I tried. It was more like pink biscuits with frosting

Yeah, but were they good?

In order to do that, I need to make another hard cheese that needs to be waxed and aged.

Ah, such a shame, more cheese

Okay I have always been bad at frosting too much this or that .. Think one of the gals here said soft butter, powdered sugar, vanilla salt and sugar .. just bit of milk.
I winged it but sure came out good .. but use a real butter in it.

That would be me... I always used salted butter... because it makes it better, lol. But adding a pinch of salt wouldn't hurt the frosting none. I'm pretty sure I shared a few pictures of my decorated cakes..?

I make a similar cheesecake as what you posted. It is a recipe from my mom. Did you use quark for your cheese??? That is what I make mine from,,, and I make my own quark.

Had to look up quark, lol.
I've made yogurt a handful of times and yogurt cheese... but I'll stick to baking!

I used my GF sourdough discard today to make a pancake in my new favorite pan, the cast iron skillet. I fell more in love with that thing. I want to move from acquaintance to steady!

I want to get one of those handle covers to put on the handle so I don't accidentally grab it and burn my hand. (I know that they are not for oven use.) I'm hoping that the local grocery has them. Or maybe Lowes... I have a $50 gift card there that is burning a hole in my wallet.

I had to look Quark up too. Now I'm intrigued! That cheese making catalog can't get here soon enough! I might have to get stuff and try making quark AND mozzarella.

Well if you use salted butter in Alton browns buttercream don’t add the salt!
