Cheesecake Factory Restaurant Recipes For All Occasions

Just a few weeks ago, Mom asked me to suggest something for dessert. She was planning a dinner party - some out-of-town cousins were visiting. I said, "Cheesecakes!" Alright, I'm biased. I just love cheesecakes, especially those using Cheesecake Factory restaurant recipes. I vetoed the New York cheesecakes and sour cream cheesecakes, though. Not that I didn't like them, I do. But I can buy them so easily in cake shops and restaurants. When Mom makes cheesecakes, I want something not easily found in the local restaurants and shops - something using the Chicago or Pennsylvania Dutch recipes. Some of you will tell me that these easy to get. While that may be true where you live, this isn't the case in my neighborhood.

Daily

Mom says I'm way too fond of cheesecake, but so what? Is there some reason I need to wait for a holiday or special occasion to eat this dessert? If Mom or Sis bakes it, I'll eat it. If I feel like having cheesecake, I'll just go pick up a slice at the cake shop or restaurant. I don't see any problem!

I'll admit that when I first got my copy of the Cheesecake Factory cheesecake recipes, I may have gone a little overboard. In just one month, Mom baked one, Sis baked another, and I baked two. I don't boast to my drinking buddies about it, but baking cheesecakes is no big deal. The recipes are pretty clear and simple to follow. I wrecked my first one and the next few didn't look too good, but tasted just fine. Experience is always a good teacher.

Thanksgiving

This past Thanksgiving, I bought a couple of slices of swirled pumpkin and caramel cheesecake from my favorite cake shop. Mom also made pumpkin cheesecake. I didn't think she could find the space - her oven was supposed to be stuffed with turkey. But she said she used the no-bake recipe with pumpkin.

Desserts for Christmas

Mom put her foot down and insisted on fruitcakes for Christmas. Darn it, the chef at my favorite restaurant went on a long holiday to visit his family - I really missed my cheesecake. Fortunately, I had my own oven. I tried a new recipe - frozen peppermint cheesecakes from my Cheesecake Factory restaurant recipes. The peppermint jived well with the spirit of Christmas, and everything went off smoothly.

Birthday Celebrations

I surprised my niece with a Dutch/Belgian cheesecake for her birthday - flavored with melted bittersweet chocolate. She's a cute kid - she and her friends certainly enjoyed the cake. Luckily she had invited plenty of friends, though. Otherwise there would have been too much cake. In hindsight, I should have checked with her mum, my cousin. Things ended well, so no complaints here.

It's been a great year, and I'm glad I have my own Cheesecake Factory restaurant recipes. They are detailed enough that Mom and Sis can make most of the recipes. And anything I really like to eat, I can learn to cook on my own. This sure came in handy when my favorite restaurant shut down for a month.
