No need to be intimidated -crepes are surprisingly easy. Mix simple, everyday ingredients -milk, egg, flour and the like -swirl the mix in a lightly oiled pan and fill with sweet or savory delights.

Blueberries are baked into this adaptation of the traditional French dessert made with fresh cherries called 'clafoutis.' When other kinds of fruit are used, the dessert is called a 'flognarde.' By either name, the light, custard-like batter, similar to pancakes, is divine with fresh fruit.

Buche de Noel is the French name for a Christmas cake shaped like a log. This one is a heavenly flourless chocolate cake rolled with chocolate whipped cream. Traditionally, Buche de Noel is decorated with confectioners' sugar to resemble snow on a Yule log.

An original French dessert recipe of my grandmother's, tweaked a bit to be lower in fat! It's best made with fresh fruit and is delicious with a dollop of lite whipped topping. If you want to make it the original way, not low-fat, just use regular milk and butter and 4 large eggs. Also, to substitute for kirsch, you may use the juice from five squashed cherries or use 1 tablespoon of cherry syrup.

Very rich chocolate mousse over a rich chocolate cake layer and topped with chocolate ganache sauce and chopped nuts. Great for special occasions. This cake takes TIME to make, and TIME to set. It's worth every second of preparation, and is a hit every time!

It may surprise you that such few and simple ingredients, egg yolks, sugar, cream and vanilla extract, make this favorite dessert. Plan ahead. You'll need to refrigerate the custard twice before serving!

A wonderful baked creme brulee. Use white or brown sugar for the top. If you do not have a kitchen torch, a regular propane torch can be used or simply place the custard under the broiler for a few minutes.
