Finally after another week a little hectic, I'm happy to be here and to share my recipe for Valentine's Day!
I did something different this year: A passion fruit cheesecake with ricotta and must say it is a delicious recipe.
Is better doing at night and cut the next day, is the best because it kept refrigerated.
Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
