Geohoney-Berries & Fresh Cheese (February 16, 2022)
You can tune this dessert recipe to your own taste by simply adjusting the blend of berries, the amount of honey, or even the amount of cheese.
The luxury lies in the amount of berries. Fromage blanc is delightfully subtle, you can use Greek yogurt as it’s tangier.
