Serve this dessert at your next Holiday dinner party or it also makes a great appetizer.  Either way this cake bakes up so beautifully; it is light and tangy so you will enjoy this treat no matter how it is served.  I have added a dessert topping using frozen Montmorency cherries and FruitFast Montmorency Cherryflex Liquid Fruit Supplement, but this recipe is so good on its own, a simple drizzle any of the FruitFast Liquid Fruit Supplements over the top will suffice.  As a milk sensitive individual, I am always looking for recipes that I can eat without any problems.   I use goat cheese and sheep cheese as a substitute whenever I can.  The following recipe comes from www.culinaryconcoctionsbypeabody.com/2007/08/03/get-your-goat/ and has been in my collection for awhile, but I did not prepare it until recently.  I regret  not using this recipe sooner, as it is WONDERFUL!
Bon Appetit!

Ingredients:
10     oz goat cheese
1/4    cup sugar
2     Tbsp honey
1     tsp vanilla
1     tsp lemon zest
1     tsp lemon juice
6     eggs, separated
3     Tbsp flour

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 350°F.  Combine cheese, sugar, honey, vanilla, zest and juice. Mix well. Add egg yolks, two at a time, mixing to combine after each addition. Stir in flour. Beat egg whites until soft peaks form. Gently fold whites into cheese batter. Pour into well-greased 9 – inch, round baking pan, or springform pan. Bake 25-30 minutes or until wooden skewer comes out clean. Invert onto large plate and cool.

Montmorency Cherry Orange-Cherry Compote

1     cup frozen Montmorency Tart Cherries
1/3     cup orange juice (no pulp)
2     Tbsp honey
1     tsp cornstarch
2    Tbsp FruitFast Montmorency Cherry Liquid Fruit Supplement
splashes of Grand Marnier

Directions:

Whisk together orange juice and cornstarch, making sure it dissolves so there are not clumps. Place the cherries, juice/cornstarch mixture, and honey in a sauce pan. Turn on medium heat. Cool, stirring every 30 seconds or so until it has thickened up.  If it takes forever to thicken, mix a little more cornstarch with a small amount of orange juice and add to the mixture. Remove from heat and add the FruitFast Liquid Fruit Supplement and  splashes of Grand Marnier to taste. Spoon over the Goat Cheese Cake.
