Cheesecake - ostkaka


""Ostkaka", cheesecake, is a traditional dish from the province of Småland in southern Sweden. Swedes normally do not prepare the dish themselves but buy it ready-made. However, "ostkaka" is not easily available outside Sweden; hence we have included a recipe (which should serve 15-20 persons as a dessert) for those who would like to try."

200 grammes almonds
10 pieces bitter almonds
