Talk about ooey gooey goodness!!! You won’t believe how easy and delicious this Caramel Apple Poke Cake is. Bring on the layers…apple pie filling, white cake mix, caramel sundae topping, butterscotch pudding icing and pecan bits. I am really making myself hungry right now…must break from writing to go have a slice….
Healthier Banana Bread
Finally…an addictive banana bread that I can eat without feeling guilty about it!!! I made this Healthier Banana Bread with whole wheat flour, nonfat greek yogurt and applesauce. The cinnamon crumb topping makes this bread even more delectable! I know what you are thinking, it can’t be as moist and delicious as oily bread with white flour. YES, it certainly can! The only downside to this bread is that I can’t stop eating it (I guess it really isn’t healthy to eat half a loaf in one day)….
Raspberry and Orange Cheesecake Parfaits
I am in love with these raspberry and orange cheesecake parfaits! They have the desired rich and creamy texture of cheesecake without nearly as much fat due to the addition of yogurt. I enjoy experimenting with different flavors and really like how the orange flavor blends with the raspberries. I was thinking about whether this could be a breakfast item and have concluded…it sure can! Fruit+Yogurt=Partially Healthy breakfast combination (nevermind the matter of delicious cream cheese). …
Lemon Creme Brulee
Oh sweet lemony custard goodness! There is just something so delectable about a medley of sweet and tangy flavors. Don’t be intimidated if you have never made Creme Brulee. It is super easy! The hardest part is separating the eggs and you can always save the leftover egg whites for a nice omelet. I borrowed my Mom’s kitchen torch like 10 years ago while I was completely obsessed with Creme Brulee after taking my first cruise. As you may know, the best part of any cruise is the food. I must have ordered Creme Brulee every other night! So after staring at the box with the torch in it for many years, I decided it was time to break it out and see if it even worked. Well…it did work after my Dad saved the day and filled it with butane. Another great perk is that I finally found another reason to use the roasting pan that takes up a ton of space in my kitchen cabinet and normally only makes a grand appearance for the holidays. I spent quite some time brainstorming ideas for different flavors and for some reason, lemon kept popping in my head. I think lemon is the perfect accompaniment and looks beautiful with fresh red berries. So go ahead and impress your next dinner guests and try this simple recipe!
