Cheesecake, also known as cheesecake, is a creamy and delicious dessert made primarily with cream cheese, sugar, and a base of cookies or crushed dough. Originating in ancient Greece, cheesecake became popular in its modern version in the United States, especially in New York, where the famous New York cheesecake was created, characterized by its dense and rich texture.
This dessert is very versatile and can include different additional ingredients such as fruits, chocolate, or caramel sauces, adapting to various tastes and culinary styles. It is ideal to serve as a finale to special meals or for snacks.
Properties: Cheesecake is a good source of protein and calcium thanks to the cream cheese, although it is usually high in fats and sugars, so it is recommended to consume it in moderation.
Synonyms in Spanish in Latin America: tarta de queso, torta de queso, quesillo (in some regions), and in some countries it is simply known as cheesecake.
