Pumpkin honey cheesecake with a cinnamon toast crunch and granola crust finished off with a Jack Daniels whiskey salted caramel pecan sauce.

i skipped the chocolate sponge for this one, but it’s because i prefer the silky texture of just the ganache and glaze.

i’m putting this one back on the menu for the holidays!

my key ingredients:
- chocolate pâte sucrée
- chocolate ganache
- dark chocolate glaze

Matcha infused macaron shell

- Pistachio buttercream filling

- Topped with homemade caramel sauce, matcha/icing sugar dusting and crumbled hazelnuts

- Homemade caramel sauce sets very quickly, so I have to drizzle it on before it hardens

- Piping bag unsafe for hot caramel (I drizzled with teaspoon)

- I could use bottled caramel sauce, but I don't want to take shortcuts

- I used bake setting at 150 Celcius (302F) for 18-20 minutes, rotating tray halfway through cooking

Only wanted to try one, but the stuff told me buy 2 get 1 free deal. Couldn’t pass that up, so here we are with three different flavours 😆 they are so soft and fluffy, and the cream is smooth! Not too heavy I love it!!

My aunt loves desserts especially cakes but I've never baked a day in my life nor do i have an oven. It's her birthday on Thursday and i really really want to make her a dessert. I have a chocolate cake in mind with a simple topping of ganache (cause i do not have the skills to ice the cake). I am a bit hesitant since I've never baked before and I'm willing to give other desserts a try since I've made other kinds of desserts before (which did not require baking). So please drop your ideas!

I know it’s a pretty calorie-dense dessert (600 calories is crazy) and I know I'm trying to maintain my weight... But this turkish-style trilece is ridiculously good!

I had this almost every day while I was in Turkey and I regret nothing 😂 I guess everyone has a dessert they just can’t say no to, right?

I have been making fruit syrups from home garden fruits the past few years. When I boil the fruit juice and sugar mixture, I remove the “scum” from the surface. It’s actually a lovely sweet foamy substance that I hate to throw away - a little like that marshmallow fluff in a jar. This time it was from passion fruit, so the fluff was quite tart and fragrant.

Does anyone have suggestions for how I might use it?
