Lavender Lemonade
The sweet and tart summertime favorite, infused with the rich floral note of lavender.
Peach Jam with Lavender and Honey
Peaches come into season just as my lavender is in full bloom. This recipe tastes like summer and we love it with breakfast or as a topping on vanilla ice cream! For easy peach-peeling, score the bottoms, place them in boiling water for 30 seconds or until the skin starts to pull away, and then drop them into an ice bath. The skins will pull right off.
Homemade Lemonade with Mint
The perfect quencher on a hot day. Nothing beats a zesty drink to cool and refresh when the sun is shimmering outside. Anything lemon based is ideal and here you have the option to add ginger or mint to make this even more fragrant and summery.
Crazy-Good No-Temper Chocolate-Dipped Cherries
The secret to preventing the chocolate from turning grey is to dry and chill the cherries before dipping for this recipe. Then, refrigerate again right after.
Apricot-Rose Mintshake
Mint- the cavalier.

Lemon Poppy Seed Homemade Larabars
These chewy fruit and nut bars are bursting with lemon flavor. Not only are they dead easy to make, they're healthy for you too!
Vegan Chocolate-Banana “Ice Cream”
An oldie but a goodie: Banana “Ice Cream”. This is always a hit at my cooking classes because people can’t believe this ice-creamy consistency is just bananas.
My Mother's Strawberry Jam
My mother's trick is to stir a knob of butter into the cooked jam. Her strawberry jam is always crystal clear and foam-free, so I don't mess with the recipe.
Spiced Baked Apple Chips
These are incredibly simple to make, but wonderfully healthy and delicious. Thinly sliced apples are tossed with spices and baked for a crunchy sweet treat. These are perfect for an on-the-go snack, or adding to yogurt, granola, salads and more.
Tummy Soothing Smoothie

We keep grapes in the freezer all summer for a simple and refreshing snack or dessert. This time I dressed them up with a little sugar and set them on a sweet and tangy yogurt sauce elegant enough for company!
Raspberry Lemonade Sorbet
My raspberry lemonade sorbet recipe is irresistibly creamy, sweet, and tart, and putting it together is a cinch. Fruity, fresh, and delightful--perfection!
Blackberry Coconut Sorbet
I got the idea for this recipe from a comment thread on a news website. It's a fabulous summer refresher--light and tart from the blackberries, rich and sweet from the coconut milk. And the deep purple color is stunning.
Nutty Chocolate Dipped Bananas
Who says you can’t have your dessert and eat it too? The ingredients couldn’t be simpler just chocolate, your favorite dip-able fruit and Nutcase Crunch and dessert is served! Did we mention Nutcase Crunch makes it kinda healthy too? Shhh … just focus on the chocolate.
Rhubarb Maple Sherbet
Summer has been slow to start here, so I am still harvesting rhubarb from our garden... And a neighbor just gave me some of his homemade dark maple syrup. I don't know why I hadn't thought to combine the two before, because once it struck me, it seemed like a perfect pairing. Since the weather feels like we are between ice cream (nice and rich in the winter) and sorbet (for when it is roasting outside), I decided on sherbet -- the perfect middle ground. I hope you like this recipe as much as I do -- I found myself eating the mix with spoon before it ever made it into the ice cream maker! Also note that your sherbet should be a lovely pink color, but my rhubarb isn't red (sigh), which is why mine is a more maple-y hue.
Lavender Mint Granita
A floral, herbal and lemony summer treat that brings these gorgeous lavender fields of Provance straight to my apartment. When you are stranded in the city for the entire summer, what else can you do -- if the hill will not come to Mohammed, Mohammed will go to the hill.
Easy Amaretto Pineapple Ice Pops
My love of something frozen and creamy started at an early age with afternoon visits from Mr. Jolly and his ice cream truck. My love grew stronger when I would visit my Aunt and Uncle who lived near Wrightsville Beach NC every summer. Not only were the beach visits glorious but Uncle "Doots" owned Dairy Queens! Staying up late, swimming and all the ice cream I could eat - every day was heaven. I still love creamy frozen treats and am always thinking of ways to make grown up versions of them. Using 1% milk makes me think I can enjoy one every day! Sometimes I dunk it in a tiny splash of Amaretto ~ This is so easy and so delicious I make variations on them all year round.
Orange cardamom fro-yo
My flatmate's family farm oranges here in Sicily, so we had a glut. What to do? Mix those babies up with yogurt, cardamom and honey and freeze them, of course! Yum.
Hot Love Raspberry Dessert
This recipe is so easy it’s hard to believe how wonderfully the tastes blend together with so little effort. The reason I'm submitting such an easy recipe is that it is always a crowd-pleaser. You can play with the basic amounts of each ingredient but should know that you don’t need a lot of raspberry sauce. I’ve recently found small meringues at my local food store and have topped each cup with a few broken meringue pieces. Serve this in coffee cups for a fun, easy presentation.
Two Ingredient Banana Chocolate Ice Cream
Transform a few bananas and some cocoa powder into a creamy dairy-free ice cream. My mom made this for me a few summers ago. She tried to trick me into thinking it was regular ice cream. It kinda worked!
Grapefruit-Lemon Ice Pops
A simple way of making a fun and refreshing dessert.
Fresh Watermelon Granita with Mint-Infused Simple Syrup
This recipe is simple, delicious, and offers a cool, refreshing treat for any hot summer day.
