Chocolate scotch clusters/8 recipes

Had some pumpkin puree and cream cheese on hand, wondering if I could make a dessert that had these two ingredients and chocolate. Found some recipes that almost fit my thoughts, then combined my own ideas, here these delicious cheesecake bars are. They were absolutely delightful and only lasted a few hours...

It's the season of Swiss chard and kale. We got lots of these fresh leafy greens from our CSA farm, and I was trying to come out an idea to use them up, surfing the internet, found a recipe in New York Times, it's a chard and feta phyllo tart. Definitely got the inspiration, I used both chard and kale, instead of feta, I used cheddar; and I sauteed some fresh mushrooms and added some toasted pine nuts, which worked very well. Also, I used a pie plate instead of a tart pan, and it was a great success, absolutely flavorful and delicious. The phyllo crust came out flaky and crispy. Have definitely become one of my signature recipes :)

Easy to make, very tasty.

These cherry cream cheese bars were divine. The cream cheese added the rich creaminess; I made my own cherry pie filling, which was packed with cherry flavour and not super sweet, also did a few changes to make these bars healthier (see the linked recipe below) but still decadent.

In this recipe, we use whole wheat pastry flour and all purpose flour, reduce the amount of the sugar, let the cookies appear much more healthy.
