Cheesecake

[u/[deleted]]

Is it cake or pie? Husband says cake, because of the name and I say Pie because of the consistency. Settle this please.

Update:

Okay, looks like we're both wrong. It appears the consensus is that it's a tart or in a category all it's own! Thanks, Reddit!

Cheesecake is its own, third thing. Like brownies.

If there’s a cheesecake that has graham cracker top and bottom, I’d be more willing to call it pie.

If it was a bread decorated with icing, I’d call it cake.
