I made this recipe for my boyfriend on his birthday and he asked me to marry him (I did). I'm not saying for sure that the Prinzregent Torte is why Don wanted to marry me, but I've always worried that it might have been. It is a magnificent recipe that always evokes incredulous cries of pleasure from people that I serve it to. The cake is a lot of work, so I only make it about once a year, but the people that I make it for feel very special.

These decadent snacks are filled with a sweet cream and topped off with a luscious chocolate sauce.

This particular biscotti a bit of warm from the spices and adds depth to a good cup of tea in the fall. Add a bit of fruit and it makes a nice homemade gift for Christmas, good for breakfast with a coffee too.

This is the first time I have ever made bread in my life, and this recipe was really easy. I made both a long loaf and a round one and they both turned out great. Nice chewy crust on the outside and soft on the inside, and great flavor. I'm no longer intimidated of the thought of making bread. Thanks so much, great recipe!!

This focaccia turns out crusty outside and fluffy inside, the roasted bell pepper, chilis, cherry tomato and mozzarella give the focaccia amazingly delicious flavor. Eating it directly without anything else is yummy enough to satisfy your palate. This recipe is adapted from Chef Nancy, New York Times!
