My husband is a huge fan of cheesecake and creamsicles, so this couldn't get any better for him. I made it for christmas Day and it was a hit. I made three and had none left over. Will definitely make this again!
This is my most requested dessert when I bake for family holidays. The only thing I do different is to add 1 or two teaspoons of freshly grated orange zest to the batter. Really gives a fresh, orange zing!
