The Father’s Day cake combines cocoa and orange.
The cookie base requires nothing more than crumbling. RONI LETHI
A cake built in glass is easy to make, reminds the chef Risto Mikkola. If you don’t want to find space in the fridge for a bigger cake, a cake made in glass also solves the storage problem.
Assembling a glass cake is easy, but if you don’t want to use glasses, you can also make the cake in a serving bowl or baking dish.
This portion made in glass is fresh and delicious, orange and Domino cookies take care of it. You can make an easy cake base from the cookies. Mikkola uses Domino cookies with a strong cocoa flavor.
The cream-egg mass is cooked in steam. In addition to orange, citrus freshness comes from lime and lemon.
The jammed orange peel gives the cheesecake its own additional flavor. It makes a good addition to many baked goods and desserts. You can jam the peel in sugar broth by boiling it.
This cake is best for Father’s Day morning or brunch.
You can also assemble the cheesecake in a bowl. RONI LETHI
