Cherries

Black Forest Pie. An easy to make creamy chocolatey and very slightly boozy version of the classic dessert gateau, in pie form! You can make it in an alcohol-free version too.

Fruitcake Loaf Cake. A richly flavoured cream cheese batter is the star of this quick, easy fruitcake in a smaller, more economical loaf size for those who don’t want or need a large fruitcake.

Christmas Plum Pudding. Bringing back a traditional favourite. A real old fashioned British favourite, with no suet and modern day tweaks to make it perfectly.

Cherry Cheesecake Brownies. An outstanding soft chewy brownie with a cheesecake centre that gets sweet glacé cherries baked into it. Another great freezer friendly cookie bar recipe.

Old Fashioned Cherry Bars. A decades old recipe that’s easy to prepare and freeze really well too. They look very festive for the Holiday season.

Peach Fruitcake. A decades old family recipe for a dense, flavourful and very moist fruitcake for the Holiday season, with instructions for soaking in brandy too.

Best Newfoundland Christmas Cake Recipes. A collection of 16 recipes for traditional Christmas Cakes from my childhood, plus new twists on tried & true favourites.

Chocolate Covered Cherry Cookies. Dark chocolate thumbprint cookies filled with rich chocolate that surrounds a sweet maraschino cherry surprise inside.

Orange Cherry Cream Cheese Pound Cake. Sweet maraschino cherries suspended in a buttery cream cheese batter that’s been infused with orange flavour. A great Christmas cake to make in advance for the holiday freezer.

Old English Fruitcake. Dark and moist with plenty of spices and packed with plenty of sweet glacé fruit. It’s been a Christmas tradition in my family for decades.
