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.

Thoughts On Pineapple Cheesecake:

I love cheesecake! Pineapple cheesecake is really good! I have a great memory of living in Honolulu, Hawaii when I was a small child. My dad was in the Army and we were stationed there. There are plenty of pineapple fields there. I remember one day we were allowed to get pineapple from the pineapple field. We took it home and cut it up for eating. The freshest pineapple in the world comes straight from the fields.

My Thoughts For Today:

Ooey Gooey Butter Cake

A co-worker had a birthday and our nice manager decided to make a cake for her. My manager found Paula Deen's Ooey Gooey Butter Cake recipe and made it for the first time. She served it in the breakroom and not only did this cake look great, but it also tasted wonderful. I hadn't had gooey buttercake since I was a teenager. Gooey butter cake was always at our family reunions and I never failed to get a piece.

My manager said she was worried how the recipe would turn out but we reassured her it was perfect. This cake did have a side effect. After eating it and returning to work I felt like I needed a nap. The nap didn't happen. The birthday celebration for my co-worker did turn out nice.
