Halloween Cheesecake!
I decided to try something different....cheesecake! A Halloween Cheesecake that is! Here is the recipe! I made two batches of crusts (I wanted a thicker crust) and three batches of the filling. For the filling I colored two batches orange and one batch black with Wilton gel colors. Layer them according and let cheesecake freeze overnight. Then, you let the cheesecake thaw in the fridge for a few hours and flip over springform pan and release from pan. I put the cheesecake on a pretty cake platter. I have plans for my next cheesecake....I might mix up the colors and flavors! Enjoy and happy baking! :)
CRUST:
1 1/4 c. graham cracker crumbs
3 tbsp. sugar
1/3 c. butter, melted
Mix crust ingredients and press into bottom and sides of a 8 inch spring form pan
FILLING:
1 (8 oz.) pkg. softened cream cheese
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 c. lemon juice
1/2 c. sour cream
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 c. lemon juice
1/2 c. sour cream
In medium size bowl beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add condensed milk, stir in lemon juice and sour cream; blend ingredients well.

Candy Corn Cupcakes!
If you haven't tried out the candy corn cupcake-you should! It's so much fun! To do this, just mix up any kind of white cake you want and then put the cake batter into 2 different bowls. Then take your yellow and orange food coloring (I suggest Wilton gel colors) and color one bowl of batter yellow and the other bowl of batter orange. Then put one scoop of yellow into the bottom of the cupcake liner (I use the pampered chef medium sized cookie scoop for cupcakes and use 2 scoops for cupcakes-works great) and one more scoop of orange on top. Then, bake as you normally would. I like to use fair amount of food coloring so you can see the colors, but you can experiment to your liking. Of course you would swirl the top of the cupcake with white buttercream and add a candy corn on top! Such a fun thing to do with the kids around Halloween! Happy Baking everyone! :)
