Recipe Thursday - Chocolate Mint Cheesecake


I wanted to share with you the birthday cake that my son made for me last week.  What a great kid.  His favourite item to bake is cheesecake.  Usually it's an Oreo one, but I found him a new recipe.  It's from the I Love Chocolate by Mars website. 

 June 22, 2010 recipe for Chocolate Cheesecake.  you might have to sign up for an account for the link to work.  Note, the picture shown with the recipe is not for these instructions.  The picture above is correct.  I couldn't bring myself to buy a full bottle of creme de menthe, so I bought a bottle of non-alcoholic mix and it worked just fine.  I did buy the bottle of white creme de cacoa as it works well in the recipe for "Chocolate Martini" that I posted a few weeks ago.

Oh, this looks absolutely gorgeous! Can´t you send me a slice? - I love green cakes (well, this shade of green, I mean).

Chocolate, mint, cheesecake, and someone else made it for you -- that's what I call heaven!

Yum Yum Yummy!!!

My son and I both would love this. My husband would too probably. I'd have to buy the non alcoholic mix too!

Might just try this!
