Hi everyone, today I’m sharing a recipe for one of the most delicious cheesecakes out there, definitely on my top list. It’s a cheesecake with a shortcrust pastry and a lattice top, topped with lemon icing. I also spread the shortcrust pastry with blackcurrant jam, which gives it a beautiful appearance and enhances the cheesecake’s flavor. The cheesecake is incredibly delicate, moist, and always a success. It’s tall and substantial. I highly recommend it for any occasion, whether it’s a family gathering, a party, or the holidays.
