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.





Easy Herb Cheese Dip

Need a quick dip in a hurry? Here is the perfect one that people always go crazy for. It always amazes me how many people ask for the recipe for this dip when I serve it when it is so very simple. If you do not have creme fraiche you can substitute sour cream. However, do not use dried herbs in this dip as they cannot be substituted. You can use your favorite variety of herbs in any proportion to equal 1/4 cup if desired.

8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
2 tablespoons creme fraiche
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chervil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

Beat all of the ingredients until well blended. Serve at room temperature with crudites, crackers, bread slices, or potato chips.

Makes 6 servings.

Preparation Time: 5 minutes
