Double Chocolate Tart

Nov 14, 2007 - This chocolate-truffle-inspired tart shows just how decadent simplicity can be. Dulce de Leche is a South American delicacy, made by cooking condensed milk into caramel -- its growing popularity means you can buy it at most stores these days. It's the perfect complement to the rich chocolate -- and the addition of flaked sea salt gives the whole thing balance and chef-like flair. - 1 Comment

Secret Ingredient - Bananas -- Banoffee Pie

Mar 07, 2007 - One of the many positives of having a brother who lived in London was that my mother became obsessed with recreating this desert that she had while she was there, banoffee pie (the name gets the celebrity couple treatment - banana + toffee = banoffee!). My mother made her version with a rich gourmet caramel sauce she bought, and I have read suggestions of using canned Dulce de Leche (the toffee is fussy to make from scratch). The pie is delicious, although I will pretty much eat bananas in any figuration! - 2 Comments
