A Few Sweets

We have had a few sweets in the last few weeks.
My son and I made a cake for my wife's birthday. We had a bag of Ghirardelli’s dark chocolate with raspberry squares leftover from some get-together, and we were not going to eat them by themselves, so we crushed them and put them as the center layer of the cake. Turned out really well; even looks good as a topping. We did the same with the cacao dark chocolate with caramel on another cake. Now I wonder what else we will think to put as filler . . . is it too late to use the Halloween candy?

On National Blueberry Pancake Day we made blueberry pancakes with a sweet

addition. I had some leftover white chocolate chips so I dumped them in the batter and the flavor of the blueberries and the chips was a nice find. Yeah, it jacked up the calories, but when you’re celebrating something so important as Blueberry Pancake Day, you have to celebrate full tilt . . . and below is my son's evidence of a tasty treat . . .

Any fun or curious sweets you've made . . . ?
