Dark Chocolate Bark with Pistachios





My dessert bar is taking shape for my Christmas Open House tonight! I made this delicious bark in a short amount of time. This is super easy! Using the Lindt bars, there is no need to temper the chocolate.

Chili by JJ




The best tasting easiest Chili I have made. This is going to be my 'go-to' chili recipe from now on. Basic chili — but very good. I prepped in the morning after the "hubster" announced he would like chili for lunch. I used the beans I had in the pantry, so, use what you have! If you want more kick, add a chopped and seeded Serano pepper or some hot sauce. This chili was even better the next day!

Chocolate Chip Biscotti





I made this as a take away gift at one of my parties. I took the base recipe from "Joy of cooking" and added chocolate chips. I like to dunk it into my tea, but you could dunk into coffee or hot chocolate!

Pumpkin Muffins

 


I like to make these delicious pumpkin muffins when we are out on a motor coach trip for a quick breakfast on the go. They can be made ahead and frozen, and you can reheat them quickly and easily for those mornings when you’re ready to get out there and adventure. Or for a quick breakfast on your way out the door to work or school.

Spiced Pumpkin Roulade with creamy grand marnier filling




An elegant finale to the meal; the cake has a light texture, and the filling provides a creamy texture with a hint of orange.  This pumpkin roll cake is great to keep in the freezer for a quick dessert for family or unexpected guests, to take to a gathering or to give as a yummy gift. 

My spiced pumpkin roulade is as pretty to look at, as it is delicious to eat! It is a perfect dessert for entertaining at Halloween, Thanksgiving or Christmas!
