No Cream Ganache

Ganache is a simple mixture of equal parts chocolate and heavy cream. What if you don’t have cream though? Easy, cream is just milk with more butter fats so add butter. Equal milk and butter to equal the chocolate.

Chocolate Cake – Instant Pot

Feelin kinda lazy so decided to make a chocolate cake in the Instant Pot instead of in the oven. I’ve also found the baked goods in the Instant Pot seem to have an amazing amount of moisture that makes them even more decadent.

Fake’n’Shake’n’Bake

Have you ever read the nutrition label on a box of Shake’n’Bake and seen the amount of sodium in there?? No thanks, I’d like to help my ticker keep  tickin.

Yes, it’s that good. I’m also sharing a version of my guacamole recipe, for those that understand the addiction. (NOT sorry, just so you know.) This is a dip, yes…but no one is looking right now… Easiest thing in the world to make, and it takes no time at all. Blah-blah-blah, let’s do this!!!
