The holiday season is all about baking & boy have we got a recipe you’re going to need to make ASAP. Wow your friends & family with our indulgent Cake Batter Cheesecake that couldn’t be easier to make! We skipped the frosting this time around & opted to top our cake with cheesecake, a choice that left us wondering why we haven’t done so before. Not to mention, this cheesecake recipe is almost, if not, easier to make than homemade frosting. With just four ingredients, feel free to make this cheesecake in a standard pie crust, on it’s own, or in any other variety you’d like. However, as previously mentioned, if you’re looking to “wow” a crowd, we suggest following the simple recipe below.
Along with the deliciousness of holiday baking comes the inevitable guilt of eating it all… We recently discovered Miss Jones Baking Co. & have been using their products non-stop as they’re super simple to make (boxed cake mixes, cans of frosting, etc.) yet they’re all organic! If you’re looking for a better for you alternative, we suggest trying some of their products. We even skipped the powdered sugar in a typical cheesecake recipe & instead used their Organic Vanilla Cake Mix powder to give the cheesecake a cake batter flavor. We can’t wait to share this creation at upcoming holiday gatherings! Plus, swap out the clear sugar sprinkles for rainbow non-pareils to turn this beauty into a birthday or everyday celebratory cake!
