It's all about Watkins! |
I’m giving myself 365 days or 365 recipes to make up my mind on whether getting down and dirty in the food business is truly something I want to do, or if I just simply enjoy baking as a hobby. My blog will be about the entire experience of cooking and baking new recipes. I’ll keep ya posted…

Strawberry Cheesecake Torte from Taste of Home -Recipe #1
Strawberry Cheesecake Torte |
I whipped this pretty lady up one evening after work. It felt like it'd take a lot more effort than it actually did. It was a very simple and light dessert. I'm not a huge fan of cream cheese so my boyfriend brought a tasty surprise to work! Critics say it was not too sweet or rich, but light and creamy, the fruit packed the right punch to top it off. The filling between the angel food cake layers was a mixture of cream cheese, vanilla pudding, and whip cream (all low fat). The angel food cake mix was prepared on a 15x10 1in deep sheet. The parchment paper used on the bottom of the sheet was a life saver! This is the perfect spring dessert.
To round it up I.....
- Prepared the cake
- Let it cool
- Glazed with a gelatin mixture
- Chilled it in the fridge
- Made the filling
- Cut the cake into 3
- Spread the filling into the layers
- Topped with fresh strawberries and kiwi
