Torta del Casar with Sherry Syrup

Image may contain Glass Plant Food Meal and Dish

Torta del Casar is a unique Spanish sheep's-milk cheese from the region of Extremadura. It has a soft, creamy texture similar to Brie or Camembert, either of which can be substituted. Here the cheese is drizzled with a syrup made from Pedro Ximénez—the sweetest of Sherries. If unavailable, a good-quality Spanish cream Sherry can be used instead.
