Candy Cane Cheesecake
Whether or not you believe the story, I think we can all agree that candy canes and Christmas are synonymous. I know I love the taste of anything peppermint this time of year, especially when you couple it with some chocolate.
When I decided I wanted to make a dessert inspired by the candy cane I passed on cookies, cake and brownies. I went for cheesecake because it’s one of my favorites. With its creamy texture and the variety of different tastes you can create, there’s no denying cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts. Coupled with the cool, winter taste of peppermint and you have a dessert that will certainly keep little children quiet while they gobble it all up.
I made my recipe in a pressure cooker but feel free to use the base recipe and cook the cheesecake any way you want. Check out the full recipe below!
