The original recipe used some butterscotch chips in the glaze along with chocolate chips, but you can use all chocolate chips if you wish - the chocolate lovers in your home will approve! |

Boston Cream PieThe official dessert of Massachusetts since 1996, Boston Cream Pie actually goes back 140 years earlier than that. Created by a chef at Boston’s Parker House Hotel in 1856, it is not a pie, but a cake. There are many recipes around and this is just one version. Although only one layer, the dessert is rich and satisfying. I LOVE, LOVE,… |

Chocolate Bacon Caramel CheesecakeThose of you that know us know that we like bacon, a lot. We saw a picture of a Bacon Cheesecake last week and have thought of nothing else. They didn’t have a recipe so we worked out one that we liked. Or let me say that everyone loved. Our crash test dummies Jessie and Marcos were swooning. There were only a few crumbs left on the… |

Top of the Line Banana Nut BreadThis bread is light and tender yet firm,, and has a mixture of flavors appealing to the taste buds. I began cooking at any early age and mostly used family recipes. However, over the years I have tried many bread recipes and eventually came up with this one. The blend of orange and lemon is satisfying. |

Oat Pecan Praline CookiesChewy, slightly soft texture with a hint of caramel pecan, these attractive cookies make a nice snack for company with coffee, tea or milk. Sometimes we bakers just have to break out of the oatmeal-raisin cookie rut, and these certainly do! |

There are all so many out there, but I think you‘ll like the ease of making… |

cake RICOTTA cheese CHOCOLATE RUMAll this talk about APRONS and Grandmothers got me going on assembling my notes and photos to finally share with you a very cherished recipe my 'Nonna' made for me growing up. Granted, as I turned baker in my kitchen, I confess to having tweaked it just enough to meet with her approval. She also found that my version was slightly… |

Light and Luscious Berry SorbetPerfect light dessert to finish a lunch or dinner meal and it couldn’t be easier! Make this right before serving - it’ll only take about 5 minutes. This is easy on the calories and fat, making it an option for heart-healthy and diabetes-friendly diets. Technically this is a sherbet as it contains dairy, which sorbets do not. But… |
