Mini Berry Tarts

This is a great, quick little dessert. If you can't find speculoos (delicious French/Belgian cookies that taste like a mix between a graham cracker and a ginger snap) you can use graham crackers, or ginger snaps. The crust with the speculoos and browned butter is delicious, and perfect with the tart berries and slightly sweet whipped cream.

Salt-Crusted Baked Potato with Garlic Whipped Cream Yogurt

I was planning for steak for dinner and hadn't had a baked potato in a while. I wanted to see if there was something I could do to jazz it up. I saw a recipe for a salt crusted baked potato which sounded easy and great, and also saw one for a whipped cream-Greek yogurt mix. I thought that would be great on the potato, but wanted to take it a step further and add some garlic. (Garlic and yogurt go so well together - tzatzizki.) I didn't want it to be as sharp of a garlic taste as tzatziki, so I steeped the cream with garlic. Wow! New favorite condiment. It's light and creamy and has a really sweet, garlicky flavor. Perfect baked potato topper.
