Okay, not really. But I'm pretty close! Yesterday I baked a cheesecake and I just ate it...AMAZING! I should sell it to people. At the Cheesecake Factory. Because it's just that good. :) I'm proud. Mi madre liked it tambien (I'm practicing my Spanish. I've been out of school for two weeks and I don't want to get rusty).
Here, want a picture?

Okay, so maybe that's not exactly how mine turned out, but it was pretty dern close to this guy. At least it was in my world. Today I think I'm going to bake Toffee Bars. YUM! I have a ton of extra Graham Crackers left over from my cheesecake crust, and I need to do something with the little guys. Want a picture of how they will--or how they should--turn out? Okay. Cool.
They will look like this soon. And I will take a legitimate picture. I just ask that you don't judge. You know. In the instance that they turn out better than the picture I don't want a flooding of emails asking for my "secret touch" and whatnot. Here, I'll just include the recipe below. You're welcome, America. Eat and be happy! :) Be back soon!
Ingredients:
- 20 graham crackers (individual squares), regular or chocolate
- 1 1/2 sticks butter (6 ounces)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
Preparation:
Line a jelly roll pan (10x15-inch) with foil; arrange graham crackers in the pan in a single layer. Combine butter and sugar in a heavy medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Boil for 2 minutes; stir in vanilla and chopped pecans. Pour the hot mixture over crackers and spread evenly. Bake 10 minutes at 350°. Remove at once from pan to flat surface to cool. When cool, break into smaller pieces.
*Sorry. I never came back because I ended up eating all the graham crackers that were left over, so I had nothing to bake with other than the butter, sugar, vanilla, and pecans. I could be wrong, but those ingredients together do NOT sound appetizing.*
