Chocolate Marshmallow Fondue

Happy Valentine's Day!  

I had a little panic attack when I thought I had lost this recipe.  I made this last year for dessert and the kids loved the treat as well as the idea.  We always eat by candle light in the dining room so this just added to the mood.  I serve this with brownies, strawberries, marshmallows,  bananas, pineapple and a new one addition this year, potato chips!  I have read many great reviews so why not give it a try, it is a holiday!

Yield: about 2 cups


Ingredients
12 oz. semi sweet chocolate chips (I prefer Guittard brand)
3/4 c. heavy cream
2 c. mini marshmallows
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Preparation

In a medium pan over medium-low heat, melt chocolate and cream together, stirring very regularly, until smooth. Take care to not let it scorch, and turn heat down if it gets too hot. Add marshmallows, and stir until melted and smooth. Stir in vanilla. Transfer to fondue pot and enjoy with fresh strawberries, pineapple, and bananas, or whatever fruit strikes your fancy. Marshmallows (especially homemade marshmallows!) and bites of pound cake are wonderful, too.

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Glazed Lemon Loaf Cake

Ever since getting a slice of Lemon Cake from Starbucks a few years back I have been on a quest to find a good copycat recipe.  I've tried several and they were all fine, but this cake is officially the winner.  My search is over! I seriously could not imagine a more perfect lemon cake.   Lemon flavor shines throughout the cake, but the real punch of flavor comes from the delectable glaze. The cake itself is so moist yet fluffy and tender at the same time.  It's like a ray of sunshine on a cold winter's day! 

Pumpkin Spice Donuts

I love this time of year when the temperature drops and it's perfectly acceptable to make and eat all kinds of pumpkin things! I've been meaning to try my hand at cake donuts for sometime now and these pumpkin ones were calling my name.  Unlike yeast donuts that require a few rises and fry up nice and fluffy, these cake donuts come together pretty quickly (with a small chilling period) and are more dense and moist in texture. The outside gets all craggy and crispy which is perfect for collecting all the sugary glaze.  Such a delicious combo of textures and perfectly flavored with pumpkin and spices.  We loved these!! Note: I tried making a few of these in the air fryer as an experiment and was amazed at the difference in texture.  Not in a good way.  The air fryer ones were much tougher and not craggy and crispy.  So stick with frying these in oil and you won't be disappointed.
