Whoa! Has it really been almost a year since my last post? Maybe I should just shut this blog down. I still cook and bake but I'm posting more on Instagram now. My handle there is @foxyknitter.
In any case, I won another ribbon in this year's South Side Pie Challenge.
This time I won second place in the pumpkin/sweet potato category for my pumpkin-cheesecake swirl pie with a gingersnap crust. This is actually a picture of my test pie.
It was a total experiment on my part but it turned out really well. I took a recipe for plain cheesecake and one for pumpkin pie and combined them. I'll definitely make this recipe again. It has a great texture and isn't nearly as dense as a traditional pumpkin pie. In fact, I plan to host my holiday potluck again this year, and I'll probably make this pie to serve so that friends who couldn't attend the pie challenge can have a chance to taste it.
