  • 1 teaspoon salt
For the cheesecake:
  • 3 cups cream cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1 vanilla bean, scraped
  • 3 drops pink food coloring
  • 2 tablespoons strawberry puree
  • ⅛ cup cocoa powder
Instructions
Make the crust:

Place 2 tablespoons of strawberry batter in the center of the chocolate batter. Repeat this process until all batter is used.

Hot Chocolate Igloo Cake

Hot Chocolate Igloo Cake
It's only logical that a marshmallow covered igloo would hide a hot chocolate cake filled with chocolate ganache inside.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Cake
Ingredients
  • 2 chocolate box cake mixes, prepared
  • 1 packet hot chocolate mix
  • 1½ cups chocolate chips
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1½ cups chocolate chips
  • 1 chocolate cake donut
  • 3 cups chocolate buttercream
  • 3 cups vanilla buttercream
  • 8 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
  1. For the cake: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease an 8-inch glass bowl and two 8-inch cake pans and set aside.
  2. Pour hot cocoa mix and chocolate chips into the cake mix. Pour into the prepared pans.
  3. Bake cakes for 35 to 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out clean. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  4. For the ganache and assembly: Heat the heavy cream and pour it over the dark chocolate chips in a large heatproof bowl. Allow mixture to sit for 5 minutes, then mix well until all chocolate is melted.
  5. Cut a 3-inch round out of the center of one 8-inch cake. Set aside.
  6. Build the cake by placing the bottom 8-inch round on a cake stand. Ice with chocolate buttercream and top with the 8-inch round with a cut out center. Level the base of the dome cake and place on top. Using a funnel, poke a hole through the top of your igloo. Ice the outside of the cake with chocolate buttercream, place a donut on one side as a door, ice it and place in the refrigerator to set.
  7. Once the cake is set, coat the cake with vanilla buttercream. Using mini marshmallows, cover the whole cake in an igloo ice cube pattern. Fill with the warm ganache, and serve immediately.

Topped with chocolate chips, cherries and jello, this dessert is packed with sweet goodness.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Dessert
Ingredients
Base:
  • 200 grams chocolate wafers, crushed to a fine crumb
  • 65 grams unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake Filling:
  • 400 grams cream cheese, room temperature
  • 400 milliliters whipping cream
  • 80 grams sugar
  • ¼ cup lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 5 tablespoons cherry jam
  • ½ cup fresh cherries, roughly chopped
  • 2 teaspoons powdered gelatin
  • 2½ tablespoon water
Topping:
  • 1 packet cherry jello powder
  • 1 cup hot water
  • ½ cup cold water
  • ¼ cup whipping cream, hot
  • ¾ cup chocolate chips, melted + extra (unmelted) for decorating
  • Fresh cherries
Instructions
  1. First, make the base of the cheesecake. Mix together the melted butter and crumbled chocolate wafers, then press them into the bottom of an 8-inch spring form pan. Then place this in the fridge while you make the filling.
  2. To make the filling, place the cream cheese in a bowl and with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sugar and combine. Then add the whipping cream, lemon juice, vanilla extract, cherry jam and fresh cherries and mix until smooth. Mix together the gelatin and water in a small bowl and microwave for 30 seconds. Add the gelatin to the filling, and mix together with an electric mixer until fully combined.
  3. Pour the filling into the cake pan and return to the fridge to chill until set (approx. 3 hours).
  4. Make the topping by combining the whipping cream and melted chocolate chips in a bowl. Allow this to cool until it is room temperature, but still liquid. In a separate bowl add the cherry jello and hot water, then mix together before adding the cold water. Refrigerate until set.
  5. Carefully remove the cake from the spring form pan by running a sharp knife around the edges of the cake, then release the sides of the pan and carefully slide off the cake.
  6. Spread the topping over the surface of the cheesecake, allowing some to drip off the sides. Top with extra chocolate chips, fresh cherries and cherry jelly and enjoy!

Hangover Breakfast Sandwich

Hangover Breakfast Sandwich
A late night out calls for an entire deep-fried Camembert cheese wheel topped with bacon jam, a fried egg and, oh, arugula — for some greens.
Author:
Cuisine: American
Recipe type: Burger
Ingredients
Bourbon bacon jam:
  • 1 pound thick-cut bacon, cut into small dice
  • ½ sweet onion, chopped
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar, tightly packed
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 1 cup bourbon
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • Deep-fried Camembert:
  • 3 cups frying oil
  • 1 whole Camembert
  • ½ cup flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 sprig rosemary, chopped
  • 1 cup panko
For the sandwich:
  • 1 egg, sunny-side up
  • 1 handful arugula
  • 1 bun, slice in half and toasted
Instructions
For the bacon jam:
  1. In a frying pan, cook bacon on medium heat for 5 minutes. Add chopped onion, and cook for another 5 minutes until onion is soft and bacon fat is rendered. Stir in brown sugar; cook until dissolved and thickened. Add beef broth and cook until all liquid has evaporated, about 20 minutes.
  2. Add bourbon and allow to reduce again. Jam should look sticky. Strain bacon through a sieve, and discard most of the fat. Stir in smoked paprika, maple syrup and butter.
  3. For the Camembert: In a heavy-bottomed pot, heat oil to 325 degrees.
  4. In one bowl, add flour. In a second bowl, add eggs. In a third bowl, add rosemary mixed with panko. Coat the camembert with flour first, then egg, then rosemary/panko last. Fry for 1 minute on each side until golden brown.
To build the sandwich:
  1. Lay out bottom bun. Top with arugula, Camembert, bacon jam, sunny-side egg and top bun.
