I made this!

It looks like our gaming night has been cancelled tomorrow (due to work - boo! hiss!) so I'm stuck with a whole cheesecake. As you can see from the photo, I tasted a piece - you know I have to check the quality! - and just when I was finishing it, Dragon came home. He couldn't get anything sensible out of me for a while as I was giggling in a huge sugar high.

Just to make sure that you understand the greatness of this cake: the base is made with (normal) graham crackers, but as an added bonus I put in some chopped and toasted pecan nuts and orange zest. The filling is made with dolce de leche (fudge I made with milk and sugar) and cream cheese, baked in the oven and chilled for 24 hours.

It. Is. Absolutely. Gorgeous.

If I´m there within 15 hours, can I have it? All of it? Right away? Seriously drooling here, with a slow yet successfull diet I should add...three down, 2-6 to go.

I loved it. I took half of it to work, and report on reactions to follow.

The cheesecake won universal acclaim from the overworked staff of the next hit game from the world's largerst games company.
