Oatmeal Cookie Cheesecake

 Y'all I have found the most delicious cheesecake. And it was absolutely so incredibly easy. I found it at this website:

Here's what mine looked like:

Mine is a little different than the recipe online - she used frosting to put on top of the cheesecake, and I used the far superior whipped cream mmmm, It was so so good, I can't stress enough how delicious this was! 

Blueberry Cheesecake Cookies

Last night, I made some cookies. Now, don’t anyone get excited, because these were awful. I got these off Pinterest, and I had read in the comments on the website that they turned out flat, so I did what they told me to fix it. I added things, refrigerated longer, etc, and these came out as flat as a pancake, and tastes just like a pancake. Or muffin. Does everyone know what Jiffy blueberry mix taste like? Because this just tastes like a dang muffin that I’ve made and tried to pass off as cookies. Le recipe:

Blueberry Cheesecake Cookies
2 boxes Jiffy Blueberry Muffin mix
4 oz. cream cheese
1 stick “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter”
½ C. light brown sugar, firmly packed
2 eggs
1 ½ C. white chocolate chips

Cream together butter, cream cheese, and brown sugar. Add eggs one at a time until blended. Combine muffin mix with the butter mixture and mix well. Fold in white chocolate chips. Chill for at least one hour.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
Drop by tablespoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet, 2 inches apart. Bake for 14-15 minutes or until just turning brown around the edges. Cool on cookie sheet for 1-2 minutes. Transfer to wire rack until completely cooled.

These came out flatty flat flat flat. So basically, don’t make this. I don’t even know why I included this recipe, because I don’t think these are even any good. Here’s what they look like:

Weird, right? And they were textured like muffins and tasted like them, so pretty much, just make muffins to enjoy these cookies. Pinterest fail.

Mini Cheesecakes

It’s almost Christmastime! Are you ready, readers? I hope so. We had our department Christmas lunch today, Taco Salad. Delicious! My assignment was to bring a dessert, so I chose mini cheesecakes. These were the easiest thing in the world, so I wanted to share the recipe. Here’s what they looked like right after I mixed the ingredients and put them in the fridge:

Looking good, right? I thought so too. *wink* So then I left them in the fridge overnight, and in the morning, I covered them with cherry pie filling. I would have liked to use raspberry too, but there was not a single can of raspberry pie filling to be found. My only options in the store were cherry, apple, and mixed berry, so I went with cherry. These are them with cherries:

Yum! So for those of you who’d like the recipe, here it is:

No-Bake Mini-Cheesecakes

1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup sugar

1 tub (8 oz) Cool Whip whipped topping

12 Nilla Wafers or 12 Oreos

1 can pie filling (your choice)

Beat cream cheese and sugar until well blended. Gently stir in whipped topping. Place muffin cups into pan, place wafer or Oreo in bottom. Spoon cream cheese mixture into muffin cups until full. Refrigerate for 1 hour. Spoon pie filling onto each cupcake. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

 

These are really good, but they lose their shape, so the muffin cups look a little crazy. Still good though!
