Nutty Irishman with a Twist …

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

I just use it as a garnish.
But ya know what is REALLY good anytime…is all this with some hot coffee and then when you whip your cream don’t quite whip it…stiff. Leave it some-what pourable and then pour it onto the top your drink. It will float on the top and when you take a drink it will be amazing.
I do this with homemade hot choc sometimes.
The possibilities are endless with all these ingredients too. Blend them all together, add them to coffee, hot choc… I can’t drink the alcohol anymore because of the sugar… Go figure…
But once in a blue moon, I can have the hot choc and whipped cream and control the sugar. It’s the consistency of the pourable cream over the hot drink. It’s unreal…Hope you enjoy!
