This is a blog of items I have baked, including recipes from the many cookbooks I own, my own created recipes, and recipes from other sources. I will write about what I have made and post a picture along with it! During stretches when I go without baking, I will write a brief article about some aspect of cooking, baking, ingredients, or preparation techniques.

Chocolate Coconut Cheesecake Squares
Chocolate Coconut Cheesecake Squares are rich, creamy, chocolatey squares on a coconutty shortbread base. I really liked the base because I love shortbread, and although I am not a huge coconut fan, the coconut in the base made the squares different and interesting. The chocolate cheesecake topping was dense and delicious. Any cheescake lover will devour these squares. They were fairly easy to make, and didn't take too long. One thing that surprised me about these squares was that the base did not have to be baked prior to adding the filling, which was a major convenience. The crust was firm, and although the cheescake was quite soft (it might be due to the heat) the squares cut very easily and stayed together very well. These squares really hit the spot and satisfy a hankering for sweets!
