I bake bread for my family every week. Home baking is not that hard, not that time consuming, and certainly cheap! You don't need a bread machine or a lot of fancy equipment. This blog features a tutorial on home bread baking, tips on equipment and ingredients, and recipes for real home cooking.
It's just too easy to make a cheesecake! One of the guys at work told me that oe can buy premade cheesecake filling. Why bother, when it is easy to make cheesecake from readily pronounceable ingredients?
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 1/2 cups sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 pound cream cheese, broken into small pieces
- Blend the cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and the 1/4 cup of melted butter, and line the bottom of a 9 inch ungreased springform pan.
- Blend the sour cream, 1/2 cup of the sugar, the eggs, and vanilla in a food blender for 1 minute. Add the cream cheese. Blend until smooth.
- Blend in the remaining 2 tablespoons of melted butter. Pour into springform pan.
- Bake in the lower third of a 325 degree oven for 45 minutes.
- when the baking is finished, remove the cake from the oven and turn on the broiler. Broil the cheesecake, watching carefully, until the top shows little spots of brown.
- Refrigerate at least four hours before cutting.
