Ingredients
- l lb. (1/2 kg) soft goat cheese (use freshest cheese possible)
- l lb. (1/2 kg) sugar
- 2 cups water
- 12 egg yolks
- 4 egg whites
Directions
Grate the cheese. Boil sugar in water to the consistency of a thick syrup. Add the cheese and mix well. Next, remove the mixture from heat and combine with beaten egg yolks and egg whites.
Sprinkle the bottom of a pan with burnt sugar. Pour in the mixture and bake in a double boiler. The latter may also be accomplished by placing the pan with the mixture into a pan filled with hot water. The mixture can also be baked in a shallow, buttered and floured baking pan.
Bake in the oven. After removed and cooled, cut into squares and top with granulated sugar.
