Today I dined at the Cheesecake Factory with my parents. This was at the request of my mother who does not share the same restaurant standards as I do, but because she brought me two new jars of Peanut Butter and Co.'s White Chocolate Wonderful, I was in no position to argue. Our lunch concluded with her and I sharing a piece of Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Cheesecake. At first I found it difficult to choose when there were not only so many options, but so many ingredients in each cake. Apparently is not enough to have chocolate cheesecake, so peanut butter cookie dough was added. Is peanut butter cookie dough one entity or was it peanut butter and cookie dough? One option had peanut butter, Butterfingers, Reeses Peanut Butter Cups, and caramel in it. And that is not including the principal ingredients in the cheesecake. The whole things is excessive but I say its not enough. Why not add more? Adding peanut butter, white chocolate, and/or various fruit flavoring is fine, but what about bacon or BBQ sauce? How about Strawberry French Toast Cheesecake drizzled with maple syrup? Can they make a grilled cheese cheesecake? Butterscotch Cinnamon Toast Crunch, or Blueberry Pancake Batter cheesecake? Something with pesto? I've had rum cake, is it possible to add Jack Daniel's to cheesecake? Can they add 'Nilla Wafers, Pineapple Salsa, Robitussin, or Circus Peanuts? Some might say they have too many choices, but for me, its just not enough until I see Raspberry Jelly Scrambled Eggs cheesecake topped with bacon bits on the menu.
