Our very perfect birthday cheesecake, with rote grütze
Cheesecakes
At least for us it truly is! As I have been searching for the perfect birthday cake for my son, we've been observing birthday month, all month long, actually starting even last month. His very favorite cake lately has been Junior's cheesecake. Since I won't be back to NYC until late April, and I am not willing to pay their steep delivery fee, I scouted a best New York cheesecake recipe on squidoo that looked just wonderful (http://www.squidoo.com/bestcheesecakerecipe). It uses only cream cheese, but my favorite cheesecake is the German style made with quark. So here I have varied the ingredients, the quantities, and baking directions. This cake turned out perfectly to match both our tastes at the same time. It just might be the fresh ricotta that serves as our bridge here. For garnish, I have served this with our favorite warm Rote Grütze (made with raspberries and blueberries) and a dollop of sour cream with a rosemary sprig.
