항상 치즈를 사랑하는 것 — 제 남편도 그렇게.

우리는 곧 자신의 생일을 축하되기 때문에, I decided to make one instead of a regular birthday cake.

The marvelous recipe that I am about to share with you was tested and approved by both of us several years ago when we still lived in California. It is so special that we have never forgotten it.

더, it was also approved by a veritable cheesecake expert — a British colleague of my husband at Stanford Hospital. According to her, this was the best cheesecake that she had ever eaten in her life (and she’s tried lots of cheesecakes). Another of my husband’s colleagues also enjoyed it so much that he even asked my husband why I didn’t produce them for sale. With a young babe in arms, unfortunately I couldn’t….

잘, I kept the recipe for myself up until now. Instead of selling it, I prefer to share with you. Although today may not be your birthday, your presence here is always very special to me. It’s more valuable than money.

When you try it, I hope that it makes you smile as wide as it will certainly make my beloved husband smile. For him, always the best — and for you as well.

Make it now. Make it for special occasions. Make it for the holidays… Because it’s never too often to indulge yourself and your loved ones with such a culinary jewel.

Thanks again for stopping by!
