This rich, 11 inch tart is made with two pounds of fresh, hand pitted cherries-none of that canned cherry filling here! The cherries sit on a shortbread crust featuring crushed, toasted almonds and sweet butter. The chocolate crumbles also consist of crushed, toasted almonds and sweet butter. With over two pounds of cherries and nearly ½ pound of sweet butter, this is a truly special dessert!
I ordered Effie’s cheesecake for our Easter dinner and was extremely happy. Everyone thought it was truly outstanding. It was so delicious and creamy. She kindly reduced the calories by making adjustments; this was pleasing for us and our diabetic friends. I am definitely ordering this amazing cheesecake for our next special occasion. I have been so pleased with all the baked goods ordered from Effie; this cheesecake is really note worthy along with all her wonderful “goodies”.
