December 19, 2008
Just like the raw date-and-nut bars you buy in the health food store, only fresher and tastier!

Marbled Halvah
August 8, 2008
This high-calcium treat is common in Middle Eastern kitchens. Made mostly of tahini (sesame paste), this is a great high-energy snack! I’ve created a version here with a chocolate swirl, but you can also leave it plain, or add chopped pistachios or dried fruits if you prefer.

Chocolate-Covered Caramels
February 27, 2008
Just because you can’t have milk or butter doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy rich, chewy caramels, studded with cashews, pecans or any other nut of your choice-and enrobed in dark chocolate. Great for special occasions or gifts!
