Gluten-free Pumpkin Spice Latte Cheesecake recipe

Some of you will remember that last year I entered Kraft Canada’s “Real Women of Philadelphia” contest. Despite my best efforts, I was not victorious in that contest.

Gluten-free Cherry Chocolate ‘n Nut Blondies

I love simple recipes for bars or squares, simply because it takes less time than making cookies. You just put it all into the baking pan and put it in the stove. No more work needs to be done, you don’t have to change out pans, let things cool, etc. Just mix it, dump it, [...]

Gluten-free Chocolate Pudding Cake

You’ve all been in this situation before. The one where you need dessert FAST. Maybe a friend popped by unexpectedly, and you’d like to serve something. Maybe you need a chocolate fix, and we know you have to satisfy that one fairly quickly, or it’ll bother you forever. Or, maybe you just like warm cake [...]

Gluten-free Blueberry Mango Crisp

What do you do when life (or rather, being in the grocery store at the right time) hands you half price blueberries? You find things to bake. But while looking for things to bake, you eat them by the handfuls. Blueberries are such a great fruit; they are full of all sorts of things that [...]
