Just because it's Summer doesn't mean you have to cut out your favorite cheesecake dessert; after all, today is National Cheesecake Day! My suggestion? Take a note from the Italians, who sub out cream cheese in favor of ricotta cheese for a lighter, more seasonally-appropriate cheesecake that isn't quite so rich. Go the traditional dessert route, dressing the top with a glamorous mixture of navel oranges and caramel. Or, if you're feeling daring, impress a crowd by composing a savory parmesan, basil, and ricotta "cheesecake" to spread atop an assortment of crackers. Take a slice out of either warm-weather favorite when you read more.
