Ribbon Bar Cheesecake
"This is fantastic! Chocolate cream cheese, coconut, and pecans. Who cares what else! LOL! Seriously, this is some kind of good! It is baked in a 13X9inch baking dish. So invite all of the neighbors. I found this on a calendar I received from Kraft. Cooking time includes chill time."

Thanks Fluffster for posting this recipe. I had seen it in my Kraft calendar too and was glad to find it posted here for safe keeping. Made this for my family bar-b-q and it turned out good. I probably over-cooked it a little as it was dry but still good. The chocolate crust was a real winner with everyone. I had trouble with the frosting, not enough to cover the cake and seemed to thick to spread as I thought it should, So maybe next time (and I will make it again) I'll just look for another frosting recipe and maybe use milk chocolate to see if it'll work better with the chocolate crust. All in all a good recipe, and my problems could have been the result of my lack of cooking skills. -
Nice cheesecake recipe. I added 1 tsp. of vanilla to the cream cheese mixture. After cutting into squares, i squiggled a lil white chocolate over the top of each, and placed in a large paper muffin cup. I made these for a ladies card party I am catering this evening. I sampled a piece, and I'm sure they will enjoy.....

I would like to welcome you to my recipes. I have been with Food.com since 10/05.
My beloved husband, Tom, passed away 3 years ago. My world stopped. It's taken me all this time to find my way back to life without him.
I have been so blessed to have found my second, once in a lifetime. I've met an amazing man who is so good to me.
We moved from Las Vegas, Nevada to Bullhead City, Az. in February, and we love it here.
I have worked at Bally's and Paris hotel.casinos, in Las Vegas. I have seen some very famous entertainers, including Liza Minnelli, Penn and Teller, Ray Liotta, Dr. J (Julius Erving), Frank Sinatra and his wife Barbara Marx. and many, many more.
Cooking is my passion, and I am slowly, but surely beginning to venture into the world of baking. To me, cooking is so much easier because baking is so much more exact.
I love to make Italian and Mexican food the best, followed by Chinese and last, but by far the least, good old American food! How can you beat chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and gravy?? I love to find several recipes and put my own spin on them and create a new recipe.
