Chocolate Stout Cake

Good things come in threes: this is the first of a trio of chocolate cakes that we’ll present over the next few weeks. Chocolate Stout Cake is a hot water cocoa cake in which the oil and water are replaced by sour cream and beer. Topped off with a cream cheese frosting, it’s quite an impressive cake.

A Quick and Satisfying Meal

Here’s some tasty, everyday cooking you’ll love: chicken tenders, sundried tomatoes, and pasta in a sauce made simply from half-and-half and mozzarella. Pair with with a salad and maybe some crusty bread: you have a quick and satisfying meal. Afterward, throw some blueberries and cream cheese into puff pastry.

Dark Chocolate Olive Oil Cake

To hell with decadence. This cake is immoral. Dark Chocolate Olive Oil Cake is our spin on a hot water chocolate cake, which we’ve made with dark cocoa, buttermilk, and olive oil. Frosted with chocolate fudge cream cheese frosting, with a touch of cinnamon. You’ll love the way this cake will defeat your efforts at restraint.

Trifle Improv 3

Martha Stewart’s coming over, and you polished off your croquembouche this morning for breakfast. All you’ve got is some Red Velvet brownies that are too dry to serve. Or maybe some leftover cheesecake. Well, fret no more. You can improvise a triple-chocolate trifle with whipped cream, pudding, and a little bit of cream cheese. Don’t tell her that you melted your chocolate in the microwave, though, or she’ll pack her bags and split.
