Place the cheesecake in the fridge again for 2-3 hours. Serve this delicious cheesecake and immediately become everyone’s favorite person.
The pumpkin spice latte is the pumpkin recipe to end all pumpkin recipes. These specialty coffees can be good but often have too many artificial flavors. If you want a sip of fall, follow this recipe for a healthy natural way to spice up your day. You’ll need 8 oz of brewed coffee (or 1-2 shots of espresso), 1/2 cup vanilla almond milk, 3 tbsp of pumpkin puree, 1/2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice, 1/2 tsp of vanilla, 2 tsp of maple syrup, and a pinch of cinnamon. Mix in a cup or saucepan the almond milk and pumpkin with a frother or blender. Cook on medium heat on a stovetop or microwave for 30 seconds. Once removed from heat, stir in vanilla, spices, and maple syrup. Pour into a cup and use the frother to foam the milk. The other option is blending the mixture in a blender for 30 seconds or until foamy. Pour the brewed coffee into a mug and pour the frothed milk over it. Top it with cinnamon (and/or a cinnamon stick, if you’re feeling fancy) and enjoy your morning.
