mached mangoes with 1/2 the cheesecake batter and then marble it throughout the rest of the cheesecake batter. Yummy.

8. Hi billy! I'd NEVER leave the band out. Always plenty for them, too!
Besides, you've seen them. If I didn't share, they'd kick my ass! :)

Good thing I'm not hungry, or you'd be in trouble. :D

13. Now that I have a big new kitchen
I will be attempting my own cheesecake. I've already tried real fried chicken in a cast iron skillet, which turned out well.

I will also add homemade bread, too!

But don't say I didn't warn you about the liberal amounts of Bush/Cheny stickers. It will make you curse a blue streak all the way through the state! :rofl:

23. The problem is...
...it's probably too delish. Ya ever notice that the things that are really yummy have about a gazillion calories?

25. Barry's Law.
As in humorist Dave Barry, who stated in one of his books that the calorie is a unit of taste - which is why chocolate fudge brownies (and cheesecake, and other yummy things) have tons of calories, and celery (which, according to him, was invented as a way to get dip into man's mouth at parties) has none. :shrugs: Works for me.

29. I think celery...
...is the only food that you actually burn more calories eating than you take in.

32. That looks so good...
...no, "good" is not a sufficient word to describe how delicious that looks...so I shall be forced to make one up (or rip one off of an SNL sketch, either way).

SCRUMTRULESCENT.

That cheesecake looks...scrumtrulescent. :9 I really want some now! :D

26. I'm a purist when it comes to cheesecake.
original for me.

I'll usually eat the gooyest, most bounty-filled ice cream available. But with cheesecake and potato chips - gotta be he original flavor.

28. Original is my favorite too, garnished with either strawberries or
some raspberry sauce.

37. Not a fan of malt, but for those who are, I bet it would be really tasty.

38. Maida Heatter's Book of Great Chocolate Desserts has an AWESOME recipe for chocolate cheesecake -
VERY highly recommended!!

Once I made it substituting mint chocolate chips for most of the semisweet chocolate chips - it was amazing. But mint chocolate chips have become impossible to find around here. :-(

I'm thinking of trying it using chocolate oranges to make a chocolate-orange cheesecake -- drool! (or using those chocolate oranges to make homemade ice cream that would be like Swensen's Swiss Orange Chip ice cream - haven't had that stuff in years, but it was incredible!)

39. Merv Griffin had a chocolate cheesecake named after him
There's a place called "Incredible Cheesecake Company" on Adams Avenue here in San Diego. They have about 50 flavors of cheescake and a whole one is about $36. One of the flavors is chocolate cheesecake with chocolate chips throughout it and on top of it. Someone bought one and brought it to a party where Merv Griffin was at, and Merv became a fan of it. He started ordering it himself from Incredible Cheescake, so they named it after him.

42. Excellent, but...
I once took some Trader Joe's Key Lime Cheesecake and used it as "icing" on a batch of double fudge brownies.

Words cannot describe how well that worked.

44. OK, now I'm drooling!
I don't have a Trader Joe's nearby, but I think I can make it work. I have guests coming for Labor Day weekend, brownies (Ghiradelli triple chocolate) with key lime icing will be the summer-ending dessert!
