This fruity dessert takes only minutes to prepare, making it a lovely finish to a weeknight meal. Cornmeal adds a bit of crunch to the classic biscuit topping.
Classic date squares have been reimagined in this dessert featuring a sweet and sticky plum filling. Don't worry if the plums aren't red in the centres; the peel will cook down to give the filling a beautiful deep-red colour.
Brownies are everyone's favourite. We've just added a little twist of ice cream and a heavenly bourbon sauce.
The sweet-tart cranberry almond compote is tamed by the fluffy richness of the biscuits. For a twist, instead of topping the compote with a dollop of lightly sweetened whipped cream, try cr?me fra?che or whipped mascarpone. Toast almonds in a skillet over medium heat, shaking the pan often, for about 5 minutes, while the cranberry mixture is cooking.
Cooking the shallots until caramelized creates the flavour base, and their subtle sweetness naturally balances out the sharp blue cheese. If you're not a fan of blue, try extra-old Cheddar instead.
Make your own gold medal–winning curling stones by sandwiching a cool, minty filling between two soft, cakey, chocolaty cookies and topping them with a gummy handle. If the coating chocolate is a little too thick to spread, stir in a few drops of vegetable oil to thin it.
The delicate flavour of fleur de sel complements and enhances the sweetness of caramel. If the caramel is too thick to spoon into the cookies, warm it for 20 seconds in the microwave.
