I made that turtle cheesecake recipe you posted a few weeks back. OH
MAN!!! That was absolutely delicious. I modified it a little bit by double the cheesecake recipe part since I like high cheesecakes, but all the proportions and carmel and pecans were in there as called for. Also, I used chocolate graham crackers for the crust in stead of wafers - whatever those are. It was determined by the guy I spend much of my time with to be the best thing I have ever made for him (it was for his b-day) and he likes my cooking in general anyway. His esteemed opinion was that it was completely fit for serving in fine restaurants and was the best cheesecake he had ever eaten - including the cheesecake that is touted hereabouts as the best to be had. That recipe had not only good taste, but it presented well and just looked really good when it was served. I won so many cooking points for that I can't begin to count them all. Of course, I'm sure it didn't make any difference that his two favorite deserts are turtle sundaes and cheesecakes. So combining them was bound to be a hit. Thank you so much for posting that recipe. I will cherish it always - least ways as long as I keep him around - which will hopefully be for always in some form or another. Bridget |

YAY! I'm glad it came out so good for you, I'm not usually known for my cooking skills (just ask my boss and coworkers! ;).

It's about the richest desert I know of in many senses of the word. The only thing better is my mom's (and daughter's - this skill seems to have skipped a generation) homemade candy - chocolate turtles, heavenly hash, rum balls - mmmmmmmmmmm! I'm going to get their recipes and post them here before Christmas - which is the only time they make them (if they made them all year long we'd have been dead years ago from over-indulgence!!). Hugs, CatNipped |
