Baked White Chocolate Cheesecake with Mascarpone & Strawberries … BEST CHEESECAKE EVER
Baked White Chocolate Cheesecake with Mascarpone & Strawberries might well be my best cheesecake to date. Smooth, rich, indulgent, satisfying and quite impressive for something made so simple. A quick jam like reduction, some balsamic, some vanilla, a dash of lime juice and sugar of course yielded a beautiful topping for the cheesecake.

Dark Chocolate Wholegrain Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Dark Chocolate Wholegrain Cupcakes with Maple Syrup Cream Cheese Frosting. It's been forever since I baked cupcakes or muffins. I bake cakes and cookies more often I guess, possibly, lazy me. Yet when Spring comes and summer is round the corner, the first thing I reach out for are these gorgeous cupcake liners a sweet friend sent me. This time I also had on hand a 100% pure maple syrup from Canada.

Smoky Baked Mushroom Cheese Dip with #bigbanyanwines for the holidays
Smoky Baked Mushroom Cheese Dip is a definite crowd pleaser, and a great addition to the holiday table. Smoky Gouda, wine simmered mushrooms, garlic and fresh thyme make one of the best cheesy dips ever. Baked briefly under a hot grill until the cheese melts into gooey goodness. Serve immediately with simple crusty artisan bread to soak up the wine juices and deliciously flavoured cheese.
