Angel Food Cake with Macerated Strawberries
This is a cake that’s perfect for entertaining - it’s a mile high, feeds a crowd, and is best made the day before you eat it! If you’ve never had it, it’s a feather light cake that reminds me of meringue. I flavor mine with a mix of vanilla and almond extracts for just a hint of flavor. There’s nothing better on top than sweet, juicy macerated strawberries. The brandy balances out the sweetness of everything else perfectly, and the cake acts like a giant sponge to soak up all of the ruby red strawberry juices.
Chocolate Tahini Cake with Tahini and Halva Crumb Topping
And it's topped with a halva crumb topping to die for.
Dulce de Leche Brownies
Sweetened condensed milk! I turn this pantry staple into a decadent caramel and spread it over top of the brownies before they bake, creating an even more luscious dessert.

Making a Store Bought Dessert Into a Fancy Dessert
We've all seen the cases filled with sad fruit tarts, stale cupcakes and cakes that are a bit past their prime. I decided to give a classic custard fruit tart a face lift and turn it into the boujee french dessert called mille-feuille (pronounced meal foyyy, for all of the non-French speakers like myself). It's got beautiful layers of crisp, buttery cookie, soft and creamy vanilla mousse and a bright, tart berry coulis!

S’mores Macarons
Olivia is back in the kitchen to turn the tables on me, yet again! Today I'm tackling a French patisserie classic—macarons. We layer crunchy meringue cookies with soft marshmallow fluff and lightly bitter chocolate ganache. You'll want some more of these s'mores macarons!!
