Spiderman Cheesecake

So I'm working on my homemaking skills due to the fact that I'm getting married in--drumroll please--a month and 2 days!!!  *squeee*  ...But who's counting.
No but anyways, so I made my fiancee (hereafter known fondly as "B") a birthday cheesecake, since he doesn't actually like regular cake.
Here's the finished product:

FYI, peanut butter makes awesome frosting if you heat it up for about 15 seconds and then use it in a pastry bag.  Melted chocolate chips, on the other hand--well, they work great for some things, like covering raspberries in, but they're not so good as a frosting agent.  To use B's own words:  "You can't really break off a little piece, it all comes off at once, kind of like a scab".
Lovely image, dearest.
But there you have it!!  Next time you're strapped for frosting, out of powdered sugar or simply don't feel like the overpowering sweetness of most frosting recipes, reach for your can of peanut butter.  It works charmingly!
Until next time.


p.s.  In case anyone wonders how to get the spiderweb-ish effect, just drizzle the frosting in spirals, starting in the middle, and go in circles until you reach the edge.  Then drag a toothpick from the center to the outer edges.  It works well when going for a tye-dye look too.  Happy frosting :)
