Hello, long-lost friends! Things have been too quiet around here for too long. The bad news is, I’ve been neglecting SugarHero. The good news is, I’ve been busy working on a project that I can fiiiiiinally share with you all! Next week I’m travelling to Denver and filming a second class with Craftsy. (Short explainer: Craftsy is a website that offers in-depth video tutorials about everything from cooking to painting to Photoshop. Last year I collaborated with them on a super fun candy and chocolate-making class, which you can learn all about here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this class, I’m moving away from candy and focusing on cake decorating. I don’t want to spoil all the surprises, but I will say that we are going to cover some REALLY cute techniques, and I’m excited to tell you more about it in the upcoming weeks! If you follow me on Snapchat<\/a>, you’ve probably seen a few of the designs already. And if you don’t follow me yet, you’d better get up in my Snapchat grill<\/a>, because I’ll be posting lots of behind-the-scenes stuff on Snapchat and (hopefully) Facebook live<\/a> while we’re filming. More to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that I’ve made my excuses and shilled my projects, let’s get down to melty, gooey, face-stuffingly good business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YOU GUYS. This grilled cheese? Has been giving me life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned above, I’ve been frantically scurrying to finish up other work and haven’t had time to make my usual over-the-top desserts<\/a>. Enter the dessert grilled cheese sandwich! It has just four component: pound cake, chocolate, raspberries, and brie cheese. Sounds simple, right? Well, sometimes the simplest things are best, because take a gander at THIS:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are not drooling at that cheese and chocolate situation, you are a monster. Picture it: soft pound cake, edges crispy from being sautéed in butter until golden brown. Melted chocolate, just oozing out the sides of the sandwich. Fresh raspberries releasing their juices, and mixing with the luscious, creamy brie cheese. Can you even handle it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Dessert<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to reinforce the cute dessert-for-dinner theme, so I served my sandwiches with chocolate-dipped potato chips<\/a> and THE CUTEST chocolate almonds that look like pimento olives. (You can buy them here<\/a>!) The potato chips are so good, they’re worthy of a whole blog post all on their own. Crunchy, salty, with just the right amount of creamy chocolate on top, they’re dangerously addicting. And the almonds not only added a cute look, but they’re tasty too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This was just what I needed after a long day in the kitchen. Not counting the pound cake, they take under 5 minutes to whip up, and at the end of that time you’ll have a warm treat bursting with chocolate and raspberry flavor. Speaking of pound cake, I had some left over from another project (and I’ve included a recipe down below), but you’re also welcome to use store-bought to save yourself some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now that I’ve made this recipe, I’m excited to try so many more combinations. Different berries, different cheeses, different flavors of chocolate (or Nutella!)….the possibilities are endless. I hope you’ll try it and put your own spin on it, too! Cheers, my dears.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
