Make Raspberries and Cream for Dessert

It is no wonder why strawberries and cream are a “thing” at the Wimbledon tennis tournament. The combination of fruit and cream is light and delicious. Honestly, fresh berries (strawberries, raspberries, blueberries) and sweetened cream, I have lost count of how many times I have made this dessert over the last forty years. You can find the article here! It all started with a post-graduation trip to Disneyland in California many years ago and this memorable Raspberry and Cream Dessert.

Fondant au chocolat
This melting-in-the-middle chocolate cake is such a crowd-pleaser. Steps 1 and 2 can be done a few hours in advance. Then, when you’re ready for dessert, take the batter out of the fridge and move to step 3.

This dessert is lovely and "light"-ish with a crisp crust and sweet baked apples. Serve at room temperature, if you can wait that long.

Pear Custard Pie
Easy and delicious the way a dessert recipe should be. The "pie" is crustless so in the end, it's between a pie and a custard. Enjoy!
