The winner is: Mr. Cheesecake

At the beginning of the year, I promised to prepare some of the recipes that you proposed, so after a survey on my Facebook page, we have a winning recipe: the cheesecake, probably one of the most popular desserts in the world.

The cheesecake has an origin older than we think, in fact already in Ancient Greece there were sweet cakes based on cheese. Over time this recipe has evolved and changed in each country until in the nineteenth century, it crossed the Atlantic. Around the year 1872, a cheesemaker from Philadelphia tried to create a soft cheese, ideal for this type of preparations, and thus the famous Philadelphia cheese was born, indispensable for the cheesecake. But it was only in the twentieth century when the New York cheesecake was born as we know it today, created by Arnold Reuben.

The version that I propose today is a vegan and gluten-free version, prepared with nuts and oats. Despite not containing diary-cheese it has the original cheesecake texture and is really delicious.

Try it also with this jam of rhubarb and ginger.
