Nicole, it'll be a week or two before I get to try it but I have a couple of boxes of thin mints stashed in the back of the freezer that no one knows about. I have too many sweets hanging around that need to be eaten first.

Well, I made the cheesecake... Came out beautifully but, wasn't as good as I thought it would have been. I rate it a 6.
