Dessert For Two
Today's site, with a special nod to Valentine's Day, offers a charming food
blog from cookbook writer Christine Lane, which focuses with effortless panache
on delightful desserts in small quantities. Gentle Subscribers will discover
tempting confections which will not utterly devastate an overall healthy diet
but instead will simply sweeten an otherwise nutritious menu.
"My name is Christina and I'm here to help you gain 10 pounds. ... No
seriously, I'm here to make your life sweeter. ... I cook for two and like most
people, I like dessert after dinner -- but most dessert recipes make enough for
8 to 10 people! I don't need 8 extra slices of cake tempting me from my
fridge. Nor do I appreciate 2 dozen leftover cookies staring at me while I'm
trying to eat a healthy breakfast. ... So, one day I started searching for
dessert recipes that didn't make so many servings. ... My search for small
desserts turned up nothing. So I picked up my wooden spoon, half a stick of
butter and set out to recreate my favorite desserts in smaller pans." - from
the website
This highly regarded and popular food blog serves up decadent desserts but of
virtually guilt free size. Relying on the modest size of the sweet instead of
what may be non-existent will power to rein in the temptation to devour an
entire pie in a single sitting, this delicious blog scrimps on size not on
epicurean flavor. Major categories include Breakfast, Cakes, Candy, Cookies and
Bars, Cupcakes, Pies and Cobblers, and even Dinners for two, which can be found
under the Recipe Index or at the bottom of the homepage. Current highlights
feature Valentine's Day M&M Cookies, Irish Cream Brownie Trifles, and Chocolate
Caramel Pretzel Bites.
