Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars

As soon as I saw these, I knew I had to make them.  Being the cookie dough lover that I am, I knew they would be good, and when you put cheesecake in the picture, there was no going back.  These are very similar to a traditional cheesecake, but made easier by baking them in [...]

White Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Cheesecake

David and I went to an end-of-the-year dinner for a class I was taking at church, and I offered to bring dessert.  I thought a cheesecake would be a good idea, and I eventually settled on this one.  I thought raspberry would be perfect for the warmer weather, and the combination of white chocolate and [...]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake (Daring Bakers)

The April 2009 challenge is hosted by Jenny from Jenny Bakes. She has chosen Abbey’s Infamous Cheesecake as the challenge.
Holy freaking amazing cheesecake, Batman!  I’ve posted a few time in the past that I’m not a big cheesecake person.  It started to change when I made the Brownie Mosaic Cheesecake, and realized that I do [...]

Oreo Cheesecake

I made this cheesecake a long while ago for that church dinner where I was in charge of all the desserts, but got so busy with other more seasonal posts that I wanted to get in that I never posted it.  This was a great choice for a dessert to serve a crowd.  Cheesecake generally [...]

Hidden Berry Cream Cheese Torte

This recipe was chosen on January 15, just before I joined Tuesdays with Dorie.  I was intrigued by it because it was similar to a cheesecake but was still a bit different.  My husband was also itching for me to make this, so he was finally happy   I’m not a big cheesecake fan, [...]

Tuesdays with Dorie: Tall and Creamy Cheesecake

This week Anne of Anne Strawberry chose the Tall and Creamy Cheesecake.  I actually made this back in October for the Stewardship Dinner at my church where I made the desserts.  I wanted a simple cheesecake, and this delivered.  This was a great basic cheesecake and it would be so easy to adapt to your [...]

Brownie Mosaic Cheesecake

Finally, a cheesecake I am in love with!  I love dessert, but cheesecake is not one of my favorites.  The minute I saw this recipe on Smitten Kitchen, however, I knew I must make it.  The thought of brownies mixed in the cheesecake batter and the chocolate cookie crust made me think that this would [...]

Black Bottom Brownies

I was looking through my copy of the Sweet Melissa Baking Book, trying to decide what to make. My usual complaint about cookbooks when they don’t have enough pictures, but for some reason this book is different. With this book I have no problem drooling over the treats by picturing them in my [...]

April Daring Bakers: Cheesecake Pops

This month’s Daring Bakers Challenge was hosted by Elle of Feeding My Enthusiasms and Deborah of Taste & Tell. Thank you Deborah and Elle for hosting! They chose the Cheesecake Pops from Jill O’Connor’s book Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey. I’ve seen many bloggers make recipes from this book, and I think that I [...]

Tuesdays with Dorie Week 7: Brown Sugar-Apple Cheesecake

This week at Tuesdays with Dorie, Jaime of Good Eats ‘n Sweet Treats chose the Brown Sugar-Apple Cheesecake. I am not a big cheesecake eater, but I know several people who love it, so I am happy to make one when it is requested. This cheesecake was one of the tastiest cheesecakes I’ve [...]
