Daring Bakers: Cheesecake with Roasted Rum Pineapple and Pineapple Flowers
The April 2009 challenge is hosted by Jenny from Jenny Bakes. She has chosen Abbe's Infamous Cheesecake as the challenge.
For this month's Daring Baker's challenge, we were supposed to make cheesecake, but do something different and wonderful to it. I've always wanted to make these pineapple flowers and thought about a roasted pineapple and rum topping I had made a while back for a cheesecake. So I put the two items together and it made a beautiful cheesecake. Jenny's recipe didn't call for sour cream or creme fraiche in the recipe, but I do believe it gives a cheesecake a special flavor and I always add it.
