Why Cheesecake?

If i could, I would. That is, to marry a man who knows how to bake cheesecakes.

The wonderful part of a cheesecake, is that you can eat it alone with a glass of white wine, or have it as a dessert after a satisfying meal - to make the meal MORE satisfying.

Tis the Season to be Cheesy~

No ovens at home? Craving for some cheesecake?? Well I am!!

So here comes the CHEESECAKEGAL TO THE RESCUE!!


















No Bake Cheesecake
!!


Ingredients:

1 graham cracker crust
3 packages softened Philadelphia Cream Cheese
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1/8 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup powdered sugar


Directions:

1. Blend the cream cheese, whipping cream, brown sugar, white sugar, vanilla and powdered sugar thoroughly with an electric mixer.

2. Spoon into graham cracker crust. Chill for 4-6 hours before serving.

*************

And that's kinda.................all?
Yep that's all!! So you just need the ingredients, your hands, the electric mixer, some brain cells to follow instructions and something to HOLD the cake when it's done!!!

You don't need an oven. I promise. And I don't have one in the first place, that's why I eat cheesecakes OUTSIDE :( Will someone buy me one so that i can keep baking??

And the recipe has been taken from a website called MomsWhoThink :)

And here's some creative baking suggestions from an amateur like me:

1. if you cant get the graham cracker crust, you can actually make your own by going to this website called eHow.com!! OR you can just buy a real HUGE COOKIE that you can pour your cheesecake mixture on :)

I know, i refer to websites a lot for instructions.....but hey, i am not in the position to GIVE instructions, the most i can do is filter the information online and DIRECT readers to the appropriate places where they are certainly qualified to tell you what to do!!!

2. don't you find the cheesecake mixture a little too plain for your liking? Add some raisins! Chocolate chips! Bits and pieces of strawberries!! Pecans! (Even though i hate nuts....I feel obliged to mention the "goodness" of those things, for the greater good of everybody else) Or if you feel that the cheesecake isn't fattening enough, whip some cream and coat the cake with those white stuff!!

Now that's a new way to celebrating Christmas!! Have a Cheesy Christmas!!!

Have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!!
