Half a cheesecake in 24 hours? Semi light hearted

[mammynowanauntyIRL]

I made a cheesecake on Sat, shared it with a friend on Sunday, she had a slice and so did I, and she took a slice home, plated a sliver for dd, this left half a cheesecake (7" round, approx 2.5" depth)

I put remainder in fridge and suggested to au pair there was some cheesecake there if she would like some.

I have a headcold so couldn't taste said cheesecake yesterday, took ds to out of hours doctor after work last night, thought to myself while there, I feel a bit better now maybe I'll be able to taste cheesecake now. Got ds settled about an hour after coming home and went to fridge for cheesecake - it was all gone. Dd didn't eat her sliver so definitely didn't eat it, H has gout so off sweet things and ds didn't eat anything yesterday.

Is it a bit excessive to have consumed half a cheesecake in the course of one day?

I enjoy my food and have a sweet tooth but I exert some portion control and not eat it all the one day with the exception of Christmas Day perhaps.

AnneProtheroe that's brilliant

Lindt make orange flavoured chocolate??

I could easily eat half a cheesecake in half an hour, never mind a day!

I ate an entire cheesecake during an episode of poldark once.

Yep

That sounds amazing! Thanks. wanders off to make cheesecake forgetting the original point of the thread

I honestly think my cause of death is very likely to be attempting to eat an entire Nutella cheesecake.

Given the recipe I think she was more than reasonable to eat it all!

My god that sounds bloody divine!

I'm told it was bugjune

Did she think she could take it home? When I've made cheesecake recently (Orange and lemon with a dark chocolate ganache top), there was quite a bit left after having guests (shouldn't have used a 16 inch tin...) When our cleaner came I told her to help herself, she took a small very polite piece, so i offered her some Tupperware to take some home if she wanted. She took it home for dessert for her DH and DC . I'd much rather food is eaten than wasted, this may have been just crossed wires.
