Creamy cheesecake ice cream with an apple butter swirl served in baked apple bowls. What comes to mind when you hear apple butter? Do you imagine the leaves becoming vibrant, the days getting shorter, the weather getting chillier? What about eating it? Can you think of anything other than spreading it on toast?
Walking home from work through the Mission District of San Francisco, I see many odd sights. One day it was a man casually walking his pot-bellied pig on a leash down the street.

This black forest cake is the perfect showstopper of a dessert. It combines moist chocolate cake, homemade cherry filling and mascarpone whipped cream. When I was in my 20's I traveled to Germany and I fell in love. People always ask me "what is your favorite country you have traveled too" and my reply is always the same - Germany.
