Pumpkin Frangelico Cheesecake

Has anyone made this? I'm very disappointed. I ended up scooping out most of the middle - it just wouldn't bake - it was like soup. The only thing I did different from the recipe - I used a hand mixer instead of a food processor. I didn't think that would make a difference.

Sausage And Peppers

I tried this recipie, but had to change a few things. I didn't have white wine so I used a red wine. Added a splash of italian seasoning and only used half of the fennel seed. Very Very tasty, best I've ever had! Next time though I'll use some sweet sausage along with the hot, maybe half and half, it was just a bit spicy for me.
