Flourless Chocolate Cake with Whipped Cream and Raspberries

Flourless Chocolate Cake with Whipped Cream and Raspberries


Diet, Schmiet. Some foods are worth breaking New Year's Resolutions - and this cake definitely fits the bill. Delicious, decadent, and drop-dead gorgeous, this cake is one of my favorite go-to recipes whenever I need the perfect finale for a celebratory meal.





Cantaloupe, Bacon, Raisin, and Port Salad

Sometimes desperation causes the best recipes to be created. This recipe is a definite case in point when I was short on time and ingredients and threw together a few staples I always have on hand with some perfectly ripe cantaloupe. The results were wonderful and it has become a favorite recipe.

1/2 cup tawny or ruby port
1/2 cup golden raisins
1 medium ripe cantaloupe
6 slices cooked crumbled bacon

Place the raisins in the port and let them macerate while you prepare the cantaloupe. Peel, seed, and melon ball or cube the cantaloupe. Toss the melon with the bacon and port/raisin mixture. Serve immediately at room temperature.

Makes 6 servings.
