Chèvre Coeur à la Crème with Pistachio Crust

Coeur à la crème—“heart of cream,” in English—can be made from any combination of fresh cheeses, such as farmer’s cheese, cottage cheese, or cream cheese. It is a very simple dish with only a few ingredients the cheese, sugar, cream (or meringue, to make a lighter version), and fruit. The flavor varies according to the proportion of whipped cream and/or meringue added. This recipe is not too sweet and has a little bite, which comes from the addition of chèvre, or fresh goat’s milk cheese. C
