Browsing through Pinterest for a new dessert idea, I fell on this recipe. I love pecan pie and I love cheesecake, so I thought the combination of the two would be divine – I wasn’t wrong! It was not an easy cake to make – it took a few hours, but it was definitely worth it.

So, after this intense week, I have lost…drum roll… 6 lbs and my stomach has never been flatter :) This year I decided to keep my New Year’s Eve resolution! I’ve decided to get in shape before the summer…
