  4. If only I hadn`t just used up my cream cheese to make mint chocolate chip cheesecake. I will be trying out this recipe next time, although use crushed honey chex for base to make it gluten free. Am following your blog now via GFC and can`t wait to come back as I love food! Would like it if you would check out my blog and follow back.
