No Bake Dessert| Creme au chocolat shots … fudgy, indulgent, deep chocolate creme
This is my fast track version of Crème au chocolat which translates simply into my idea of an indulgent chocolate cream! The basic recipe is quite versatile, and can be easily doubled too. I like it because it can be made in advance. Also, desserts in glasses always appeal to me. They make a bold, crisp statement, and allow for contrasting pairing that you can show off. Serve it with either fresh seasonal fruit and herbs, with amaretti cookies, or paired with vanilla bean macarons. Then again, spike it with your favourite cherry liquor and serve with juicy bing cherries, or give it an espresso kick … the possibilities are…

Frozen Dessert| Strawberry Fresh Mint & Lime Sorbet … summer’s here & macarons too!
What better way to welcome the dreaded HOT days of summer. This is a natural and sensational sorbet to beat the heat. It is fresh and exciting, and a wonderful way to use summers bounty. My mint patch is overflowing and I loved that I could add fresh mint to the strawberries.

Delicious Strawberry Apple Crumble … a very easy heart friendly dessert!
One of my favourite fruit bakes ... A heart friendly dessert with complex carbs, delicious fruit and low calories. Use fruit of the season, stone and pip fruit work great here, throw in a handful of chopped dry fruit, almonds, pistachios, walnuts etc, then throw in some tart cherries, craisins, raisins if you like, add some fresh herbs like thyme for a nice Spring feel … and bake until the juices begin to enticingly ooze out. ENJOY!!
