Incredible Millionaire’s Shortbread
This Incredible Millionaire’s Shortbread is made up of three decadent layers; a buttery shortbread crust, a unique spiced caramel filling, and rich dark chocolate to top it all off! My version of millionaire’s bars is not your traditional recipe. I added a couple of secret ingredients to create the distinctive caramel flavor and intensify the richness of the chocolate topping. These bars are small in size, but incredibly rich in flavor!
Dark Chocolate Ganache Tart
Our impressive Dark Chocolate Ganache Tart is definitely for chocolate lovers, and is surprisingly easy to make! Made with 72% dark chocolate and a walnut and speculoos (Biscoff) cookie crust, this decadent dessert is so deliciously rich and creamy that one tart can easily serve between 12 to 16 guests. This elegant make ahead dessert is perfect for entertaining! To complement the flavor and texture of this delectable dessert, serve with some homemade vanilla whipped cream!
Classic Tiramisu
Made with traditional ingredients, our Classic Tiramisu recipe is extra flavorful, and is light and fluffy as a cloud! Finished with a generous dusting of unsweetened cocoa powder, this appropriately named coffee infused “pick me up” dessert has the perfect balance of sweetness, flavor, and texture to make it worthy for any special occasion. Our Classic Tiramisu makes a festive dessert for your holiday celebration. Don’t be surprised if your guests ask for the recipe!
Toffee Caramel Ice Cream Pie
Perfect for summer weather, our Toffee Caramel Ice Cream Pie is ridiculously easy and absolutely yummy! This decadent dessert tastes sinful, but doesn’t leave you weighed down like most ice cream mud pies. A delicious light caramel swirl ice cream is smoothed into our quick and easy vanilla wafer crust. It’s topped with toffee bits, and drizzled with warmed caramel sauce just before serving. It is so delicious year round!
Silky Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie
This delectably creamy Silky Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie recipe has the perfect balance of flavors. From the sweetness of the graham cracker crust and cream cheese filling, to the tartness from the fresh strawberry topping, it may truly become one of your favorite desserts! It is the ultimate make ahead dessert for entertaining, and it’s ridiculously easy!
