Classic mascarpone cheesecake
Description
Homemade baked goods for tea. This classic mascarpone cheesecake made at home is an example of a simple yet sophisticated dessert. For aroma, I recommend using only vanilla extract. When serving, you can decorate it with berries, citrus, or even chocolate, for example. As for the crust, you can choose absolutely any cookies you like. The baking is ready. Serve at the table.
