Sweet Tooth

 Does your sweet tooth speak to you morning, noon, and night... tempting 
you with thoughts of sugary goodness?  Well, it's time to give in.
Give in to smooth and creamy melted chocolate.
Churros anyone?
 Give in to silky smooth caramel delights.
So many flans.  So little time.
 Give in to spice.
Cinnamon Frosted Brownies and Spicy Chocolate Sauce will do just fine.
Give in to fruity banana sundaes topped with dulce de leche.
What are you waiting for?
Stop fighting your sweet tooth!

This week is the time to let your sweet tooth be your guide. Make and post your Sweet Tooth recipe on or before April 15th. Don't forget to link up your post with Mr. Linky below so we don't miss your fabulous creation.  If you're new to IHCC, please see our Welcome page for more details.  Also, please leave a comment after linking.

  11. I was very sweet this week ;-) making a delicious dairy-free/brown rice version of Rick's Classic Mexican Rice Pudding with Cinnamon and Dried Fruit (Arroz con Leche Clásico) and using my first raw sugar cones to make Miel de Piloncillo, a syrup to drizzle on top. Yum!

  12. I agree I want to try what everyone made! I'm in love with Ricks recipes, especially his dessert recipes, holy cow are they amazing! I had fun making the impossible cake and especially the Cajeta, it will be a regular here from now on.

  17. Natashya- I have had some mediocre churros before at festivals and such, but never had the real thing! Yours look delicious. I bet they were gone in a flash.
