Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.

This is scrumptious and super easy. I loved the crust with the hint of cinnamon. It's a very good cheesecake that I highly recommend.

i made it for my father's christmas gift with no intention of eating any of it, as i don't usually like chocolate stuff but this is really good.

I have made this twice for large family dinners. It was a huge hit. I would recommend this!

I love chocolate cheesecake, and I'm definitely not considered a good baker by ANYONE. It's the best cheesecake I've ever had, and I can believe I made it myself. It's the bomb!
