For those days when you want a decadent sounding dessert you can hold in your hand without having to actually turn the oven on, these No Bake Cheesecake Parfaits are there for you. Make these ahead so that there is proper time to chill and allow the cheesecake filling to set, top with a macerated …
Consider me biased, but this Strawberry Rhubarb Upside Down Cake is all sorts of amazing. The cake is fluffy and moist, the strawberries and the rhubarb are sweet with a slight bit of tang, and the caramel has a touch of balsamic to hone in it to bring about some extra depth of flavors. Even …
These Banana Hazelnut Cupcakes are just about everything you can ask for in a cupcake–soft, moist, full of banana flavor with a bit of crunch and earthy nuttiness from the tasted hazelnuts–all topped off with a Nutella Cream Cheese Frosting that is slightly tangy, slightly sweet, and fully as addicting and eat-it-by-the-spoonful-able as Nutella itself. …
