Let them eat Cheesecake!!

For Thanksgiving, William's mom asked if we could bring a dessert to share! So after some discussion, it was decided that we would make a cheesecake. We've never attempted one before - this was our first! and I must say, it wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be. Sure, there were a lot of steps but it was mostly waiting. After baking in the oven for 1 hour, we had to crack the door to the oven, turn it off and let it cool for another hour, like that. We assume this is to prevent the cake from cracking. We chose a "Turtle Cheesecake" so it had an oreo crust, and a chocolate, caramel and pecan top. It was very yummy and everyone praised the cheesecake!



Did you know this is what is in a cheesecake?
