Semolina Cake

almond meal, semolina, wholegrain

Just in time for Easter or just to celebrate the new Spring season, this simple "yellow" cake is light and moist and makes for a lovely dessert! You can "dress it up" with lots of fresh berries, or other fresh diced fruit or just serve it simply with a little drizzle of my homemade Chocolate Fudge Sauce. Either way, I have given it the Cuisinicity touch and made it healthier ... Read More »

Chocolate “Fudge” Sauce

January 18, 2016
7 Comments

Of course, it's not really a fudge sauce but it might as well be! It is dark and chocolaty and creamy and rich just like a fudge sauce should be, but not overly sweet! Notice that I don't add any sugar to the dark chocolate--it's plenty sweet as is. I love to drizzle it on cakes or cupcakes--a little is all it takes! It's delicious and so pretty too! Take a look at the top of ... Read More »

Vegan Génoise with Chocolate Ganache with a slice missing shows spongy yellow cake with chocolate between layers

A génoise is a French sponge cake, typically made with egg yolks, butter, sugar and white flour. It is a basic building block of a lot of French pastries and, just like a sponge cake, it is just perfect for a layered birthday cake! I made my génoise vegan so you'll find no eggs milk or butter in this batter. I also upgraded it the Cuisinicity way  (but of course) with a mix ... Read More »

Crème au Chocolat (Vegan)

Crème au Chocolat (vegan)

These remind me of French "Petits Pots de Crème au Chocolat" from my childhood in France! Typically, these petits Pots are made with dark chocolate, heavy cream, egg yolks and sugar.  Of course I have revamped them, Cuisinicity style, while keeping their rich creamy texture and luscious flavor.  I have done away with the heavy cream, the eggs and...even the added sugar!! The ... Read More »

Biscotti Dipped in Dark Chocolate

Biscotti with hazelnuts and almonds Dipped halfway in Dark Chocolate in a glass cookie jar

I LOVE biscotti! If you have ever had the pleasure of dipping an after-dinner biscotti in a little cappuccino in a romantic little Trattoria in Italy,  you'll feel the same way about these! These little Italian cookies are unique and absolutely delightful. They are a bit of a "production" to make, I have to admit, certainly not typical of my other recipes. The word Biscotti, ...

Fresh Fruit Clafoutis

This is a hearty French peasant custard filled with fresh mango, blueberries and strawberries. The traditional version of this wonderful dessert is made with cherries, cream, eggs, lots of added sugar and sometimes even butter as well. In this recipe, the cream & butter are done away with, the amount of sugar is reduced significantly (some has been replaced with the ... Read More »

Almond Orange Chocolate Torte

This dark chocolate torte tastes lusciously rich and moist yet it has all of 2 Tbsp of canola oil! The secret lies in the addition of the ground almonds with their healthy unsaturated oils as well as the applesauce and fat free plain yogurt. This is one dessert you will be able to “indulge” in without any guilt! It is a little more time consuming than my other desserts but it ... Read More »

Rustic Strawberry Galette

Rustic-Strawberry-Galette-Feature-Photo-3

Galettes are the crusty, free-form versions of those more sophisticated tarts or pies. They are more rustic and "rough around the edges" so you can just eat a slice with your hands--no need for forks here! I just love them! The only problem for me is that the traditional ones are made with plain white flour and lots of butter. In fact, I had just resigned myself to the fact ... Read More »
