June 6, 2019 - Woody Allen

I made this cheesecake, but I only want to have it

I like slightly toasted almond crust, so I baked it. I served it with nice whipped cream and nuts.

Some calls to lighten the cream cheese, I did it as smooth and dark as I could. A butter caramel was on top of the cream cheese, vanilla and cinnamon.

I just made one and I wanted to share it. It’s fancy, it’s good, but it’s mostly delicious.
