Mon Gateau Au Chocolat by Ali El Safy

An absolutely wonderful cake; most traditionally served without icing. If you're including kids, might want to add your favorite, but I love it the "old school" way!

Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake

Pão de Ló - Portuguese Sponge Cake by Sofia Reino

I have always loved this recipe, especially when one is able to cook in in such a way that the middle part is still wet. I have always been afraid of making this recipe as I am not the best at baking. But amazingly enough it came out perfect and I am very proud of myself.

Use this topping on any thing you wish to enhance with CHOCOLATE, from baked goods to ice cream. It will keep for a couple of days unrefrigerated - a couple of weeks in the cooler.

Shoo-Fly Pie

Fast Cinnamon Yoghurt Cake

Fast Cinnamon Yoghurt Cake by Hina Gujral

The yoghurt in this cake gives it a gentle tang and ensure it is wonderfully light. The sweetness comes mostly from honey, and being made with vegetable oil, this cake has a deliciously soft crumb. The flaked almonds give a nice crunch to the topping but if you are not an nut lover than either you can totally skip the topping part or…
