EMERGENCY CHEESECAKE RECIPE IDEAS...when company just drops in un-announced



Because you can never be too prepared for Company here's a quick dessert idea, when you are caught out, or when the midnight munchies are REALLY kicking in.


1 graham cracker crust 
(1/2 pound any plain cookie smashed in a plastic bag, then the crumbs are mixed with 3-4 tbsp melted butter and 2tbsp sugar, press this into a 7inch diameter pie dish and bake in preheated 350F oven for 8 mins, remove and cool)



The add any fresh or canned fruit, even fruit pie filling is great.( Try this with chocolate pudding too).

Whip 8ozs cream cheese* with 1 cup whipping cream and add any extract you like (lemon juice works well as does almond or vanilla extract).
Pipe or just spoon this whipped cream cheese over the top and serve, or if you have time, allow to set up in a fridge for a couple of hours then slice.
This is great also with a layer of peanut butter under the fruit (especially bananas) and or made with chocolate cookie crumbs instead of plain.

* If you don't have cream cheese use plain  or fruited yogurt and fold this into the already whipped cream.


Variation you can add the cream cheese first and top with fruit and then top with a little more of the cream mix.
