• zucchini bread

  

  I’m sorry I haven’t been around to see and like of all your amazing blog posts! The last 3 or 4 months, I’ve been spending a lot of time painting. This zucchini bread only happened because we had received a gift of zucchini from someone who had a lot of zucchini to give. The end […]

• chocolate yogurt cake

  

  I may have finally cracked the code! I may have gotten the right balance and proportion of ingredients for chocolate cake in a loaf pan! Finally! I think not adding too much cocoa is key, as well as not adding too much liquid. Too much cocoa may be drying, and too much liquid may end […]

• mississippi mud pie

  

  This is not a difficult recipe, it’s just a little time consuming, because you do need to give each layer adequate time to set and get firmer before adding the next layer. If you did not wait to let it set, you may get messy results. After looking at a bunch of different recipes online, […]

• chocolate raspberry layer cake

  

  Truth be told, the three layer mini cake I made a few weeks ago on my IG was just a practice cake! This is the cake I really wanted to make, I just didn’t have the sardine tins yet! I love the oval shaped aluminum cans sardines are often packed in, but we almost never […]

• healthier chocolate cake

  

  This chocolate cake has a few unusual things about it: There is a fair amount of oat bran in it. It also uses two apples that you puree with some molasses and coffee first. Lastly, there are a few healthier substitutions that keep it from being too decadent: whole wheat flour instead of cake flour, […]

• mochi chocolate brownies

  

  I finally had to try it for myself. It didn’t disappoint. These brownies are nice and soft but with an elasticity and chew that you just can’t achieve when using regular wheat flour. Just make sure you are using Mochiko Sweet Rice Flour from Blue Star Brand from Koda Farms. If you can’t find that […]

• Australia’s most-loved chocolate brownies

  

  Lately, I’ve been really noticing the various plants and trees in my neighborhood that have chocolate colored leaves. I don’t know why, but it really fascinates me! One such plant/shrub that is quite common in the Pacific Northwest, is called Japanese barberry. This is just a small snip of a branch from a fairly large […]

• radiokaka (radio cake)

  

  There is a Swedish confection made by simply melting chocolate with some coconut oil and then layering it with thin biscuits in a mold to let it cool and create a loaf and then slicing it so that the resulting product resembles the face of an antique radio! Pretty cool, huh! As soon as I […]
