A little rough this morning, but I still managed to cut Randy’s hair, top and rinse all the strawberries and put them in a jar because they last so much longer that way, made carmel out of sweetened condensed milk and made real whipped cream, and put it together in a Butter Brickle Carmel Pecan Cheesecake. This stuff is so good it will nearly bring a man to tears. Highly recommend.
Ingredients:
1 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
⅓ cup butter, melted
¼ cup white sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup quick cooking oats
¼ cup brown sugar
½ cup butter, melted
¾ cup chopped pecans
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (12 ounce) jar caramel topping
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/3 cup melted butter, and white sugar in a medium bowl until well mixed. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
Bake in the preheated oven until set, about 6 minutes. Cool completely.
Raise the oven temperature to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Combine flour, oats, brown sugar, 1/2 cup melted butter, and pecans in a large bowl until well mixed. Lightly pat onto a baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven until light brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Crumble while still hot. Cool completely.
Beat cream cheese in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Beat in condensed milk until well blended. Fold in whipped topping.
Spread 1/2 of the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan. Sprinkle 1/2 of the oat crumbles over the cream cheese mixture, and spread 1/2 of the caramel sauce over that. Repeat layers. Freeze until firm, at least 4 hours. Remove pan sides and serve cold.
Afif outdid himself tonight. He made some incredibly seasoned, perfectly cooked rare beef, smothered in bernaise sauce…it was orgasmic. I think I sprained my eyeballs whwn they rolled back in my head. His two friends that had dibber with us were hilarious abd my face hurts from laughing. Once again, Boone spent the evening being admired. They were all fascinated that he could open the back door and let himself out
It was a wonderful night
