Some red and yellow food coloring spices the cheesecake up for Halloween! I’d also like trying to add pumpkin spice at some point since pumpkin and chocolate is such a good combo… check back in 2023! These dense brownies are that delectable melt-in-your mouth texture and complemented by a sweet and light cheesecake. If you’re…
These cupcakes are really good and moist and the perfect sweetness! If I could make any chocolate cupcake for myself, it would be this one. Amazing plain, and excellent with some Simple Chocolate Icing! (If you are looking for a quicker one that doesn’t require a food processor, try my Quick Chocolate Cupcakes recipe!) Total…
These have a similar mousse-like texture as the Bean Brownies, but I actually prefer the taste of these. They’re really good right out of the refrigerator or warm with ice cream. This recipe is great for dark chocolate lovers — if you’d like sweeter brownies, use milk chocolate and/or add a few more dates. Total…
These are chocolatey with just the right amount of banana.

Makes about 12 muffins. Materials: 1 mixing bowl; measuring vessels; muffin tin.…

These are definitely a bake-ahead brownie too–they’re better the next…
This is dark chocolatey bread (not cake) unless you add chocolate chips. As always, if you’d like to start with a sweeter version, I’d recommend adding an extra form of sugar (granulated, dates, banana, maple syrup, etc). But it’s great as is! Total time: 1 hour 15 mins. Materials: Mixing bowl; processor; measuring vessels; loaf pan. Missing…
Mousse is a family favorite and reminds me of Christmas at my grandmother’s house (she always put in way too much liquor). This recipe is quick and always successful (as long as the egg yolks don’t scramble by accident!). Total time (including chilling): 1.5 hours. Makes about 8-12 dessert cupfuls. Materials: Stovetop pot; 2 mixing…
Makes enough to thinly coat a cake layer (such as Almond Orange Olive Oil Cake) or a tin of cupcakes (such as Buttermilk Chocolate Cupcakes). Scale accordingly. Total time (including cooling): 10 min. Materials: 1 measuring cup. Ingredients: Instructions:
