From King Arthur; I haven’t tried it yet but want to. Fruits of the Earth Cheesecake This creamy cheesecake features an incredibly simple, four-ingredient filling.

Theodore really likes these made with beets, because they turn the tops purple (they don’t affect the rest of the muffin). We very specifically don’t tell him what’s in them, though; that would be a big mistake that would lead to him not eating any more. He’s THAT convinced that he doesn’t like anything healthy, […]
