Tall and Creamy Cheesecake. So to kick off this holiday season, I was in search of the perfect cheesecake recipe.

Tall and Creamy Cheesecake

I’ve made a couple different varieties in the past but until now I’ve yet to come across a plain cheesecake with the “wow factor” that makes me want to make it my go-to cheesecake recipe. The issue for my finding an awesome cheesecake recipe has always been where to look. There are hundreds and hundreds of different cheesecake recipes out there – which one would I choose? I decided to not waste any time sifting through tons of recipes on the internet and I went straight for Dorie Greenspan’s Baking: From My Home to Yours. Treat your Valentine to homemade mini cheesecakes. Valentine’s Day is upon us, dearest Northwestern lovebirds. Maybe you managed to turn that Keg hookup into a steady relationship.

Maybe you have a cute chem TA you’d like to impress with non-creepily baked goods. Or most likely, you’re the average NU undergrad with no romantic prospects on the horizon but a good friend or two that deserves cheesecake on the 14th of the second month of the year. Whichever camp you’re in this heart-filled holiday, we hope you have someone in your life who appreciates mini cheesecakes as much as we do. This recipe is simple and cheap, and really quite adorable. Go ahead and make someone’s Valentine’s Day that much sweeter.

Those of you that know me, know that summer is not my favorite season. In fact, it's my least favorite of the four. If it could just be kind enough to arrive without the heat and humidity, I’d really enjoy it a whole helluva lot more. Punchfork — The best new recipes from top food sites. P.f.

Who could resist cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies? Not Me! Especially the double-stuffed Oreo cookie, it’s one of the best cookies for dunking into a cold glass of milk. I went out yesterday to do my weekly shop, came home, and before I was able to bring in the first grocery bag Matt was hunting for the cookies and cream ice cream. One of Matt’s favourite desserts of all time is cherry cheesecake and I thought to myself why not Oreo Cookies and Cream Cheesecakes, that should satisfy his craving. Plus these cheesecakes are super easy to prepare, everything comes together in one bowl and there’s no crushing chocolate wafers with a rolling pin, then melting butter, baking the crust first and then baking a second time when filled. Drop an Oreo cookie into each muffin tin, make filling, add chopped cookies, bake, and enjoy, how easy is that?

Cold-Brewed Iced Coffee. Update 4/2014: Be sure to check out my new, improved cold-brewed iced coffee tutorial with step-by-step instructions and lessons learned since first posting about cold-brewed iced coffee.

Cold-Brewed Iced Coffee

I started making my iced coffee this way a couple of years ago, thanks to this New York Times recipe that convinced me to do so. You add coffee grounds to cold water and let it sit at room temperature for several hours. Then you strain it through a coffee filter, and the result is a deep, rich, dark, and caffeine-packed glass of iced coffee.
