Lemon Blueberry Mini Cheesecakes
With the weather cooling down, I have been on a baking kick after my summer hiatus from the oven. I recently hosted a friends dinner and wanted to make a dessert that could be prepared the day prior, but still be just as good the following day. I also wanted to try something new. After looking through tons of recipes, I decided a mini cheesecake would be a great choice I already had blueberries at home so this recipe became my pick. I am so happy I gave this a try! It's delicious and even on day 3 the cheesecakes are delicious. Pin It Now!

Chocolate Raspberry Swiss Roll
I wanted to try making a roulade on a evening when I invited my family over for dinner. I have always wanted to try one but they seemed like they'd be a lot of work for a questionable end result. I went down a rabbit hole and began looking at many different recipes. Some were meringue based, which I was not ready to try on my first attempt. I landed on this one because half of my family loves chocolate desserts, and I assumed that covering the roll with the ganache could help hide any imperfections. It turns out this was true. While you can't really see it, there is a huge crack in my cake that was perfectly disguised by the ganache and whipped cream. This is a time consuming dessert, but it tasted amazing. Between 7 of us there was only 1 slice left at the end of dessert.
