Mixing Coca-Cola and Milk Is a Thing People Do, I Guess — Food News
Milk: I’m a big fan. You’re great with cereal, delicious with my coffee in the morning, and you’re an all-around useful ingredient in anything from cakes to making really good chicken.
Coca-Cola: likewise, big fan. A staple at barbecues, great with a deli sandwich, or sitting right next to some buttery popcorn in a large cup at the movie theater.
Milk, Coke, I love you both, but I love you both separately. And honestly, until today I never thought I’d even have to think of you in the same space. But then the internet learned that people drink milk and Coke TOGETHER and honestly I’m not sure what to make of it all.

8 Topping Ideas for Instant Pot Cheesecake — Recipes from The Kitchn
If you’re a cheesecake-lover, you know a cheesecake is only as good as its toppings. When I was growing up, canned strawberries were my favorite — mainly because they’re were teeth-achingly sweet and I didn’t really know any better. These days, however, homemade fruit sauces, caramel drizzle, and even candied nuts are my toppings of choice.

Rather than worry about preheating an oven and waiting a solid hour for the cheesecake to bake, it’s set up in half the time in an Instant Pot. That means extra time for you to make and eat more cheesecake, so you’ll need a few good toppings to reach for. Here are eight.
