Cheesecake
Last time I was home I went to a second hand discount store called Ollie’s where I bought this huge cookbook for around five bucks that is filled with all sorts of amazing recipes. I have been using it for almost a year now and it has yet to fail me.
My latest concoction is this delicious looking cheesecake.
It is a very basic recipe and you can go crazy with the toppings. I chose this delicious berry medley but you can use whatever you like.
Last time I made a cheesecake my crust got burned and I was very upset. This book taught me a little trick and it makes so much sense. When you put the cake in the oven put it in a large roasting pan filled with hot water. I am going to attribute that little trick to the crust not burning this time around.
As delicious as this looks I am not going to touch it until thanksgiving. So into the fridge it goes until turkey day!
