Peanut Butter Cup Chessecake
About this Cook
I am just a girl who loves to cook and bake. When I have free time or am bored I look up recipes to cook later. My roommates love me since they always get to eat/try my new concoctions.
My favorite things to cook
I love to bake for people, especially cheesecakes. I bake many different cookies, cakes, pies, breads, coffeecakes, and cheesecakes. I am a pretty busy person so I love to learn new recipes that are good, healthy and quick. I have been trying to grill more often and when I do grill it is usually salmon or steak, vegetables and fruits. I love to also make different pasta recipes.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love quite a lot of my mom's recipes. When ever I get home she always asks me what I want her to make. I have tried to duplicate a few of them, but they are just never done quite right without mom's touch.
My cooking triumphs
The white chocolate raspberry cheesecake was my first cheesecake that I tried to make. It turned out pretty amazing and ever since then I have been hooked on making many different cheesecakes.

Incredibly Cheesy Turkey Meatloaf
I followed mostly. I used shreaded cheese instead of cubed. I also added some brown sugar to the ketchup topping. It does make it a tad sweeter, but with the turkey I dont know if it really needs that sweetness.

Creamy Potato Leek Soup II
I used skim milk instead of the heavy cream to make it healthier and then used a little cornstarch and water mixture to make it thicker. Overall though it is a very tasty recipe. I wish that I added more salt and pepper. I really didn't add any during cooking and waited for individuals to add their own.

Broccoli Chicken Divan
Great right out of the oven, not so great as leftovers...the bread crumb mixture gets mushy and I like it crisper
