Lime Gelatin with Pears and CherriesMy aunt made this gelatin frequently in winter especially during the holidays, and with its predominant green and red colors, it makes an appealing luncheon dessert. The recipe posted is as close as my memories allowed. However today with the variety of health issues guests may have, I frequently offer 2 versions, the one below and a… |

Sweetened Macapuno StringsI like this native dessert and I'm missing it much! This is an old recipe by my grandma. No one makes it better than her for me :) |

Raspberry espuma or foamMaybe you've never heard about the iSi Whip, which I use for making whipped cream since some years ago, because there's no other device as good for serving perfectly whipped cream, straight from the bottle. Mr. Ferrán Adriá,the famous Spanish cook, in a quest to provide espumas, foams, mousses, or whatever you want to call them… |

Apple Crisp – Microwave Quick!I haven’t found a quicker apple crisp recipe that tastes as good (or better) than oven-baked. Simple prep and fast cooking make this a perfect dessert when you’re short on time. Plus you can make it year round as the microwave won't heat up the kitchen. |

Cherry Winks ~ Classic CookiesThis is the original recipe for a cookie that won the 2nd Pillsbury Bake Off. They contain dates, pecans, maraschino cherries, cornflakes and a kiss of vanilla extract. I have followed the original recipe but you G-F members will see my modifications for you in the Ingredints below. I've adapted the recipe for gluten intolerant… |

Mom's Homemade Peach DumplingsThis recipe was given to me by my mom. When it comes to pies & cobblers, I'm considered a "crust snatcher" as I love the crusts more than the fruit or filling; and when I see a cobbler, I'll cut into it and lift out all of the crust and just leave the fruit and juice for everyone else (if given the chance)! LOL!! So this recipe is… |

Blueberries with Lime Sugar & Citrus ConfitThis is one of my absolute favorite berry desserts and comes from Tony Bourdain and Les Halles Restaurant in NYC. I have had the audacity to make just one minor modification to the recipe, but I have no regrets, and neither will you. We grow blueberries all season long at Walnut Ridge Farm, so there are always opportunities to try… |

Strawberry and Rhubarb Tapioca PuddingA delightful tapioca pudding for a special occasion. So ruby-red pretty, and with a small scoop of vanilla ice cream on top, you'll think you died and went to heaven. If fresh rhubarb is not available substitute frozen, and mash or cut up after simmering if necessary. |

Strawberry Pretzel dessertFell in love with this when I first tried it about 25 years ago. Nicknamed it 'World Class jello' since it has such a premium taste and quality to it. |

Key Lime PieToo early for real, fresh fruit pies here - but Spring brings Key Limes, and that means unbaked Key Lime Pie with a slightly sweetened sour cream topping. I use pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs, so there is no issue with salmonella and I can move the pies from prep to cooler. Saves a load of time and makes a fabulous, flavorful,… |

Easy Cinnamon Apple StrudelThis is super simple and truly delicious. I made it for John's birthday dinner, since he loves cinnamon apple desserts with vanilla ice cream. It's light and flavorful without being too rich. We finished it all in one night between the six of us. Mmm! |

Apple TurnoversI love apple turnovers. It’s like having a slice of apple pie all wrapped up in its own package. Delicious! When I was a child one of my favorite things was the apple turnovers you could buy in the dairy case and I could assemble and bake them myself. I thought how easy those would be to make from scratch, well almost from… |

Sweet Potato-Banana PuréeThis fruity purée from Chef Ron Siegel of Masa's in San Francisco may be made up to 1 day ahead; cool, cover, and chill. Reheat, covered, in a microwave oven on full power (100%), stirring occasionally for about 3 minutes. I wouldn't have thought banana would be a positive addition to a sweet potato puree, but it really is. The… |
