Sugar Rush: Pecan Crusted Cheesecake from Big Girl Baking Co.
The miniature pecan crusted cheesecake ($5) from Big Girl Baking Co. tastes less like cake, more like mousse. Although it's made of your typical rich cheesecake ingredients—including cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and butter—it has a light, fluffy, and creamy texture that makes it dangerously easy to eat in one sitting. Hell, in one minute. The sweetness is just right and the flavor is accented by thin layers of crushed pecans on the bottom and top. You can order these cakes from Big Girl Baking Co.'s website or by calling 877-721-3644 to be delivered in New York City up to southern Westchester County.
