Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Molten chocolate cakes became famous for a reason: they're cakey on the outside with an irresistible center of warm dark chocolate flowing through the middle. The first time you try one, it may seem like magic, but this recipe is actually quite easy to make and ready in under an hour.
Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Sandwiches

This recipe produces a soft chocolate chip cookie which is perfect for making cookie ice cream sandwiches. You do not have to chill this cookie dough! For best results, I recommend using mini chocolate chips and freezing the assembled sandwiches for at least 3 hours.
Anna Olson's Chewy Chocolate Brownie Cookie

These more-ish cookies have a lovely crackled satin surface that looks just like a well-made pan of chocolate brownies and they have a chocolate flavour that’s just as intense due to the proportionately large quantity of chocolate in the recipe. Get that glass of cold milk ready! We may just have a plate of these on March 25, 2023, when Anna comes to Relish to launch her new cookbook - Baking Wisdom.
Mary Berg's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake with Cornflake Crunch
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
A happy accident while grocery shopping led to the surprise star of this cake. While perusing the baking aisle looking for peanut butter chips, I hastily grabbed a bag of butterscotch instead. Typically, I find butterscotch chips cloyingly sweet but, with the cornflakes, peanuts, and extra sprinkle of salt, oh my gosh, so good. While either will work, this is just further proof of my belief that there are no mistakes in the kitchen.
Rose Murray's Raspberry Nanaimo Bars
Posted by Donna-Marie Pye on
Not only is the origin of Nanaimo Bars a hot topic of debate, the bars themselves are still hot as a favourite Canadian treat. Since the 1950's, endless variations have included Minted, Grand Marnier, Cherry, Pina Colada, Mocha, Peanut Butter and Orange. I have not seen a Raspberry Nanaimo Bar, and found that raspberry liqueur added a touch of elegance to this familiar three-layered bar cookie.
