Dara's Recipe: Pate Choux Dough
Dara's Recipe: Pate Choux Dough
When I orignally posted this back in Jan 2002, I said I had not tried this recipe because it looked like a lot of work. Flash forward to Easter 2007..I finally broke down and made this, and I was right, it is indeed, a lot of work. But it is so worth it. This tastes just like the Junior's cheesecake I ordered off of QVC. I made it again last night for a co-workers birthday and brought it in...everyone was swooning and begging for the recipe! Next time I make this I will make the sponge cake layer a day ahead and just cover it tightly with tin foil and leave it out overnight. You do want to make this a day ahead before you plan to serve it as it's best chilled for at least 8 hours. Enjoy!!!

This cheesecake is a beautiful and delicious labor of love. It is as much work as you might guess, but it is even more delicious than it looks. Yes, the recipe has a long list of ingredients and an equally long list of steps, but it is worth it for a special occasion. Notes: -I...

If you read my blog regularly then you know I always bake cheesecakes. I've been adventurous & tried to make various desserts & cakes in the past two months.
