Cream Cheese Dessert With Cherries & Brittle
Sometimes I have to wonder how quickly the years move into the country. “The children make you realize how old you are,” my grandma had always said and I never wanted it to be so true. But she was right. At the same time, I do not even think of my son but of my cousin.
She is now over thirty years old and her tree is just as old, her cherry tree, to be exact. My uncle and my aunt planted him for their birth. I also saw him “growing up” and shared my pleasure when he blossomed beautifully in the spring and carried many cherries in the summer. In addition, I also benefited from it and dusted some cherries or plastered them directly on the site.
MY SUMMER FRESH CHEESE DESSERT WITH CHERRIES AND CROQUET
Sweet cherries therefore not only have this wonderful taste for me, which I love very much. No, they also give me a lot of nice memories of many past summers with the Family. That’s why I decided it was time to dedicate a dessert recipe to the cherry itself.
CROQUANT HOMEMADE – EASIER THAN THINKING
Namely my cream cheese dessert with cherries and brittle. Combined with a not-too-heavy cream which I have used, among other cream cheese. Also, it has been irritating me for a very long time even to make brittle, to give a dessert a crunchy note.
In this case my cream cheese dessert with cherries and brittle. For a long time, I thought making brittle is too complicated, but if you take a trick, it’s easy. Namely, the sugar that you put in the pan, literally once to leave alone. In other words, let it melt in a nonstick pan (or pot) without stirring. When it has melted, add some butter until light brown, and then immediately stir in the almonds. That’s it. And if it does not succeed the first time? No matter, just try again.
ALSO TASTES WITH OTHER BERRIES
By the way, you can just change the cherries with cherries and cherries in the fresh cheese dessert with cherries and brittle. It does not matter if sweet cherries or sour cherries. The latter is not so bad either, because they are loaded with sugar. Or you just use completely different fruits of the season.
