A suburban Phoenix family reported to have suffered a holiday miracle after their Christmas cheesecake took a divine design.

According to the Arizona Republic reports, when a family in Scottsdale, Ariz., pulled their dessert out of the oven, it cracked in the center as it cooled to form a crucifix.

The family members, who have kept their identity under cover, believe that the crucifix is a message sent from above.

The family has refused to eat the cheesecake. Instead, they plan to put it on sale and donate the money to a local charity or church.
