S'more Cheesecake @ 5:49 PM
Okay.. so I was originally not planning to update this food blog this month because I really can't think of any foods I really want to eat this month. However, I started to add the white chocolate macadamia cookies and whil e looking for some pictures on Google, I came across a picture that says S'more Cheesecake. I love s'mores! I had it during camping a while back and was like... OOO S'more Cheesecake! wouldn't that be something new; two of my favourite desserts in one recipe! So now, I'm typing away on this recipe. I want to add this to my "to make" list so I will make it when I get home!! Oh my goodness! I have so many things I want to make on my vacation spanning over 2 weeks in January. I don't think I can make it all, but it's good to share it after all! I hope you will enjoy making this delicious dessert. :)
