I was wondering if anyone had any crazy/fun ingredients that they like to put into their cheesecakes?

Bailey's liquer in a cheesecake chocoholic?

is it any good?

Has anyone heard of the Cheesecake contest that Philadelphia Cream Cheese is having? I went and make a strawberry cheesecake with caramel toppings and a Oreo crust....I'm getting hungry just thinking about it, and it has a prize of $10,000 if you enter and win the recipe contest.

heres the link if anyone wants to check it out

Well, I like cheesecake and I love Baileys and the two of them make a wonderful combination.

Haven't made this recipe, my boss made Bailey's cheesecake and used to bring it into the office as a treat but I don't know which recipe he used but, hey, it's worth a try:) - If you make it, let me know how it turns out:D

omg i just remembered how coconut can be so delicious! thanks love light!

so i searched for a simple dessert recipe with coconut in it and i found the Fluffy 2-Step Cheesecake Minis from creamcheese.com

12 nilla wafers

1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup sugar

1 tub (8 oz.) cool whip whipped topping, thawed, divided

1/4 cup baker's angel flake coconut, toasted

PLACE 1 wafer on bottom of each of 12 paper-lined medium muffin cups; set aside. Beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with wire whisk or electric mixer until well blended. Add 2-1/4 cups of the whipped topping; mix well. Spoon evenly into muffin cups.

REFRIGERATE 3 hours or overnight. Spread tops with remaining whipped topping. Sprinkle with coconut just before serving.

mmmm....

I'd never imagine putting curry into cheesecake!?!?! :-2

I prefer just your standard cheesecake, because it's too die for if made just right!! :-4
