The Recipes
Desserts

Baking cakes and cookies requires exact measurements, perfect technique, and a correctly calibrated oven. Oh, and weather conditions can have an impact too. Bread and quick breads are a little more forgiving.

I CAN bake; I just don't love to do it often. I usually reserve baking cakes for holidays; I make quick breads like banana or zucchini when I'm in the mood. 

So over the years, I have developed and collected dessert recipes that don't depend on exact measurements and are easy to make. My favorites don't require baking, are dairy-free (so parve), and can be made or at least set up ahead of time.
