For two years I’ve been drooling over this Cheesecake. I decided it was high time I actually make it! So I did! It’s every bit as good as it looks. If you love cheesecake as much as I love cheesecake…you need to make this masterpiece! I think my husband may have made himself sick on this cheesecake he ate so much of it. (That my friends is an endorsement you can take to the bank!) Oh…and don’t let the Amaretto scare you off! Remember you can always “bring a cup of it to a boil to bake off the alcohol, if you don’t drink, and all you’re left with is the warm rich flavors of Amaretto. I do this all the time and leave a container of it in my spice cupboard for baking.
Holiday Dishes
It’s almost time for my favorite foodie Holiday! No… It’s not Thanksgiving. It’s Cinco de Mayo! I love a holiday that allows me to have all the melted cheese and guacamole I want. Then there’s those chips and fresh salsa… and let’s not forget the Fried Ice Cream Cake! I have compiled all our favorites into one post with links to every single recipe. Let’s Fiesta!
The original Best Cheesy “Funeral” Potatoes recipe, made with southern hash browns, whipped cream cheese with chives to create a creamy cheese sauce, and loaded with lots of extra cheese on top for a truly easy and delicious potato casserole.
I love all the wonderful fresh fruits and veggies this time of year has to offer. To celebrate I created this delectable Lemon Berry Angel Food Cake!

I’m busy planning my Easter menu! I am a true believe that side dishes are as equally as important, if not more so, than the main dish. I live by the motto that the side dishes can be a “meal breaker”. (No pressure right?) Never fear!

It has a light, fluffy cheese topper that will remind you of a vegetable souffle!
