You tube did not notify me that you had a new video. I found this by going to your channel to see if I missed a video. So glad I checked because this look so, so good. Might just have convinced me to try my first ever cheesecake. Getting the job done with a late-night bake, :) thanks for sharing this yummy looking recipe.

[@paulandbenny]

You're the second person to tell me that they didn't get notified. So wierd. Thank you so much for checking😊 I appreciate you being a great youtube supporter- friend to us/our channel. I hope you like it if you make it 🍰

[@hershbergersmiraclehomeste6885]

Yes, it is wierd, at least youtube still had us subscribed to your channel. The feeling is mutual, and you said it well "youtube supporter-friend to us/our channel"

I use the same vanilla and it’s the best! B-roll for breakfast-that’s the life of a KZbinr. In this case I see it as protein and fruit before Benny’s run 😂

[@paulandbenny]

Yes!👏👏👏👏 And you have a point there. It's a great pre-run treat. LOL. Thank you for watching!

[@jeanineskitchen2607]

[@paulandbenny]

You could even cut the recipe in half and make a small one. I hope he likes it. Thank you for watching!

Normalize cheesecake as a breakfast food. It’s basically a pastry like a Cheese Danish. Thanks for sharing. Also, my oven doesn’t go up to 3250 F. 😂

[@paulandbenny]

I mean, You are right! It’s basically a Danish and it’s got fruit and eggs👏 And great catch on the temp😆 Thank you! And thank you very much for watching!

If you look at the lanolin in blueberries, lime is a better choice than lemon.

[@paulandbenny]

I’ve never heard that, and I love lime. I’ll look into it. Thank you for the great tip, and thank you for watching!
