Holiday Dessert Options: Easy Peanut Butter Cheesecake #KraftRecipes

Easy Peanut Butter Cheesecake blog

Every year I rack my brains thinking of different Thanksgiving recipes to include in our feast.  Some things, such as our Pepperoni Stuffing, never change and will always be on the menu but it is hard to find easy pie recipes and delicious cheesecake options.  This year I decided to start testing in the kitchen early.  Since its National Peanut Butter Month I thought it was only fitting to do an Easy Peanut Butter Cheesecake using the base recipe from Kraft.

Spread the Cheesecake Cheer with PHILADELPHIA Cream Cheese!

Entertaining Tip:

We do a large spread for Thanksgiving and sometimes we have to be creative and think outside the box.  With so much food it is nearly impossible to keep everything in the oven or in the fridge, but it is important to keep foods at the right temperature.  One creative tip that we started implementing is heating and freezing small stones (or polished pebbles found at your local home improvement store).  If we are serving a cold dessert we freeze pebbles, put them on a plate, and then put another plate on top with our desserts.  We do the same with our hot hors d’oeuvres but we heat the pebbles in the oven.  It looks great with the different color pebbles/stones and it works great too!

    I think I might try this one for the peanut butter lovers.

  2. I’m going to have to try this recipe. I love Cheesecake (all kinds), however, I’ve never come across Peanut Butter. It looks delicious. Thanks for the recipe.
