Strawberries and rhubarb combine to make a sweet, fruity filling in this cake. The crumb topping adds a little crunch; it would probably be good with some nuts sprinkled on top.

Yum, yum! Sometimes I add some finely chopped semi-sweet chocolate. These are perfect for baby showers or wedding showers. A plastic sandwich bag can be used instead of a pastry bag by filling with the...
I created this simple cookie recipe using similar ingredients as apple pie. I wanted the taste of my apple pie without the hassle of it. They came out delicious!
This is a quick and easy but so-good dessert for any time of year. My mother made it, and it brings back fond memories of growing up in Vermont, where some of the best apples can be found in the Heroes....
While certainly not light on the calorie counter, this berry fool (from the French 'fouler' meaning 'to mash') is shockingly airy on the palate. It's that contrast between the rich, fluffy cream and the...
Delicious and easy cobbler that can be made with many types of fruit. Only uses a few ingredients, but great for company! Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
Traditionally coulis is simmered in its own juices to thicken, but I wanted to speed up the process and went with cornstarch. The Grand Marnier® adds just a hint of orange flavor. This is great with cheesecake,...

This is fresh peaches wrapped in a rich flakey dough, and topped with a teaspoon of hard sauce after baked. No sugar is used on the peaches, just the sauce. Sugar free ice cream could be used instead of...
This is a heavy Bundt® cake that is not too sweet, but sweet enough to hit the spot. This my husband's all-time favorite recipe straight from his mother. I like to use baking apples sliced very thin.
I found this recipe in a newspaper clipping that my mother saved dated June 10, 1933. A light and fruity sherbet made with orange, lemon, and pineapple juices.
