Raise your hand if you like to eat cheese!
Who doesn’t, right? Did you know that everyone’s favourite dairy product has its own day of celebration?
Yes – World Cheese Day falls on June 4th, and Cartoon Network is inviting fans to join in the fun with a Tom and Jerry-themed no-bake cheesecake recipe that the whole family can enjoy as part of the perfect bonding activity.
What would Tom and Jerry be without cheese right? For more than 80 years, cheese has been central to Tom’s hapless mouse-hunt routine. Slices wedged in mousetraps, dangled from a string, cheese is truly Jerry’s kryptonite. However, despite Tom’s firm belief that he will one day succeed, Tom’s record of failed attempts to capture his frenemy is impeccable. Poor Tom!
Putting Tom’s failed attempts aside, here’s one easy no-bake cheesecake recipe for all cheese lovers reading that will surely make your World Cheese Day a memorable one.
