Had already said wise Camões: "Love is a fire that burns unseen; a wound that aches yet isn't felt,an always discontent contentment; a pain that rages without hurting;"! With that inspired poem we present the Lovers Day dessert. Surprise your sweetheart with this extremely creamy cheesecake, melting in your mouth, filled with strawberry lava. The recipe is so good that even the crust is delicious! Better than this cheesecake, only the beloved caress!
