Chocolate Cheesecake.

For Valentines Day, we got a pizza. On Friday, Denny was in the clinic until 7:30. The kids usually go to bed at 7:00, so I made a really nice dinner of ham and potatoes and spinach salad and Denny and I had dinner alone and had more of your traditional Valentines dinner. Well, for dessert I made Chocolate Cheesecake. It was very rich, but really fun to make for Valentines day. We enjoyed some and then took some to friends because there was no way we would be able to finish it. We saved a couple of pieces to have later.

I pulled it out a couple of days later and had it on the counter. Denny and I were having little bites here and there, but when the kids discovered what we were doing, they dragged their little chairs over to the counter and grabbed their forks and were ready to dig in. I went into the other room and then I heard Dallin and Kenna laughing. I walked into the kitchen to discover this. Denny figured he couldn't fight them on this, so he gave in. Just to clarify, my kids usually don't have free access to any kind of sugar, let alone a whole cheesecake, but it was really cute. In the above pictures you can just hear them thinking, "Can you believe they are actually letting us do this?? How cool is this?"
