Seems my blogging lately has been related to our food days at work. This month's theme is our mother's best recipe. Unfortunately, the two recipes that I think are mom's best aren't suitable for the bus trip into the office.
I did my recipe prep over a couple of evenings. First I cooked the chicken, cooled it and refrigerated the broth overnight. I got a big ol' slab of fat from the top resulting from the night in the fridge. I picked the chicken and then put everything together the night before taking it to work.
Of course, I had to do a sampling to make sure it as fit to take to work <grin>. As luck would have it, my eating a bowl reduced the quantity just enough for the remaining chicken and dumplings to fit into the Tupperware bowl for transporting. I was thrilled to have kept myself from having seconds!
I can't wait for our potluck tomorrow and having another serving of this comforting dish!

Peanut Butter Cup Cheesecake
Peanut butter lovers, this one's for you! This is my most requested cheesecake ever! I took this to work once, was asked the recipe, then later requested to bring it to a meeting, which I did. The last time I made it I had to tag that friend for a copy of my recipe with notes because I couldn't find mine. By putting it on my blog, I should not have that problem ever again....of course, unless I forget that I posted it! But we won't talk about how good our memory cells are or aren't right?
Today we had our monthly potluck at work and I decided to make this one rather than the chocolate one I posted recently. This cheesecake continues to get rave reviews. I didn't bring home a single crumb, which was significant because there were a lot of folks taking off today for their 4th of July holiday. Others were working from home. Given the number of folks in the office, I was fully expecting to be bringing half, if not more, of the cheesecake home with me. I'm thrilled that my prediction didn't come true.
This cheesecake is a little extra work but worth every ounce of effort. Your family, guests, friends or co-workers will love love love it! I know a few of my followers who will almost lick the screen when they see these photos and read the recipe.
I can only say it is a very rich, but amazingly yummy cheesecake. Try it, you'll like it!
