Guest guest Posted October 12, 2007 Report Share Posted October 12, 2007 This sounds absolutely wonderful. I don't like chocolate or ice cream so I am not interested in most deserts, but this makes me drool just to think about. Last fall I had pumpkin cheese cake at a restaraunt and loved it. My dh did, too. He is a cheese cake fanatic, so I know he will be eating out of my hand, and probably licking my fingers, if I make this. Thank you at least twice!
