Cherry Ricotta Casserole image

This is a very yummy and easy to make warm dessert, which can be served as a main dish as well. The batter resembles a cheesecake, but is not as solid. Accompany with vanilla ice-cream or custard for that extra twist. =) This recipe comes from a famous German chef called Tim Mälzer, who is sometimes referred to as the German Jamie Oliver. I only substituted cherries for the gooseberries he uses.
