No Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake
Once I started getting to cooking & baking and was a teen, I did not know the purpose of desserts. Or putting in a little work?
Fast forward a couple of years (I am using the word loosely here) -- and now that I have a couple more things to do on my weekends compared to lounging on the sofa watching reruns on TLC.
So shocker -- I adore and know recipes. Because sometimes you do not have an hour to sit home and await your cheesecake. And occasionally you've got a couple more things in life to worry about than your cheesecake's water tub....
