Slice of New York Cheesecake with strawberries

I know it’s been a whole week since my last post but I’ve got a perfectly good explanation!

I was skiing in Canada with D and my family and absolutely did not have a minute to get to a computer; the mountain was calling my name day and night.

Skiing is my absolute favorite thing to do and I know I can be a pain to everyone around me because nobody else is interested in skiing until they drop, like I am. I just cannot roll around in a hotel bed after breakfast knowing that I am missing out on valuable skiing moments.

Thankfully everyone came back safe and sound, no broken bones, just some minor collisions and bruises.

Also we were thankfully NOT skiing at Sugar Loaf, otherwise we might have been scarred forever. : /

Anyway, seeing as how it’s been a while since my last post, I figured I’d go with cheesecake today. Cheesecake is one of my all time favorite desserts so it was about time I make the classic NY cheesecake, this time in the form of a cheesecake with strawberries. There is no kidding around with this one. We’re talking about a solid two and half pounds of cream cheese and seven eggs. YIKES!

The end result of my cheesecake with strawberries though is incredible. So smooth, so rich, so decadent. A truly impressive cake, where a thin sliver goes a long way.

Nutella swirls and strawberry slices made for a great topping to balance out the thickness and creaminess of the cake itself.

Sometimes you buy strawberries and they taste like absolutely nothing, as if they’ve just been put together in a lab and colored red and green.ย Somehow I lucked out with these strawberries though, they were full of flavor, so sweet and absolutely delicious.
