Peanut Butter Cheesecake (Gluten & Dairy Free)

Hello everyone, welcome to my latest recipe for Gluten and Dairy Free Peanut Butter Cheesecake.

Yesterday we had a little family party for Eva’s second birthday.  She was crazy excited for all her presents – my favourite being a beautiful little play kitchen.  I’m hoping she develops my interest in food and we can bake together when she gets older.  I made her this peanut butter cheesecake for dessert which was well received.

Unfortunately the party ended with absolutely torrential rain, flooding in the village and a house nearby being struck by lightening!  The weather just seems to be super crazy just now.  Eva has described the thunder noise as  a tiger in the sky – I like that description.
