Whip Cream Cake

Whip Cream Cake by Salad Foodie

This vintage recipe was mom's special occasion cake - sublime and delicate. Choose any flavor of frosting. I like to use a buttercream vanilla or chocolate but it depends on the occasion. Photos show a buttercream chocolate frosted and a single layer buttercream vanilla Easter cake. Now that's one the Easter bunny doesn't hide!.

NUTTY flourless cookie CRISPS < Brutti ma Buoni >

NUTTY flourless cookie CRISPS < Brutti ma Buoni > by Foodessa

Got a few egg whites left over from a recipe? Here's a super easy crispy, flourless cookie called < Brutti ma Buoni >. It's an Italian saying...loosely translated as ugly looking (not really) but yummy. Originally made with roasted hazelnuts...however, re-created to include roasted almonds instead. I also reduced much of the…

German Chocolate Cookies

German Chocolate Cookies by Salad Foodie

This recipe from the BHG.com website was developed as a healthier alternative to outright decadent German chocolate cake. Rolled oats and flax meal are substitutes for part of the all purpose flour, and butter and sugar have been reduced. I resisted the urge to tweak ingredients as I often do, and was pleasantly surprised that they…

Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie

Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie by Salad Foodie

How about a foot-wide chocolate chip cookie for a party or gift? This treat is quick and easily portable. Chocolate chip cookie recipes abound, but I like this one especially. It’s Wilton’s Chocolate Chip Cookie For Giant Cookie Pans, and never fails for me to bake to chewy perfection. Add a few icing decorations or pieces of candy…

Faux Chocolate Silk Pie

Faux Chocolate Silk Pie by Salad Foodie

A chocolate lover’s delight and so easy for Easter or Mother’s Day dessert. Rich and smooth, this take on French chocolate silk pie has a secret - tofu replaces heavy cream! But no one will know the difference - unless you tell! I tried this out on my unsuspecting son who avoids tofu-anything. He sampled it, then scarfed the whole…

Peanutty Oatmeal Cookies

Peanutty Oatmeal Cookies by Salad Foodie

A different take on peanut butter cookies. The oatmeal adds chewiness, and the chopped peanuts add extra crunch. For an over-the-top serving, spread a cookie with a smear of peanut butter and dab of jelly.

Spice Nut Bundt Cake with Lemon Glaze

Spice Nut Bundt Cake with Lemon Glaze by Salad Foodie

A sassy lemon glaze sets off this spice Bundt cake. It fits the bill for morning coffee or afternoon breaktime, and keeps well several days refrigerated. If you don't have cardamom spice just replace with an equivalent amount of allspice and cloves.
