Passion Fruit Cheesecake

Passion Fruit Cheesecake (1)Passion Fruit is my favorite fruit, but it’s exotic enough that it’s sometimes hard to find (and not cheap).  Depending on where you live in the country, you may or may not be familiar with passion fruit.  It’s a sweet/tart tropical fruit (parcha in Spanish), that is common in the Caribbean and a refreshing flavor of choice  for many.

Clementine Chocolate Cake – gluten free

Clementine Cake (4)Today I share with you a wonderful recipe for Clementine Cake.  I know, that sounds unusual, but it was pretty easy and unexpected.  The cake is really moist and not too overwhelming.  And, for those of you who care, it’s gluten free!  Honestly that didn’t even occur to me until I was mid-baking, but yay for those of you who are looking for something new that is flourless.  This cake is also one of those that tastes better the next day – if you’re lucky enough to have leftovers, that is.  Because I’m not taking my baked goods into the office anymore, I always have leftovers nowadays, and you might be in the same boat.

Continue reading

Marshmallow Peanut Butter Cobbler

Marshmallow PB CobblerIt’s something like day 742 of the shutdown, and I found flour, so I’ve been baking.  I’m running low on butter, so we’ll see how long the baking lasts.  My sourdough starter is taking forever to expand, which the interwebs claims is not a problem, and since I’ve got all the time in the world I’m rolling with it. Continue reading
