Dessert Recipes

Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Cake. One of our very best recipes to use that never ending supply of over ripe bananas on your kitchen counter.

Homemade Flakies with raspberry compote & vanilla cream. A nostalgic tribute to the Vachon Flakie, one of my very favourite snack cake treats as a kid.

Blueberry Turnovers. A pre-cooked blueberry pie filling and a forgiving sweet butter pastry recipe make these turnovers practically foolproof.

Orange Strawberry Pavlova Shortcake. A sort of trifle version of a pavlova that’s combination of 2 great desserts. Ideal for feeding a crowd.

Cinnamon Roll Couronne. It’s much easier than you may think to achieve this beautiful presentation of cinnamon rolls in a showstopper centrepiece “crown” for your brunch table.

Spanish Cream. An old family recipe much like panna cotta or blancmange but more mousse like in texture. Serve with whipped cream & berries or in a trifle, especially when using angel food cake.

Too Tall Neapolitan Cake. Light vanilla cake, filled with layers of strawberry compote & custard, then covered in luscious chocolate buttercream frosting.

Old Fashioned Apple Upside Down Cake. A decades old family recipe that uses very simple ingredients to create a comfort food dessert that everyone will love; a classic Autumn dessert that’s only improved by a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Buttermilk Biscuit Cinnamon Rolls. A delicious quicker alternative to yeast raised cinnamon rolls using a homemade buttermilk biscuit dough instead.

Blueberry duff. A steamed pudding here in Newfoundland, sometimes served with dinner, sometimes as a dessert with blueberry or rum sauce.
