Cheesecake and Chocolate

Most of us would easily succumb to the alluring cheesecake any day. It’s just too yummy to say no to.

These rich cakes make for a perfect desert any day. The basic ingredients are eggs and cream cheese, which makes it different from other types of cakes that have flour as the main ingredient. It leans towards custards more. The cheesecake boasts of the flavor that bursts into the mouth as it melts. So heavenly. The golden rule to make a superb cheesecake is to allow the flavor set by keeping it in the fridge overnight.

The various types of cheesecake came from the countries they originated from. Such countries makes use of their own special cheese to come up with a unique taste. Flavorings such as chocolate or vanilla are new flavors added to the cheesecakes. Some may even toss in liquor to the cake batter just to give it a kick. Garnished with strawberries or blueberries, you can never go wrong. The main feature of it is the crust, which is composed of biscuits. The go-to choice would be Graham crackers. You crush them and put them at the base of the pan. Some cheesecakes must be baked, but depending on the kind of taste you wish to have, some just have to be refrigerated.

Due to our love of chocolate; it made its way into this yummy treat making it even more scrumptious. The mix of these two awesome foods is too stunning and the pleasure of eating it amplifies. Chocolate cheesecake is just alluring and with a single bite, you’ll be hooked for life.

A tempting cheesecake could totally bring a satisfied smile to one’s worried and stressful day. Eat it with your morning coffee or dessert, cheesecake is the best example of a simple but head-tilting good comfort food.

Q&A: How do I make “mini cakes” in a microwave?

Question by : How do I make “mini cakes” in a microwave?
Well, I’m in a great mood to make some desserts today! 🙂

I wanted to make some ‘mini cakes’ (Like one of those cakes in the Easy Bake products)
I have one of those Easy Bake trays, but I don’t wanna use the oven it came with because the light bulb died, and I don’t have another one… So, yeah XD

But I do have some Chocolat Betty Crocker cake mix in the house! As well as white chocolate and Nutella… 🙂

Can you guys/gals help me with an recipe on what to make with these items that I currently have?

Mini Peanut Butter Crunch Ice Cream Cakes:

Blogger Cheri Liefeld of Adventures in the Kitchen shares a favorite recipe. The classic combination of peanut butter and chocolate makes these mini ice cream cakes taste like a frozen candy bar.

Ingredients:

1 Betty Crocker® fudge brownie mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on brownie mix box
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips (6 oz)
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup crisp rice cereal
1 pint (2 cups) peanut butter cup ice cream, softened
1 jar hot fudge topping
2 chocolate-covered peanut butter cup candies, unwrapped, cut crosswise in half

Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350?F. Spray 2 (8-inch) round cake pans with cooking spray; line with cooking parchment paper. Make brownies as directed on box, using water oil and eggs. Divide batter evenly between pans.

2. Bake 15 to 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted 2 inches from side of pan comes out almost clean. Cool completely in pans on cooling racks. Use parchment paper to lift out of pan. With 2 1/4-inch round cookie cutter, cut out 6 rounds from each brownie. Place 8 of the rounds on cookie sheet; set remaining 4 rounds aside.

3. In 2-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips and peanut butter until melted. Remove from heat; stir in cereal until coated. Spread thin layer of cereal mixture over 8 brownie rounds on cookie sheet. Freeze 15 minutes.

4. Remove brownies from freezer. Top each with small scoop of ice cream; stack 1 brownie round on top of another. Top each stack with 1 plain brownie round; press gently. (Clean up sides of cakes with knife, if necessary.) Top with dollop of hot fudge topping. Garnish with candy half.

Tips:
Do-Ahead
Make the brownies a day ahead and then assemble with the ice cream, hot fudge topping and peanut butter cup candies just before serving.

Substitution
Use a chocolate cake mix instead of brownie mix.
