In the Jewish religion there is a holiday called Shavuot. One of the customs or traditions associated with this holiday is eating dairy foods such as cheesecake. I'd like to share a few very simple cheesecake recipes with you.
This first recipe is a basic cheesecake:
Ingredients 16 ounces of cream cheese, softened 8 ounces of sour cream 1/2 cup sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla 8 ounces of Cool Whip 1 graham cracker crust (ready made)
Mix together the cream cheese, sour cream, sugar and vanilla. After it's mixed well, add in the Cool Whip. Pour into pie crusts and chill. If you like fruit on top, you can add cherry pie filling for a wonderful flavor.
We happen to love pumpkin in my house. We always look forward to winter as we know pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread will soon be in our kitchen. This is a simple pumpkin cheesecake recipe using canned pumpkin:
Ingredients 1 graham cracker crust (ready made) 1 egg yolk (to brush the pie crust) 16 ounces of cream cheese, softened 2 eggs 3 /4 cup sugar 1 can of pumpkin 1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon 1/2 teaspoon ginger
Brush the pie crust with the egg yolk. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Mix together the cream cheese, sugar and eggs. Your filling should be smooth and without lumps. We use an electric mixer to do this. Add in the pumpkin, cinnamon and ginger. Mix well. Pour pumpkin mixture into the pie crust and bake about 45 minutes. Middle should be set. Allow to cool and then refrigerate for several hours. Cut and serve.
We also love lemon. This is one of the simplest lemon cheesecake recipes I've ever seen:
Ingredients 1 graham cracker crust (ready made) 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 1 package instant lemon pudding 2 cups milk
Mix the cream cheese with 1/2 cup of the milk. Your mixture should be creamy. Add in the remaining milk and the pudding. Mix about one minute with an electric mixer. Pour into crust and refrigerate several hours.
And finally, what would Shavuot be without chocolate cheesecake?
Ingredients 1 graham cracker crust (ready made) 8 ounces cream cheese, softened 1 package instant chocolate pudding 1 1/2 cups milk 1/2 teaspoon vanilla Chocolate chips
In a blender, mix together the cream cheese, pudding, milk and vanilla. Pour filling into pie crust. Generously sprinkle chocolate chips on top of the pie. Chill several hours and serve.
Shavuot truly is known as the "cheesecake holiday." I hope you enjoy these easy to make recipes.

It's your child's birthday and you want to surprise him or her with that special treat - a really great tasting chocolate cake that is sure to be a hit with their friends. Try either of these 2 chocolate cake recipes for your kids' birthday.
Ingredients: 2 cups sugar (1 white, 1 dark brown) 1/2 cup butter (1 stick) 2 eggs 1/2 cup Hershey Cocoa 1 TBSP vanilla Pinch of salt 1 TBSP baking soda 1 cup buttermilk (or powdered buttermilk-follow directions on label to equal 1 cup buttermilk) 2 cups sifted flour (measure flour first prior to sifting it) 1/2 cup boiling water
Making the Chocolate Cake: Beat butter and sugar until creamy. Add eggs, vanilla, salt, and cocoa. Mix baking soda in buttermilk until it starts to fizz. Pour buttermilk into batter. Stop mixer and add flour.
Then mix until smooth, about 3 minutes. Add boiling water and mix again.
Pour batter into long cake pan 13 by 9 by 2. Bake at 375 degrees for 35 minutes. Test if it's done using a toothpick. If toothpick comes out clean, it's done. If it doesn't come out clean, leave in a few more minutes and retest.
Chocolate Cake Icing Ingredients: 1/2 box Powdered Sugar (1 lb. size) 1 stick butter 2 level TBSP Hershey's Cocoa 2 tsp vanilla 1.5 TBSP milk
How to Make the Icing: Place all ingredients into a mixer and beat. The longer you beat it, the creamier it gets. Cool cake first before frosting. For plain vanilla icing, use same recipe but omit cocoa.
Ingredients: 50g/2oz plain flour 60g/21/2oz ground almonds 225g/8oz good quality dark chocolate (at least 70 per cent cocoa solids), broken into pieces 225g/8oz butter 6 free-range eggs, separated 50g/2oz soft brown sugar Grated orange zest (optional) 175g/6oz caster sugar icing sugar, for dusting
1. Preheat the oven to 180C/350F
2. Grease and line the base and sides of a 20cm/8in loose-bottomed or clip-sided cake tin with greaseproof paper.
3. Sift the flour and almonds into a large bowl.
4. Place the chocolate pieces and butter into a heatproof bowl set over a pan of gently simmering water, making sure the water doesn't touch the base of the bowl. Heat while stirring from time to time, until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and allow cooling slightly.
5. Separate the eggs into two large bowls. Add the brown sugar to the bowl with the egg yolks and whisk together for a few minutes until frothy. Add the flour mixture, melted chocolate and grated orange zest, if using zest. Fold lightly to mix, using a large metal spoon.
6. Whisk the egg whites until soft peaks form when the whisk is removed. Gradually add the caster sugar and continue whisking until stiff peaks form when the whisk is removed.
7. Gently fold the egg white mixture into the chocolate mixture. Pour the mixture into the cake tin.
8. Bake in the oven for 45-50 minutes, or until crisp on top and squidgy inside. Test the cake with a cocktail stick or skewer - it should come out a bit sticky, but not wet. Allow to cool on a wire rack - the cake will sink but that's ok. Carefully peel the paper off when the cake's cold<
9. To serve, dust the cake with icing sugar and cut into slices.
