Ok, don’t x-out of this blog yet because you saw the words “marshmallow sauce.” Yes it’s strange and I had never, ever thought to heat up marshmallows and mix them with creme de menthe to make a sauce over chocolate, but you know what — it worked! The, crust, filling and sauce all have hints [...]

I made this following dinner one night and after I ate my slice I knew two things: 1) It’s a good thing I had wrapped up the rest and put it in the fridge otherwise I’d keep going back for more and 2) I was going to having very tasty dreams about this tart. The [...]

Other desserts on the table starting at top left [...]

You may think all we eat are cakes and truffles. However, we do eat regular dinner entrees every night! Recently I made a mushroom spinach tart that was delightful. To be honest, the tart crust came out a little too crumbly. I used a tart crust recipe from before, but I think I added too [...]

This delightful and savory tart is from the blog the daily green.
I added my own touches to it, marked by italics. I made it as a side to salmon, although a white fish or just a big salad would pair nicely. It’s also a great brunch treat. It’s so versatile — don’t you just love [...]
