ruYesterday was Eien and I's anniversary, and while we weren't able to go out, I did make a chocolate cheesecake for us. I think it might be the first time I've had an excuse to bake since the pandemic started (bread baking excluded) and it was GREAT. I've missed baking. I used to regularly make muffins for the students on my floor at work, but with reduced numbers of people it's probably not a good idea right now. With this cheesecake I managed to scratch an itch I didn't realize I had. I got to break out my baking chocolate stash and use my mixer and indulge in my favorite custom of licking the bowl while cleaning up.
Also the cheesecake turned out pretty darn good. I'm glad I tracked down a recipe for a smaller cheesecake so we're not stuck eating it for days (which is probably not a great idea for us, even if we might enjoy it). I'm thinking I might be able to use it to make smaller versions of other recipes.
