Warm Flourless Chocolate Cake with Caramel Sauce

I made this cake for my mom's birthday party and it was an extremely easy and delicious recipe! It was very rich and if you are a chocolate lover you will LOVE this cake! I also, used the Choc. Genache recipe from this site instead of the caramel sauce,to go with it which was also very easy! I used raspberries for decor on top along with a light sprinkle of powdered sugar and the only request I rec'd was "are there anymore raspberries and do you have any milk?" It got rave reviews from everyone, even my 5 yr old nephew who is very picky (he asked for more berries). If you are a dark chocolate lover like I am, use 70% cocoa chips if you can find them ( I bought mine at Whole Foods grocery store). The cake is very rich, so thin slices are perfect and you can serve more guests, if they don't fight over the last slice, like mine did. I suggest serving it with fresh berries and possibly a small scoop of vanilla ice cream to cut the richness, other wise follow the recipe exactly. You wont be disappointed. I gave this 5 stars (even though I didn't make the sauce) because it was sooo easy to put together and it tasted so decadent. Enjoy!

Crustless Spinach Quiche

I love this recipe. You can do anything to it and it is very forgiving and tasty! The first time I made this I wanted it a little less dense, so I cut the spinach in half and added fresh mushrooms,it was delicious! Since then I have used sauteed asparagus tips, chopped apple wood smoked bacon, and I only use 1 cup of shredded cheese and 2 oz low fat feta and 2 tablespoons of freshly grated parmesan cheese. I also only use 2 eggs and 1 cup of egg whites it is always delicious and healthy! Each slice is about 166 calories! If you do use egg whites you have to increase the cooking time to 45 minutes, though, well worth the wait! I make this recipe different every week and eat a slice for breakfast on my way out the door. Yummy!

Homemade Butter

We use this recipe ALL the time and it's the best! We add a little fresh minced garlic for garlic bread or omit the salt and a little sugar and cinnamon. You can play with it by adding almost anything. My favorite is adding about 1 tablespoon of honey at the very end of the whipping time and spreading it on pancakes, YUM YUM. My husband likes to add honey and grated orange rind, which is also very good on pancakes, toast or any type of muffin or bread. The skies the limit with this recipe. Have fun!
