There's no rule that says cheese can only be served at the beginning or end of a meal: this cheese lovers' menu showcases a different type in every dish.

Truffle-Ricotta Panna Cotta with Lamb's Lettuce

Use the highest quality ricotta you can find to make this stunning, savory panna cotta.

Soufflé Crêpes Filled with Wild Mushrooms and Bellwether Farms Crescenza Cheese

If Crescenza isn't available, substitute a mild, creamy cow's milk cheese like Taleggio or Teleme. The crêpe batter and the mushroom filling can both be made up to a day ahead of time.

Fingerling, Brie, and Braised Beef Poutine

This spectacular version of the classic Canadian dish is topped with thick slices of creamy brie and a sprinkling of smoked Cheddar.

Heavenly Crown

Rich dark chocolate and a ladyfinger crust only make this cream cheese-based dessert all the more heavenly.
