Pentecost Mini Cherry Cheesecakes - Pentecost

May 2024Recipes

Pentecost is the name of the Jewish festival that was being celebrated in Jerusalem when the Holy Spirit first descended upon Mary and the disciples. It is also called the Feast of Weeks or Shavuot. Originally, this was a spring festival celebrating the first-fruits of the wheat harvest. It also commemorates the giving of the Law to Moses on Mt. Sinai. Tradition says that the people waited so long for Moses to return from Mt. Sinai that the milk curdled and white cheese was left, and so dairy products—specifically cheesecakes and cheese blintzes—are eaten at Shavuot. The whiteness of these dishes serves as a reminder of the purity or holiness of God's Law. These cupcake-sized cheesecakes are quicker and easier than their full-sized counterparts, and the cherry pie topping brings a festive Pentecost-red touch to the traditional white.
