Vanilla wafer cookies, raspberry filling and white chocolate lighten up the traditional colour – and flavour – of the classic Nanaimo bar.
Two layers of complete indulgence make this cheesecake a surefire hit. Look for instant espresso powder (such as Medaglia D'Oro or Nescafe espresso) in most supermarkets and specialty food stores.
Bold orange and fennel add a hit of unexpected flavour to these bite-size rolls. If you like, substitute lean ground beef for the lamb. Thaw the puff pastry in the fridge overnight for best results.
This is a longtime standby recipe that my mother used to make before I was even born. You can use a less tender cut of meat (in fact I often use moose meat, though good old beef is excellent) and place it in a marinade for two days. In these economic times less expensive meat sure helps the budget. It is slow cooked, then sliced, and its swee-and-sour sauce is complemented by bland potatoes, thin slice of dark bread, and butter.
A few fresh ingredients and a bit of flaky salmon give leftover mashed potatoes a tasty new lease on life. Depending on how salty your mashed potatoes are, you might want to add an extra pinch of salt. Serve with a simple green salad for a light lunch or dinner.
Linda and James Tapp live south of Biggar, Sask., and have farmed together their whole married life. Linda, an ardent cook and baker, shared the recipe for this juicy cobbler made with a mixture of cooked and raw local Saskatoon berries. “You get more juice and flavour that way,” she says.
These brownies have become The Test Kitchen's secret weapon for parties, showers, gifts and other occasions. The combination of rich dark chocolate and a sublte crunch from chopped toffee bars is what makes them the best brownies you'll ever make.
