What do you make if you are craving apple pie and cheesecake? Combine them both together of course. The crust is a traditional graham crack crust which is so delicious. Duh, it’s graham cracker crust. In fact, when I pulled it out of the oven my husband said that I could stop there because he’d happily eat the crust by itself. It was a tempting offer, considering I had most of the recipe yet to go. Luckily my husband stuck around to help me finish baking, which made the steps go by quicker. Plus it was more fun. The cheesecake …

Mini Ganache Topped Cheesecake
My blog is 11 years old today! Every blog-iversary I make something chocolate-y (except for one year, what was I thinking?!) chocolate cake, mini cheesecake, coffee chocolate chip cookie bars, chocolate chip doughnuts, single serving whole wheat chocolate chip cookie, chocolate cupcakes for two, banana bread doughnuts with chocolate glaze, warm chocolate fudge cakes, chocolate chip black and white cookies, then chocolate lava cakes. I’m back with another chocolate goodie. I mean it’s almost a requirement now. 😉 I love the mini chocolate cheesecake when I’m craving chocolate. I also love the mini cheesecake when I’m craving a classic cheesecake. The other day I couldn’t decide which …
No Bake Chocolate Cream Pie
It’s the most decadent time of the year and boy does this pie fit the bill. I’m a chocolate lover and even I have to say that this pie borderlines on being almost too chocolate-y … almost. 😉 The chocolate filling is a rich and dense chocolate ganache. You’ll want to cut small pieces, trust me. Think coffee zing times 10 because of all the sugar going on here. The crust is a chocolate cookie crust. Let’s not forget about that whipped topping. Homemade is really the only way to go. I did warn you that this was something for …
Pumpkin Cheesecake (Redux)
There are only three reasons why I would post a recipe more than once here. One, I’ve modified the ingredients or the directions. Two, it’s something that is worthy of being showcased more than once. Three, my pictures of it sort of sucked. This pumpkin cheesecake fits the first two criteria, so you’re getting a redux. 🙂 I first shared this recipe back in 2017. My husband found it at least 14 years ago and we’ve been making it ever since. We’ve never tried any other pumpkin cheesecake recipe because this one is pure perfection. It tastes amazing. Think about …
Baked Chocolate Chip Oatmeal
I kind of feel like I’m going back to school. I saw the school buses this morning as kids return to school. I instantly felt like I was in school and got that sick feeling in my stomach even though I’ve been out of school for years. Does that happen to you? Even though I’m not actually going back to school, I’m getting back to blogging. As you may or may not have noticed, I unintentionally took the summer off from blogging. I thought these chocolate chip oatmeal treats would be a great way to get back into the swing …
