I love to bake whenever I have the opportunity and I love a great challenge. When I was approached to take part in a baking challenge using plastics, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. With Valentines’ Day and Love in the air I decided to make my husband’s and daughter’s favorite treat, mini cheesecakes.  Our challenge involved using only plastics to help make our favorite Valentine’s Day recipe.

I admit, before this I was trapped in the belief that you only bake using metal cookie sheets, mixing bowls, etc.. Boy was I wrong. I used silicon bakeware and I don’t think I can go back.  The silicon is a breeze when it comes to unfolding and removing my goodies was a cinch. In my opinion plastics also cool much quicker than metal bakeware and because they are so easy to use my daughter helped me unmold the mini cheesecakes in a snap.

Plastics Make it Possible is a great website that provides info on using plastic in our lives, green living and more.  You can also find the recipe for my mini cheesecakes on the website here. You can also head over to read about the challenge I’m a part of and the best part, how you can win a plastics bakeware gift bag worth $250 to help you create your favorite recipe in your own kitchen.
