We were a part of the military community for 20+ years. I was a DODDS teacher and my husband worked as a civilian for the Air Force. We were stationed in Guantanamo Cuba, Ramstein Germany and Okinawa Japan. This recipe was inspired by our tour in Germany. We enjoyed Käsekuchen for breakfast, afternoon snack, or as a dessert! My version of Käsekuchen is fast, easy and delicious!
