Paskha (Russian Easter Cheesecake
This easy, no bake cheesecake is traditionally served during Easter in Russia and other Slavic countries. It is quick to make but takes a few days to mold in the refrigerator. It is definitely worth it!

This basic chocolate cake recipe is perfect for cakes and cupcakes. Results in a very light, moist and not overly sweet sponge.
This is a smooth, creamy buttercream that is less sweet and buttery in flavor than most frostings. It was the frosting originally used for Red Velvet Cake. It uses regular sugar instead of powdered sugar and is really easy to make.
This cake serves many and can easily be frozen and thawed for later. My kids call them chocolate squares but I like the Swedish name Kärleksmums that I liberally translated to Lovebites.
Make a lot of rice porridge so you have enough left over for this delicious Christmas dessert! Mix with whipped cream, vanilla and sugar, this chilled pudding is smooth and airy. We always serve it with fruit sauce for some sweet, tangy contrast.
There are many ways to cook caramel candy. In Sweden, the most popular are chewy or brittle knäck with crunchy almonds (like that found in Daim) and smooth, soft smörkola (like Werther’s).
The expression as American as apple pie may be true, but Swedes bake a lot of them, too! I enjoy mixing in a few peaches, inspired by pies from the historic town of Julian, California.
