peanutbutter cup cheesecake

Moment of truth: My husband likes to cook even more than I do. I joke often about sharing his recipes with my readers and, one day, he said, “Go ahead.” And that’s  how #WhenDaddyCooks was born. I’m excited to showcase his creations from time to time (when it’s not a super top secret recipe, of course). First up is his newest ‘accident’ that we devoured only a few days ago: Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake

    Peanut butter cups and cheesecake together? YES! I love this. Now why can’t I get my husband to make me cheesecake too?
