This week being a busy week of class, work, and social engagements I didn’t have the time to create anything sweet. So, this is a recipe I made a little while back and it was a hit with my fellow nurses. Not that pretty but delicious nonetheless.
This cheesecake has a Girl scout Thin Mint crust and a dark chocolate and peppermint filling. I am just glad I ordered a few boxes. Some cookies to bake and some to eat. (And some cookies to eat while I bake!) Enjoy!
