Pie with berries and cheese cream
4 servings
60 minutes
Berry pie with cheese cream is a refined combination of crispy puff pastry, delicate creamy filling, and rich berry topping. This dessert resembles traditional Italian sweets that use ricotta cheese for a unique texture. Almond flour adds subtle nutty notes, while caramelized berries provide a bright contrast to the sweet cream. The aroma of vanilla gives the pie sophistication. An ideal choice for summer tea parties or cozy evenings, this pie delights not only with its taste but also with its aesthetics—the deep ruby hue of the berries makes it truly festive. It can be served as a standalone dessert or alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream to enhance the flavor harmony.
