Directions
Guava Cheese Tart,This is recipe by M.S. Milliken & S. Feniger which I found on joycesfinecookin.com. We “Latinos” love “guyaba con queso” in all shapes and forms. So here is a different twist to the favorite. I didn’t allow for chilling times, as these may vary.,Excellent, excellent, excellent. Try to use the guava paste because nothing else tastes like it. used yogurt cheese for the cheeses since, as we know, the guava is the star. I don’t know if I made the cutout right, but it came out so pretty anyway. Thanks for posting.
