Ingredients
- 1 package of Marie cookies + 4 cookies
- 100 g butter
- 400 g cream cheese spread
- 6 tbsp sugar
- 3 sachets of curd powder
- 500 ml milk
- 200 g cherries (candied cherries)
- 100 g sugar (candied cherries)
- 1 vanilla pod (candied cherries)
Method
- Crush the cookies with the help of a food processor, add the softened butter and 1 tablespoon of water and mix until the ingredients are incorporated. Pour the mixture into the mold and line the base and walls with it to a uniform thickness, pressing with the fingertips.
- Beat the cheese with the sugar, milk, and curd to eliminate any lumps and pour the resulting liquid into the mold over the cookie base.
- Bake in the oven, preheated to 180 ºC, for about 25-30 minutes or until the center has set.
- Wash the cherries and remove the pits by cutting them in half. Put them in a saucepan with 80 ml of water, the vanilla pod split in half, and the sugar, and cook for 7-8 minutes. Leave in the saucepan until they cool. Then remove the cherries and let the syrup thicken for a few minutes.
- Once the cake has been cooked, leave it to cool completely. Place in the refrigerator for a few hours to make it more solid, remove the mold and enjoy. *For best results, grease or flour the pan at the beginning of the preparation.
