Strawberry Rose Tea Cakes: Fresh strawberries baked into a tender, lightly spiced little bundt cake with a delightful floral scent of rose water. These really are lovely little cakes. My first time ever using rose water and, I have to say, I absolutely love it! Not only did it add a nice floral scent, but…
This Italian Almond Cake is one of those desserts that you just can’t help going back for more. It’s buttery and dense but moist and tender at the same time. Imagine, if you will, that Almond Shortbread and Almond Pound Cake got together and had a baby. The result would be this buttery, almondy, pound…

These Amazing Layer Bars take the traditional “seven layer bars” to new and amazing heights! Not that layer bars aren’t already amazing to begin with. But I took the original recipe and just “kicked it up a notch”! I mean, why use only one kind of chocolate when you can have three? And how about…

I just realised that I haven’t posted a dessert recipe in quite a while. I decided to go with a simple yet classic dessert recipe this time, Vanilla Pastry Cream. One of my favorite ways to use it is in a Fresh Strawberry Tart. So Yummy! It tastes so decadent but is actually very easy…
Peanut butter and chocolate, such a great combination. I made these brownies with M&M’s Peanut Butter Eggs. Yum! I just love peanut butter M&M’s. They remind me of the peanut butter Oompas that we used to buy at the corner store as kids. Anyone else out there remember these yummy candies? We used to ride…
This frosting is the perfect combination of creamy, buttery, chocolaty yum with a hint of coffee.
These Pecan Pie Bars are absolutely delicious either way you make them. The crust is similar to that of a shortbread and the topping is like a traditional pecan pie with a maple glaze to top it all off.
Rich and decadent bread custard with juicy blackberries and lemon scented white chocolate sauce. The perfect ending to your summer meal.
