What are twinkies? Heard them mentioned in films but never knew what they were.

Alfie, hope the cats better! (bless him!)

I've just been for a visit to another school that I've applied for a job for and hubby was waiting outside. When I came out he started reversing and forgot there was a bollard behind car! (even though he has a reverse alarm). There was a loud bang and we expected a big dent in the back....not a mark on it! :eek: that was lucky!

Sheils, bet you're glad to get away from all this rain! I bet it will be glorious in Menorca

Hi indie and welcome :wave:

Just noticed that you can get the white choc oreos on Amazon:

Bit more expensive than we were paying as we were getting 2 packs for about £3 as they were on offer at the local supermarket.

Just been having a nosey on that American Soda website - OMG that site will do neither my diet nor my purse any good :rotfl:

Me neither!

I do love the American Soda website. I put stuff in my basket and then keep it there until I can afford to buy it.

Can you see why DH likes them so much? :rotfl:

So many TV Shows and Films advertise them (Zombieland being a big one lol) and we didn't know what they were until we went to Florida and DH wanted to try them. He fell in love with them!

Have you see America's variety of Pop Tarts? Oh my goodness! So many types! Here we just get Strawberry or Chocolate!

DH won't let me have them. He says they're too unhealthy but I say we should compromise and I should have them as a treat.

OMG, Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake!!!



Reese's PB Cup Chocolate Cheesecake Recipe with Oreo Cookie Crust

• 14 whole Oreo cookies or similar chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed fine, or
• 36 chocolate cookies after you've licked out the cream middles!
• 1/4 cup melted butter
• Remove the bottom of a 9- inch springform pan, then line the bottom plate with aluminum foil. Reassemble the pan. Pull the excess foil up and around the pan to prevent any batter from leaking into the oven. Spray sides and bottom with vegetable spray.
• Mix Oreo Cookie Crust ingredients together and pat on the bottom only of the prepared pan.

Chocolate Cheesecake Filling

• 2 pounds (four - 8 ounce packages) Philly Brand cream cheese, room temperature
• 1 can (14 ounces) Eagle brand sweetened condensed milk
• 4 large eggs, room temperature
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 1/4 cup semi sweet gourmet chocolate chips, melted (see above)
• 8 large Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped in good size pieces
• Optional Chocolate Ganache Icing

How to Make a Reese's PB Cheesecake

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. (This cheesecake needs a lower oven temperature than most cheesecake recipes.)
• Place a pan of hot water in the bottom of the oven and close the door.
• In a mixing bowl on medium speed, beat cream cheese until smooth ~ about 2-3 minutes. Scrape down sides half way through. Add sweetened condensed milk and beat again, scraping a few times. The mixture should be smooth. Add eggs 1 at a time beating after each addition until creamy. Add vanilla and blend. With the mixer on low, add melted chocolate in a steady stream and beat only enough so there are no lumps and the filling is nice and fluffy. Scrape as needed.
• Gently fold in all but 1/2 cup of chopped peanut butter cups.
• Pour batter into prepared pan on top of the Oreo cookie crust. Sprinkle the remaining peanut butter cups over the top of the cheesecake, and bake at 300 degrees for 60-70 minutes. The center of the cheesecake will still be a little wiggly when it comes out of the oven. The cheesecake will set up as it cools and chills. Remove from oven and let cool completely before removing the sides of the pan.
• VERY IMPORTANT! See the important link, How To Make Perfect Cheesecake for further baking, cooling, serving and freezing instructions.
• When fully chilled, remove from pan and drizzle with the optional dark chocolate ganache icing.
• Makes one 9 inch Chocolate Cheesecake. Serves 14. Wrap and refrigerate any leftovers
