Apple Crisp Cheesecake
As much as I enjoy cooking, I am not much of a baker at ALL!! So I am very fortunate to have some extremely talented friends that I can lean on for decadent desserts for those special events I love to host. My girlfriend Amanda has to be one of the most talented bakers out there, she use to work at the Redcliff Bakery and any type of cheesecake are her specialties. This week she came over and we took on a new favourite for everyone who tried it!!! This is the best of both worlds, it’s like an Apple pie with the perfect amount of cheese to compliment it. Of course she also brought over a yummy treat to eat while we baked, chocolate cover strawberries and lil’vino.
