Oh, I forgot to post this, just in case you like cheesecake. Moon Pie (Chattanooga Bakery, Inc.) and a local restaurant collaborated to come up with this dessert menu item.
Blue Plate Diner’s Moon Pie Cheesecake
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup sugar
1 tablespoon gelatin
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 pounds cream cheese, softened at room temperature
4 regular Moon Pies, cut into 1/8-inch dice
2 (9-inch) graham cracker crust pie shells
Heat heavy cream, sugar, gelatin and vanilla extract until sugar dissolves; combine with cream cheese until smooth. Fold in Moon Pie pieces and turn into pie shells. Chill to set. Makes 2 cheesecakes. Note: These cheesecakes also may be made in 10-inch springform pans using a homemade graham cracker crust.
