WHAT I BRING MY BUYERS THE DAY AFTER THEY MOVE IN...

By
Real Estate Agent with Bill Cherry, Realtor 0124242

Perhaps it's because I like to cook.

Or maybe it's because I like to share a dish that our family and guests especially enjoy.

Nevertheless, I've found that my clients seem to especially appreciate it when I make something just for them. 

Here's one that is easy, you can't mess up, but still brings rave reviews.

 

Gâteau au Fromage Artillerie Club

 

The Artillery Club is the oldest men’s private club west of the Mississippi.  It was incorporated about two years prior to the Civil War for the purpose of protecting Galveston Island.

 

After 1865, the Artillery Club has been a social club.  Membership is limited to about two hundred.  In addition to presenting debutantes each year, the club has also held its own Mardi Gras celebration, including appointing a secret king and queen, each year since its inception.

 

For as far back as I can remember, my family, including me, has been members. 

 

                       Gâteau au Fromage Artillerie Club

                       Artillery Club Cheesecake

 

 

¾ cup               Brown sugar

3                      8 oz packages of cream cheese

2 ½ tsp            Ground cinnamon

1 tps                 Vanilla extract

3                      Eggs

1/3 cup             Sour cream

 

Blend cream cheese, sour cream, brown sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract.  Then continue to mix, adding one egg in at a time.  (I use the bread batter whip on the KitchenAid mixer). 

 

Pour the mixture into a graham cracker crust and bake at 325 degreed for about 45 minutes.  Take out and let set until pie reached room temperature and then cover with foil and chill in the refrigerator.

That looks so good, I'm tempted to buy a home from you, just to get a piece of pie!

I love cheesecake!  It's so sweet (in both senses of the word!) of you to do that for your buyers.

Hi Bill... I will definitely have to try this someday if I ever get off my diet.  Of course, I haven't given up bacon, so I guess I could have some cheesecake too, right?
