Chocolate Cake with Mocha Frosting
Chocolate therapy! This was quite easy and delicious. I didn’t have a 9 x 13 pan, as the recipe stated, I used an 8 x 8 which increased the baking time to an hour. It also makes a great dessert for the holidays! Adapted from Make it Ahead by Ina Garten.
Nectarine and Blackberry Crisp
I’m always reading about fashion and beauty products on Goop, but this time I decided to try the recipes. Very easy, delicious, and can be used with other fruits. I didn’t use gluten-free flour but I did use the coconut sugar, something I never used before in a recipes. And I served it with greek yogurt for brunch, rather than as a dessert served … Read More Nectarine and Blackberry Crisp
To Die For Carrot Cake
I think the title says it all. It really is a moist and delicious cake. Get the recipe here.
Charlotte aux Abricots
Easy, no-bake, and delicious dessert inspired by Elizabeth Bard’s Lunch in Paris. She called it the student charlotte, as the real French charlotte’s ladyfingers are soaked in alcohol. I modified it by using sponge-like ladyfingers and placing it a 10-inch spring form pan.
Toffee Brownie Trifle
Happy Valentine’s Day! Another great dessert to celebrate this special day. Get recipe here.
Ultimate Banana Bread
This is part 2 of this week’s grain-free and gluten-free baking. Recipe adapted from The Nourishing Home. There’s a few options with this recipe; an additional sliced ripe banana coated in coconut oil can be layered on the sides, fold in 1/3 cup of dairy free chocolate chips or you can add chopped walnuts. Delicious in any option!
Bavarois
This is a cream dessert with a gelatin base. Adapted from American Home magazine probably dating back to the 1940’s. I added the full 8 ounce package of cream cheese instead of 3 ounces that it originally stated, to give it a creamier texture. I also would advise to chop the cherries.
Cheese Cake Torte
This no-bake dessert recipe was given to me by my husband’s aunt. She noted that her quests went for seconds. It is a very addicting dessert, we couldn’t stop eating it. Very easy to assemble, just make sure it you let it sit in the refrigerator long enough or place in the freezer for an hour before serving.
