queenoftheskiesYoungest son and I started with the recipe on the Philadelphia cream cheese package and went low fat and sugar free on it.
We had so much fun making it.
I don't think I've ever made cheesecake from scratch before. It would have been a fast procedure if we hadn't been having so much fun with it.
We tasted the batter and, OMG, it's so GOOD.
I'd bought a graham cracker pie crust for it since it had less sugar than the actual crumbs you can use to make your own and I could pick it off if I didn't want it.
To our surprise, we had a LOT of the batter left over after we filled it.
So we pulled out one of the deep dish pie crusts I had in the freezer and FILLED it up too.
Wow, we have cheesecake to spare!
I will definitely do this often since it's so easy.
It's cooking now, then has to go into the fridge for 4 hours and will be ready right about when we're ready for it, I'm guessing.
What kinds of yummy things have you folks cooked for Christmas?
