This 3-Layer Dessert Will Make You Want To Slap Your Momma!

If you’re looking for a dessert that’s going to sweep you and all your guests off your feet, I guarantee this is it. I’ve never had anything nearly as delicious as these bars with such a funny name; nanaimo. I don’t know what that means but I think it might be “the heavenly dessert bar that will pamper your taste buds and make you sing hallelujah”!

Even though you need three different layers for this dessert, it’s not that difficult to make. The instructions are very straight forward and the end result is definitely worth the effort.

When you’re making the bottom layer, be careful so that you don’t add the egg when the cocoa mixture is too hot. If it seems too hot, let it cool for a while first or the egg will curdle. Another trick for it would be to slowly beat some of the cocoa mixture into the egg first, a little at a time. Trust me – that’s the only tricky part about this recipe!

Quick Tip: Try Digestive cookies instead of graham crackers!

Who Would Have Thought You Could Make Nutella At Home?

If there’s one thing in this world I can’t live without, it has to be Nutella. Apart from my husband, of course – although I would have a hard time deciding between the two, haha! The world famous concoction is so popular that you can probably get it pretty much anywhere you travel these days. And I’ve heard people refer to all kinds of chocolaty and nutty spreads by that name! I have to say, to me Nutella is one of a kind – but this homemade copycat recipe comes pretty darn close!

I was so surprised when I first tried this. I wasn’t expecting this to have such an authentic flavor that even I, the biggest Nutella fan in the world, might not know the difference between this and the original.

The best thing about this is that I can start experimenting with all kinds of special flavors. You only need to tweak the recipe a tiny little bit, to get completely new aromas. That is, of course, if you’re willing to make changes to the real thing. I intend to give plenty of tweaks a try – but for now I’m just happy that I can make my own Nutella and be 100% sure of what goes in it!

Quick Tip: Want to try a special twist? Add a pinch of cinnamon!

There are a lot of things in this world and in my life that I could do without, but chocolate isn’t one of them.

Oh my goodness, I am addicted. I love any kind of chocolate; dark, white, milk chocolate, filled chocolate bars, chocolate with chili, puddings – any kind! But if I’m being completely honest with you, there is nothing that makes me happier than a huge slice of chocolate cake! Preferably with chocolate frosting, too! A cup of dark roast coffee is its perfect companion.

It has been a long road to find the world’s greatest chocolate cake recipe, but I think I’ve come really close with this one. I’ve served this at so many parties already, and it has always been a huge success. One time, this literally disappeared in 10 minutes – and I’m not even exaggerating! People came back for a second slice immediately as they had gobbled up the first one.

All this talk about chocolate has made me hungry… I think I’m going to make this cake for dinner! You know; because I can!

Quick Tip: Instead of chocolate buttercream, you could use store-bought frosting.

Take a big bite out of dessert when you whip up this chocolate turtle Texas sheet cake. Rich, moist cake topped with nuts, chocolate chips, and fudgy frosting are some of the ingredients that embrace this to-cool-for-school cake. It’s big, it’s TASTEE, and it’s perfect for parties.

If you need a larger-than-life dessert to tote to your next church potluck, graduation party, or family gathering, this is the cake to make. There will be fudgy grins all across the room so make sure you pack plenty of napkins. This Texas sheet cake is massive for a reason: everyone comes back for seconds!

I am a huge red velvet fan. And when I say “huge fan”, I mean it in a way that I make red velvet cake at least once a month. I just can’t help it! I know, I know – it’s basically just chocolate, but coming from the South we love red velvet. Especially when done with cream cheese! And you guessed it – the secret ingredient in these red velvet brownies is cream cheese. You can’t go wrong with that! It makes them super yummy and goes really well with the brownie texture.

You also get that beautiful, marble-like color that will make these brownies the center of attention at any party. These are going to be a big hit wherever you do them, be it just for dessert or for a potluck or tailgate. Be sure to set aside a couple of pieces for yourself – they will be gone before you know it!

Trust me. I set these brownies out on the counter to cool and went upstairs to take a shower, right? When I returned to the kitchen half the pan was gone!
