Anyone interested? My wife likes the baking shows on TV and sometimes gets ideas. Other times they're from our abundant supply of cookbooks.

A chocolate apple cake. Just wonderful and moist. From "365 Great Chocolate Deserts" by Natalie Haughton.

Oh lord, dont get me started. I'm not diabetic but might as well be, because my sugar cravings are insane. Currently on a diet to get some of the covid weight off, but I am gonna make a spice cake for my wife to take to work next week, may take a pic of it when I make it.
My youngest son made these for Christmas morning. He nailed the flavor and, as important, the texture.

Yes. I made it twice, and will make it again some time soon. Recipe is super simple. I think I mentioned it somewhere in the thread, no? If not, I will find some time today to add it to the thread.

Put 15 oz of full fat ricotta cheese in mixing bowl.

Add 2 egg yolks and mix.

Separately blend the two egg whites till frothy.

Add back to bowl and mix in.

Add 1/4 cup of confectioner sugar (or regular sugar), 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 teaspoon of lemon liquor, and zest of one lemon.

Blend all together.

Pour mixture into 6" springform pan.

Place into middle of oven for 15 minutes.

Lower heat to 350 degrees and set timer for 30 minutes.

You should like it. Italian cheesecake eats much lighter than the German kind most of us are used to. It's also a more subtle flavor. Not as sweet.

Ginger lemon oatmeal cookies. My wife is still trying to work on getting certain recipes to work right at "altitude". These spread a bit more than planned, but they were really tasty:

Wife wanted to use up some "gluten free flour" stuff we had from last year when I had some "stomach issues" and the docs were trying experiments on me. So she found a recipe for brownies that turned out well enough to be edible:

Not us, at least not within a hundred miles. I think up in the big town there's a Chinese place we can get them. At least I know they have "Pocky's" there. Gotta stay away from those though, too easy to eat a whole box at once.
