Nutella pound cake is unbelievably moist from the rich chocolate-hazelnut spread added to the batter. The cake is especially good with coffee ice cream.
This Zesty Lemon-Raspberry Swirl Pie recipe contains honey maid graham pie crust, miracle whip dressing, cool whip whipped topping, jell-o lemon flavor gelatin, raspberry preserves and more.
The inspiration from this cake came from Tartine's pumpkin tea cake. I wanted to make a lighter, cake-ier cake, closer to a dessert you'd eat at a dinner party than to a quickbread you'd eat for breakfast. The frosting recipe is based on my idol Dorie Greenspan's Tangy Cream Cheese Frosting.
Here's a recipe inspired by an idea from my good friend and baking colleague Dawn Woodward of Evelyn's Crackers. You start with brownies and then top them with a swirl of sweetened tahini that gives a delightful nutty depth of flavor and richness. Be sure to use untoasted sesame oil in the batter; the dark, toasted kind would be too strong.
