The Cheesecake Bible: Includes 200 Recipes

By Chocolate

I got this book b/c dd absolutely loves cheesecake. Looks like this book has every kind of cheesecake in here you can imagine, including the basic New York Cheesecake. I decided to try something different to start with, and tried the Carrot Cake Cheesecake. I even went out and bought myself a set of springform pans. The recipe called for a 9" springform pan which I couldn't find, so I used the bigger size that's an almost 10" pan. Glad I did cuz the recipe filled the WHOLE pan! It's delicious & had a perfect blend of crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, and chopped pecans in the carrot cake part. I don't even like pineapple & coconut (!), but I couldn't taste them in here and the texture is wonderful!! The recipe makes you think it's going to be different layers but I think I made a mess of it as I muddled through. Maybe it doesn't look fancy, but it is delish!! Looking forward to trying other recipes. A 10" cheesecake is quite large and will go a long way; something good for company.Buy The Cheesecake Bible: Includes 200 Recipes!
