This is summed up like this, I was going to take a shower now and decided to come to the computer to finish my post first!
because later the house swallows me!
This is a dessert (red fruit cheescake) that could perfectly serve for Christmas.
I like these little glass serving containers and each one with its own portion.
A base of cookies, Cream Cheese and on top of this a compote of red fruits (use frozen) even though here we already have natural fruits (blueberries, strawberries and others are not always found)
