While digging in to a slice of cake is always a treat, a bite of chiffon cake is a different experience. A type of sponge cake, chiffon cake is wonderfully light and fluffy, with a pillowy texture that never fails to impress. The key? It’s all in the ingredients and the method, making good use of whipped egg whites and cake flour for the cake’s signature delicate texture.

I’m always thrilled to stumble upon limited-edition, unique ice cream flavors in the grocery store, especially winter holiday flavors! Cartons of peppermint bark, hot cocoa, eggnog and gingerbread ice cream bring back memories of the festive sundaes I enjoyed with my college roommates at the Friendly’s on campus. It was our way of toasting the end of another semester and welcoming the start of the holiday season.

My mom made every single one of my birthday cakes when I was growing up, and from ages 6 to 11, it was always a Jell-O poke cake. I loved the bright berry-colored stripes that ran through the cake, and the fruity flavor in each bite. Mom would slather the top with frozen Cool Whip or her own whipped cream frosting. It never got old!Poke cake with Jell-O became popular in the late 1970s and 1980s, mainly because of the 1976 marketing campaign that introduced the recipe.

Tres leches cake is a beloved dessert throughout Latin America. This chocolate version is a fun twist, packing plenty of cocoa punch into the light, fluffy cake and whipped cream topping. Like classic tres leches cake, the chocolate version features the signature sweet flavor, the ultra-moist texture and the traditional combination of milks (tres leches translates to “three milks” in Spanish). Once the cake is cool, drizzle milk over it and let it rest so the milk soaks into the cake.
