Goat Cheese with Roasted Red Cherries Ice Cream

With fresh cherries all over the city it was no question that our next recipe would be goat cheese with roasted red cherries. I cut the sugar back a bit, because I'm not a fan of overly saccharine things and it's a reality check seeing the exact amount being added. This ice cream still has a very decadent taste and is similar to a cheesecake.

I love ashy goat cheese, so that's what I used. Best of all we were able to share some with Stefan's parents who came up for a visit. My father-in-law preferred this to the Sweet Corn + Blackberries, although they are distinctly different.

I'm already getting anxious to try some Autumn flavors, like cinnamon ice cream with an apple crumble in my Weck jars... or lebkuchen with spiced nuts.

Any other flavor suggestions?

Sounds delicious!

I'd vote for something with some caramel and spekulatius cookies

Good idea! I am really looking forward to the Autumn flavors and will probably be first in line to buy lebkuchen when it appears next month.

Birne-Mascarpone always gets our vote for Onset-of-Fall ice cream flavors.

Good one, Cliff... I added it to the list.
