We live a couple miles from a Cheesecake Factory restaurant and it is a DANGEROUS place to go into - now I have one of their cheesecake recipes? This is too good for words...all their cheesecakes are to die for, but this one is especially good (and the dutch apple - yow!)..thanks, wynne (I think)

Hey, aren't you concerned about my cholesterol levels ??? ( Grin! ) Sigh... butter, sour cream, cheese, chocolate..... Combined, they could be somewhat evil, perhaps? Hmmmm, evil spelled backwards is "live", so I will be "living high" on cheesecake very soon - maybe even this "weak"end..... '-)

Blessings for this wonderful recipe,

BQ

It's Valentine's day, and I'm now baking.... Sheesh, Wynne !!! Not only are the raw ingredients tasty ( yeah, my Mom thinks I'll get worms ) but the odors wafting from the oven are telling me I've made a great choice for dessert !!! When prepping the cake portion, be sure and remove all small children from the room - not enough beaters to lick '-)

Only problem, I must now go buy Filet Mignon, asparagus and artichoke hearts for the salad - gotta keep up appearances ya know..... sigh....

Blessings this beautiful day, you've got my five !
