TORONTO — Ontario’s premier has released a “Cooking with Doug” video showing how he makes cherry cheesecake.

On a tangent during a news conference this week, Doug Ford boasted about making the best cherry cheesecake ever.

The video posted on the premier’s Twitter account today shows Ford at home making what he calls his famous recipe.

He says he has had it memorized since he was 10, when he learned it from his mother.

Ford says if he wasn’t premier, he would open up a Cheesecake Factory restaurant.
