Mocha Cheesecake Delight Recipe

Quote For The Day:

“If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.” -J.R.R. Tolkien

Food For Thought:

Pulled-pork barbecue sandwich!

Yesterday I stopped by one of my favorite barbecue food trucks. They are located in Marshfield, Missouri. If you are a local, you probably know about this food truck. If you are traveling through and they happen to be open, you will love their food. They have great sauce but you will not need it. The smoked meat is so delicious and tasty you will want to savor every bite.

I had onion and pickles on my sandwich. The onion breath is worth it! They are such good hardworking people and I love to support them. It is so inspiring to see people start a business that serves the community. The entrepreneurial spirit is alive in people. I believe it is good to support local small businesses. They are so important to our community and give people more choices. 

The big-box store was hosting a local car show and made the barbecue truck set up on the side of the parking lot instead of in front of the entrance. This made the food truck traffic slower than normal. Shame on you big-box store! Maybe I shouldn't be so negative about it but these are great people with a great food product. Why place them aside where traffic is slower? I don't get it.

My Thoughts On Mocha Cheesecake Delight:

Many cheesecakes are baked but this cheesecake is placed in the freezer for 6 hours to set. It's cold, full of chocolate, and coffee. It will give you a great sugar kick you'll want more of. Chocolate cookie crumbs, raspberries, and mint are used for this recipe but you can use chocolate shavings and cherries if you like that better. You can also use chocolate syrup to drizzle on top. Have a cup of hot Mocha coffee with this cheesecake to really kick it up a notch.

Instructions:

Combine the cookie crumbs, sugar, and butter in a small bowl. Press the combination into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill in the refrigerator. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it is fluffy. Add the condensed milk and chocolate syrup to the cream cheese. Dissolve the instant coffee in the hot water and stir it into the cream cheese mixture. Fold in the whipped cream. Pour the mixture into the springform pan, cover, and freeze for at least 6 hours or overnight. Garnish your Mocha cheesecake with the additional cookie crumbs.
