny season is officially opened!
Lucky us! Since two weeks we’ve been spoilt with beautiful weather here in Belgrade! The sunny days are back, and Belgrade has finally come alive again. The terraces are crowded and the markets offer their tastiest fruits. You can’t be but in a great mood walking around the city and smelling summer wherever you go. Even the “beaches” reopened and people gather at the Ada lake or at the shores of Sava and the Danube.
During these days I’ve been walking around a lot, and wherever I was looking, people were enjoying fruit desserts. So I thought, time has really come to make some fruit dessert by myself.
For my clafoutis I wanted some contrast. That’s why I chose the sour cherries to make it. I didn’t have sour cherries in a while, but not later than two weeks ago I re-tried this lovely ice cup at my favorite coffee shop here in Belgrade. This cup unites sweet vanilla ice-cream, chocolate pudding and sour cherries. I really enjoyed this cup, so I thought it might be a good idea to inspire my own clafoutis recipe by this sweet-sour combination. I can say, I’m happy with the outcome. But rest assured, making this dessert with fresh cherries from your garden, or the farmers market is just as delicious. So it really comes down to your own preferences.
Why you’ll love this recipe?
Incredibly creamy texture: New York Cheesecake is famous for its dense, velvety texture, thanks to a generous amount of cream cheese and a touch of sour cream creating a melt-in-mouth-experience.
Perfect balance of sweet and tangy: The slight tang from the cream cheese and sour cream balances perfectly with the sweetness, giving it a rich but never overly sweet flavour, that keeps you coming back for more.
Crunchy crust: The buttery slightly crunchy crust provides a delicious contrast to the creamy filling, adding a layer of flavour and texture that complements each bite.
Versatile for toppings: New York Cheesecake serves as the ideal canvas for endless toppings – fresh berries, caramel sauce, chocolate drizzle, or even a dusting of powdered sugar – making it a dessert that can be tailored to any craving or occasion.
