No Bake Maple Praline Cheesecake

We love cheesecakes but we are no good at baking. The idea of a no bake cheesecake is what motivated us to make our first dessert last night. This cheesecake tasted very good yet we failed to get the firmness of a regular cheesecake out of it even we put it in the fridge for over 1 hour as we were instructed. We absolutely loved eating this cheesecake, just we wish it could be firmer in texture. We wonder may be 1 1/3 cup of cold milk is too much liquid for the filling? What do you think? We think next time we will make it with 3/4 cup cold milk instead. You can click here to get the recipe.

Cup Brownies With White Chocolate Pecan Frosting

We don't have sweet teeth because we were raised in a non-sweet Asian diet. We also never cared too much for sweet stuff because we want to maintain our 4 to 6 sizes. But these brownies are, at this moment of our lives, the best brownies we ever had, they are melt-in-the-mouth yummy treats that we couldn't stop eating. We baked 24 last-night and they were all gone! We were shocked that we could do this. We normally could only take one bite of the store bought brownie or restaurant baked brownie and we felt sick to the stomach already. But these brownies tasted so good, each of us could take in several and still wanted more. We didn't have any sick feeling. We now realize brownies made with natural ingredients and the right amount of real butter are much better than those made with artificial shortenings, or whatever it is that only one bite makes us feel nauseous already. We realize there is no point in using margerine or whatever butter substitute that don't nearly taste good but only give us a bloating stomach. Click here to see the recipe for these delightful brownies. Besides, why use margerine since butter had done no harm to us, we are still in sizes 4 to 6. The secret to our slim figures is, not to over eat on a daily basis...but do enjoy the real good stuff once in a full moon.

Not Your Usual Jello: Coffee And Coconut Milk Jelly


Wow, this is a very unique jelly that I have not seen before. The look itself is impressively pretty. I haven't had this kind of desert for years. And I definitely hadn't had one like this.
