Cherry Pineapple Crumble
As I was just enjoying the last piece of leftovers, I was wondering how easy it was to put together this delicious fruity dessert. I made it recently for my son’s birthday party and I can’t wait to make it again. Along with the cake, I wanted to make a simple eggless and light dessert and I hardly had any time on hand. I absolutely liked the idea of making a crumble with pineapple and cherries, both my favorites. The original recipe did not call for pineapple slices but I just added them to double the pineapple flavor. I More >

Strawberries dipped in Chocolate
There is a something romantic about strawberries dipped in chocolate. It could be that color red and chocolate are both symbols of romance or it could be just that sweet strawberries are so perfect with indulgent chocolate that they seem to be in love themselves!. Not only do they make a low calorie dessert (about 70 calories a piece!) but they also makes a great snack. While strawberries are in season, this is one thing no one should miss.You need:
20-25 strawberries 4 baking chocolate blocks (semi sweet) sprinkles and/or chopped nuts/or any other topping

Candy Cane White Chocolate Fudge
Today I made this festive peppermint fudge for my friends and family.

As I am writing, I already ate couple of pieces and I am struggling hard to not to grab another one!
You need:
3 1/2 cups white chocolate baking chips (I used Nestle Tollhouse White Morsels) 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk – I used Eagle brand 1 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla extract 1 cup crushed candy canes A dash of red food More >
Almond Butter Cookies (Eggless)
Dec 8th
A very close family friend taught me how to make the basic eggless cookies and I am very fond of those. These cookies come out little crumbly and are not overly sweet. I had been thinking of replacing the unsalted butter (called in the original recipe) with the almond butter to add nutty flavor and goodness of almonds. I finally gave it a try last weekend.
You need:
1 cup almond butter (unsalted butter for the basic recipe) 1 cup oil 1 tsp baking soda 1 tsp vanilla extract 4 and 1/4th cup all purpose flour 1 cup sugar Red, Green sugar crystals More >
