Yep, it's another fun cake from Food Network Magazine! This month's issue had a "nacho cheesecake". How fun is that just in time for the playoffs?
Here's a LINK to the recipe. They put pictures of each step in the recipe so it's really easy to follow.
The cheesecake is a snap to make, just mix up the cream cheese, sugar, lemon, vanilla, eggs and a little food coloring, pour it into a pie pan and bake. After about 25 minutes, top with a mixture of sour cream and sugar and bake for another 5 minutes then let it cool completely.
Next is the fun part! The nacho chips are made from pie crust basted with butter and coated with sugar. Bake for about 7 minutes then cool.
The toppings are cut up Swedish Fish, black Dots, green licorice and chocolate covered raisins. Dave and I prefer espresso beans so that's what we used. Making the black olives was probably the most tricky just because those things are so darn sticky when they are cut up! I sliced the Dots into three slices then took the middle out of each one with a number 12 pastry tip. No, I haven't figured out how I'm going to clean that yet!
The Swedish fish are mixed with strawberry jam to look like salsa. I used a raspberry mango habanero jam. It is nachos!
Stick the "chips" in the cake and top with fixin's and voila you have nachos!
I love to cook. I love to bake. I love to eat. Here are some recipes I've tried and reviews for some of my favorite, and not-so-favorite foods and restaurants.
