This chocolate trifle recipe was given to me verbally by a friend years ago. Enough time has passed that I can’t actually recall if the way I make it now was the original directions or how I’ve adapted it over the years. Either way it is a yummy dessert with layers of brownie, chocolate mousse and whipped cream with Skor bar through out. This is one easy dessert. There are a couple steps, but not a lot of baking or skill required.

I live with a lemonade enthusiast. She’s little, but she’s mighty. When it’s too warm for the hot chocolate, bring on the lemonade! There used to be a local fast food joint that would have cheap, frozen lemonade in the summer months that was wildly popular with said youngest child. Sadly they have not offered it for some time now. So I figured I better learn to make some myself.

Gluten free coconut cream cake has been my go to dairy and gluten free cake, whenever the occasion calls for it! It’s light as a cloud and creamy. The coconut, vanilla and pillowy marshmallow frosting pair exceptionally well together.

Not only is this delicious pizza sauce that comes together in far less time than it takes the dough to rise, it uses up any leftover canned diced tomatoes I often have in the fridge. Since not all recipes call for an entire 28 ounces of diced tomatoes, I often have a cup or so left in the fridge. Which makes this sauce even more of a breeze.

This recipe is not just memorable, but both easy and simple. Not to mention delicious. I suspect it is the addition of rice flour and not just the use of all purpose flour that helps make for the delicate crumb and consistency.

This delightful apple crisp has the perfect fruit to topping ratio for my liking. Meaning it is not too heavy handed or soupy on the fruit base, and every bite gets fair billing of topping and fruit. And the topping is delightfully crunchy thanks to the rolled oats and chopped pecans. And crisped up by the butter and brown sugar.

Cranberry cinnamon buns are a fantastic way to use up that leftover cranberry sauce. They are delicious with that sweet and tart flavour and just a hint of ginger from the sauce. And nothing like making something delicious, instead of leftovers going to waste!

Roasted tomato sauce is a staple for me. Life is better when there is some of this pasta sauce in the freezer! Somewhere, many years ago, what started from a recipe, evolved into this delightful pasta sauce as it is today. Something I just make. But in an effort to create recipes for my girls to use and have themselves one day, I have gladly made the effort to photograph and write down my methods into a simple recipe.

Amazing, simple and delicious pickles. We have been tweaking and perfecting this garlic free dill pickle for the past couple years. They were delicious to begin with, but now they are perfection!

Easy, peasy lemonade! Make a quick, refreshing glass of lemonade without the need of a simple syrup. My youngest loves lemonade. Especially on a hot day. But I rarely have simple syrup on hand. So rather than create a grainy glass of lemonade or a whole jug, and a sore hand from squeezing lemons. I have found an easy way to just whip up a single serving in glass.
