Eggless ricotta carrot cake

February 21, 2013 by Roxana 35 Comments

An easy recipe from eggless ricotta carrot cake.  The ricotta cheese and shredded carrot make this cake soft and tender with a spicy kick from the cinnamon, nutmeg and ground ginger Carrot cake is one of those cakes I rarely make, for obvious reasons : there’s no chocolate involved. With chocolate bags and bars overflowing my pantry it’s always easier to whip…

Velvety ricotta cheesecake mixed with crushed peppermint candy and topped with a layer of white chocolate ganache, Christmas candy and sprinkles.

Eggnog cupcakes with chocolate cream cheese frosting

December 15, 2012 by Roxana 18 Comments

Last year it was the first time I tried eggnog. I wasn’t sure what to expect but I wasn’t impress. I didn’t feel it was something I see myself drinking while chatting with my friends and family and having a great time. But I love baking with eggnog. I love the nutmeg sweet flavor it gives to baked goods. I have tried…
