It’s that time of the year again… mid May and my birthday! I didn’t want to plan anything for my birthday this year. I had a great trip to Amalfi and South Tyrol, now I am planing my trip to Bali end of this month – so it’s more than enough for me. But birthday’s aren’t just for you. They’re for your friends! It’s their chance to let their hair down, throw on something sparkly and dance the night away… with no guilt, because after all… they’re doing it for your birthday! 🙂 This year, I gathered my family and closest friends for a pre-birthday brunch on Sunday and today I will celebrate my after-birthday with champagne and cake with my close friends.
Thinking about an easy dessert recipe ‘made with love’ with Philadelphia, cheesecake parfait is my jam. After much consideration and a good deal of deliberation, I’ve decided that a cheesecake parfait with Philadelphia, is a dessert with style. Sweet but not too sweet, fresh, fluffy and crunchy. It’s the perfect dessert for dinner or tea time, but for a birthday it feels even more special. I love to make cheesecake parfaits that are just as scrumptious as they sound.
Philadelphia ‘made with love’ cheesecake parfaits are made with cream cheese, strawberries and sweet topping.
