Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 3/4 cup white sugar, separated
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or rum)
2 (8 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent rolls
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
honey

Beat the cream cheese with 1 cup of sugar and the vanilla extract (or rum) in a bowl until smooth.
Unroll the cans of crescent roll dough
Use a rolling pin to shape two 9x13 inch rectangles.
Press one rectangle into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture into the baking dish, then cover with the remaining rectangle.
Stir together 3/4 cup of sugar, cinnamon, and butter.
Dot the mixture over the top of the cheesecake.
Bakeat 350° til the crescent dough has puffed and turned golden brown, about 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and drizzle with honey.
Cool completely in the pan before serving.

Rum is my idea.

I'm not sure what this thread is about? Or what we're supposed to discuss?

I'm in California, so I suppose I should say something about persimmon bread.

I also note that nowhere on the map do people appear to be discussing corn dogs with mustard smiley faces, so the entire thread may be off limits to you.

Key lime cake sounds tasty.

Puerto Rico is not USA

Excuse me? It may not be a State, but it is certainly part of the United States of America. Unless... unless you also think Washington, D.C. is not USA.

As a Californian, I have to admit I dunno what's up with Persimmon bread.

Also, why can't anybody have more normal things like Michigan?

Oh you.


From personal experience, though, vegan/vegetarian gravies do vary in quality. Some really just taste like pureed mushrooms.

If I had to choose one I would keep Puerto Rico.

I thought vegan mushroom gravy would be made from mushrooms and served over sliced vegan.

Correct. It is a district of Columbia

"Chess bar".

Is that like a king prawn, horse and rook salad? Or something?

Actually, I can only handle very simple games of chess. If they involve food in any way.

 

[Bugfatty300]

Correct. It is a district of Columbia

But which country is it part of?

 

[Borachio]

Columbia. Evidently.

Honestly, that wasn't a hard question for me to answer. Quite why Washington should be part of the country of Columbia is a bit of mystery to me, though.

 

[gay_Aleks]

Which Columbia? What if they're part of Canada?

 

[Borachio]

Who knows? I just wish it was part of Colombia.

In fact, financially speaking, parts of it may well be.

 

[ArneHD]

I think that the entire continent should just reveal that there is no USA and that it's actually more Canada in disguise.

Canadian Thanksgiving is already past.

Puerto Rico is basically a state in all but representation. I don't know how you can call it not part of the US. It might even be a state within the next 15 years.
