Quesada

This is a really nice dessert which originates from Cantabria, Spain.  It is definitely filling and is usually cut into small squares because it is so rich.  Hope you like it.  This calls for a plain yogurt or a lemon flavoured yogurt and then the milk, sugar, and flour are then measured in the yogurt cup.  Here in Spain, the average yogurt is 125 grams (4.4 ounces) so anything around that size will do.
All you have to do is beat together the following ingredients:
3 eggs
1 plain or lemon flavoured yogurt
2 yogurt cups of milk
2 yogurt cups of sugar
1 yogurt cup of flour
7 fl ounces of cream ( a little over 3/4 cup)
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
4 Laughing Cow cheese wedges (This is the second recipe that calls for this cheese.  Oh how it makes me laugh)
Preheat oven to 350 and grease a pie pan with butter.  Bake for one hour.  This is much tastier at room temperature so I would wait for it to cool before eating! Buen provecho.

  1. I debuted this at the Super Bowl party last night. It was really good. I think some fresh fruit and a little powdered sugar on top would have made it even better.
