Caramel Apple Cake {Share the Love}
Caramel Apple Cake. Autumn is upon us with morning and evening air so crisp and clear. Air that invites you to breathe in deeply and exhale slowly. And while you do, listen to the sounds of autumn. The rustling of newly fallen leaves are a back drop to the percussion sounds of twigs snapping under foot while acorns fall from the trees.

Chocolate Lovers Pizza
Chocolate Lovers Pizza. Round 3 of Adventures in Chocolate. Week by week I’m working my way through my work family selecting someone to choose a chocolate recipe for me to make, picture, post, and deliver to them.

Dark Chocolate & Walnut Biscotti {and Coffee on the Porch}
My motivation to make Dark Chocolate & Walnut Biscotti was pure and simple. It was my appreciation for the ‘good people’ out there. You know the ones. The folks that do the little things to make your day special, never looking for anything in return.

Chocolate Rum Balls {Share the Love}
It was time for another Adventure in Chocolate. I started something kind of fun. Every other week or so I will choose one of my work-mates to select a recipe, that I then recreate, picture, post about, and deliver to them to Share the Love. This time up I chose Allan and he chose Chocolate Rum Balls.

Peach Buttermilk Cobbler {with Vanilla Ice Cream}
Peach Buttermilk Cobbler {with Vanilla Ice Cream}. I discovered several months ago and quite by accident that some people prefer cobbler over cake. It just so happened on that day I had a quart of fresh blackberries. And so I made, and we mutually enjoyed, Blackberry Buttermilk Cobbler. On this day, I happen to have 10 peaches fresh from the Farmers Market. I’ll start by making Peach Buttermilk Cobbler.

Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake {with Chocolate Ganache}
Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake {with Chocolate Ganache}. Be careful what you wish for. That’s how I felt when I was first handed this recipe. You see it had been quite some time since our last Adventure in Chocolate. I’ve been following a new healthy living routine and couldn’t quite figure out where chocolate would fit in.

Chocolate Ganache
Chocolate Ganache Topping. I completely underestimated Chocolate Ganache Topping when I set out to make this Chocolate Truffle Cheesecake.
