Order a cheesecake from Pappadeauxs. Do it a day ahead. You'll look like a genius.
Tell them to cut it in like 12 pieces. A normal piece would put an elephant into a coma.
It's about $40 or $50. Sounds like a lot but I swear this thing weighs 20 lbs.
Women will bitch about how you didn't slave in the kitchen or how their me-ma made the best cheesecake until they put the first bite into their mouths.
I've done it several times. Always a home run.
