Weeknight Cooking Part 3 of 3: Screw dinner, we're moving straight to dessert!

Whippity do da!

Last weekend I tried a berry cheesecake that knocked my socks off. Trees Organic Cafe in Vancouver was serving it, Ruedi discovered it and I ate it. That's all you need to know. 

This is a cheater's version. Wish I could attempt to make the air-dried bison we ate too, but that's a little above me.
