Instructions
- Begin by selecting the finest quality artisan bread, such as a thick-cut brioche or sourdough loaf, and slice it into 1-inch thick pieces.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 8 oz of full-fat cream cheese at room temperature with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract, and the zest of half a lemon, beating until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Preheat your broiler to high and arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture on each slice of bread, ensuring it covers the surface evenly.
- Place the baking sheet under the broiler and watch closely, broiling for about 2-4 minutes or until the tops are golden brown and caramelized.
- While the toasts are broiling, prepare a simple berry compote by combining 1 cup of mixed berries, such as raspberries, blueberries, and sliced strawberries, with 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan.
- Cook the berry mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the berries have softened and released their juices, forming a syrup-like consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the toasts from the broiler once they are done, and let them cool slightly on the baking sheet.
- To serve, place the cheesecake toasts on individual plates and spoon the warm berry compote over each toast.
