Cherry Cheesecake

I made this Cherry Cheesecake for my mother in-law's birthday.  It had some little flaws while I was baking it.  It turned out that my cheesecake pan was smaller for the required ingredients.  The filling overflowed while baking. So I just took out the hanging crust on the sides of the pan,  lol.  I went to Walmart and saw these red beautiful sugar rose decors and the pearls.  I bought it and decorated the edges of the cake,  so it would not be so obvious that the edges of the crust were gone,  lol.  The taste of the cake turned out pretty good and was not affected by the little flaw.

So I am still learning all the time,  lol.  I do not bake cheesecake always,  so every time I bake it,  it seems like I am doing it for the first time all over again.  I should bake it from time to time so I can get the techniques embedded in my memory, lol.

Anyway,  until next baking! :)

Chocolate Cheesecake with Mixed Berries on Top

As I've promised here are the photos of
my Chocolate Cheesecake that I baked yesterday. These are just a couple of photos of a single slice of cheesecake. Too bad I forgot to take a picture of the whole cheesecake because we were in a hurry this morning to leave for town and bring the cheesecake to my mom in-laws workplace to surprise her and congratulate her for her new job. So I already sliced it when I realized I didn't get to take a picture of the whole cheesecake. Anyway, maybe next time I bake one I'll make sure to get a photo of the whole cake:)

Anyway, here are the pictures of my yummy chocolate cheesecake. For the record,lol, my mom in-law and her co-workers liked my cheesecake. One of the gals even asked for the recipe. I am glad they liked it. :-)
