Summer is almost here and do you know how I know? Ontario strawberry season has arrived! Look what I found at the grocery store this week:
There are so many things that I LOVE to make with strawberries including jams, muffins and strawberry butter, but this year I’m going to make something NEW! You’ve guessed it…..CHEESECAKE with Philadelphia Cream Cheese, naturally!
Do you think my cheesecake could look as good as this one? I love the swirled look!
Confession Time…
I have never made a cheesecake! I have made “no-bake” cheesecakes, but for some reason I don’t count those as REAL cheesecakes. Stay tuned to hear how my experience turns out.
In the meantime, if you have created your own cheesecake recipe, I encourage you to enter the Philadelphia Cheesecake of the Year Contest!
