Eva's Cheese Cake

Today I like to share a very simple but amazing recipe for a cheese cake.It is sort of a double baked cheese cake with a sour cream topping. The topping is very soft but makes the entire cake even more delicious

The name comes from the owner of Soneva Fushi, Eva. She just simply loves cheese cake and this recipe is one of the favorites since many years.

I do love my cheese cake too and have to admit that this one is really a stunner. The only challenge is that is does not keep well, the topping will be starting to run off after a day, so either you cook and eat the cake on the same day, best place it in the freezer, then it is easy and when it defrosts, the cake stays nicely in shape

I like to serve a freshly made berry sauce with it, leave it chunky for some more texture. The acidity of the berries will go perfect with the creamy richness of the cake

so here is the recipe

125 G Biscuit
