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.





Pureed Sweet Potatoes in a Won Ton Basket

"this is a beautiful way of presenting mashed sweet potatoes"

Won ton wrappers
1 small sweet potato
Olive oil
Sour cream or whipping cream
Kosher Salt
White pepper
Fresh thyme leaves for garnish

Preheat oven to 375° degrees F. Place one three-inch won ton wrapper, sprayed with olive oil, in a sprayed miniature muffin tin; gently fit it in using a clean wine cork or similar. Take a second sprayed won ton wrapper and place it over the first one but turn it slightly (a quarter turn) so that you have eight (8) points sticking up from each muffin cup. Bake for 7 minutes. NOTE: These can be made a day ahead, covered, and stored at room temperature.

Peel sweet potato, cut into chunks, and boil in salted water until very tender. Drain and mash with a small amount of sour cream or whipping cream. Season with salt and white pepper. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves and place one on each individual plate and serve.
