Listen, quarantine life can be rough. Not only are we having to find things for the kids to do while school is out, but we’re going a tad stir-crazy indoors.

Thankfully, some of our favorite comfort food places are coming to the rescue. First, Disney shared a bunch of its best theme park recipes; now The Cheesecake Factory is telling us how to make some of their signature dishes at home.

The restaurant chain released recipes for 19 of its menu items, and although you could just order Cheesecake Factory delivery (with a free slice of cheesecake through 4/16), there’s something especially delicious about a culinary challenge.

Here are 5 of the simplest Cheesecake Factory recipes to make:
