In a large bowl, beat the cake mix as directed on the box.

Refrigerate until serving time. Store loosely covered in the refrigerator.
Chocolate cookie cups filled with a fluffy chocolate Kahlua cheesecake. The perfect bite-sized indulgence!
This mini Kahlua cheesecake recipe should definitely be on your list of must-try treats. The creamy cheese filling is laced with Kahlua for a subtle hint of coffee flavor that pairs perfectly with the rich chocolate cookie crust.
If you don’t have a mini muffin pan, this recipe can easily be done with a regular muffin pan or even as a whole cheesecake.
Ingredients
Chocolate Cookie Cups or Pie crust :
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup Dutch-processed cocoa powder sifted
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup unsalted butter room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar packed
2 large eggs room temperature
1 tsp vanilla extract
Kahlua Chocolate Cheesecake Filling:
1 cup heavy whipping cream chilled
8 oz cream cheese full fat,softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 oz semi-sweet chocolate melted, cooled
1/4 cup Kahlua Liquor
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray mini muffin tins with cooking spray.
Whisk together flour, cocoa powders, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
Beat butter and sugars on med-high until light and fluffy (approx. 2-3mins). Reduce speed and add eggs one at a time and vanilla. Beat until combined. Add flour mixture and mix until just combined.
Using a small cookie scoop, scoop dough into muffin tins, press down to flatten.
Bake for approx. 10-13 minutes or until mostly set, but still soft in the middle.
Remove from the oven and immediately use a small glass (shot glass works great) to press firmly down in the center to create a well. Cool in pans for 10 minutes, loosen each slightly by twisting it in the pan. Cool for 5 more minutes then remove from the pan and cool completely on a wire rack.
Kahlua Chocolate Cheesecake Filling:
Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks (ideally with a cold whisk and in a cold bowl).
In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add chocolate and Kahlua and beat until incorporated.
Fold cream cheese mixture into whipped cream and pipe into cooled cookie cups. Refrigerate until set (approx. 2 hours).
If making as a cheesecake, follow these instructions… Bake in oven at 350°F for 60 minutes. Edges will likely have slightly puffed and may have just begun to turn a light golden brown and the center should spring back to the touch but will still be Jello-jiggly. Don’t over-bake or the texture will suffer, which means we all suffer.
Sprinkle with chocolate shavings or cocoa powder if desired.
Serve chilled and eat within 2-3 days. Or freeze for up to 4 weeks.

Whether you’re entertaining or making these Crab Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms for a weeknight dinner, this recipe will not disappoint. I love to serve these stuffed mushrooms over a simple shaved Brussel sprouts but feel free to serve over rice, pasta or even as an appetizer on their own.
Where to find the crab meat?
Look for pasteurized jumbo, lump crab in the seafood section of the supermarket. The regular lump crab or even claw meat blends perfectly with the sour cream mixture and goes a lot farther.
Here’s another trick… for mushrooms that’ll hold their shape when stuffed: roast them first, before adding the filling, to draw out some of their extra moisture.
The Brussel Sprouts Salad
Whoever made Brussel sprouts the new cool veggie, thank you! For a while, roasted was the only way I ate Brussel sprouts and then one day I tried the shredded brussel sprouts salad at Cooper’s Hawk and my mind was blown! It’s so simple and doesn’t require a salad dressing, just shredded parmesan cheese, lemon zest and lemon juice.
I like to use my food processor to shred the sprouts but you can also use a mandoline slicer or sharp knife. For this recipe, I also like to roast about a ½ cup of the sprouts to add a little more flavor and texture. You choose what you like! And you feel free to serve this salad alone or with my crab stuffed mushrooms.
INGREDIENTS
Stuffed Mushrooms
24 large baby Bella mushrooms (about 1 lb.)
Olive oil cooking spray
8 oz fresh lump crabmeat
¼ cup scallions chopped
6 tablespoons nonfat sour cream
¼ cup Parmesan grated
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon black pepper
⅛ teaspoon paprika
Brussel sprout salad
1 pound brussels sprouts
½ cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
Lemon zest and juice of one lemon
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
INSTRUCTIONS
Stuffed Mushrooms
Preheat the broiler, setting the temperature on high. Set an oven rack in the middle of the oven (this will prevent the mushrooms from scorching under the broiler). Line a broiler-safe rimmed baking sheet with foil.
Use damp paper towels to gently wipe the mushrooms clean. Gently twist the stems off. Spray the mushrooms with olive oil on both sides. Broil in the middle of the oven until just tender, 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Transfer the crabmeat to a medium bowl, feeling through the meat to make sure no shell pieces remain.
Add the remaining ingredients except for the paprika and mix well until fully combined.
Spoon the crab mixture into the mushrooms, dividing it evenly. Each mushroom should hold about 2 tablespoons of filling. Pack the filling into the mushrooms and pile it high.
Sprinkle the stuffed mushrooms with paprika.
Arrange the mushrooms, filling side up, back on the baking sheet.
Lightly spray them with olive oil.
Broil the mushrooms briefly, just until the filling is warm and golden, for about 3 minutes.
Brussel Sprouts Salad
Shave the Brussel sprouts using a food processor and place in a large bowl, breaking them up with your hands and discarding any tough pieces.
Take ¼ cup of the sprouts and place on a baking sheet. Broil for ten minutes until the edges are brown and crispy.
Toss the cooked and raw sprouts in a large bowl with the lemon zest and juice until coated. Let sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to allow the sprouts to soften and the flavors to combine.
Before serving, toss in the grated parmesan and taste again for seasonings, adding more salt and pepper, if needed.
This light and healthy meal, Pan seared scallops with warm asparagus and salad with orange dressing comes together in just 20 minutes.

INGREDIENTS
For the dressing
1/4 cup orange juice

2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon salt

12 scallops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 small bunch asparagus cut in about 3 inch pieces
6 cups baby kale

2 oranges peeled and cut into segments
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
1 tablespoon olive oil
INSTRUCTIONS
Make the dressing
In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, salt and pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Cook the scallops
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, heat about 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Working in batches, lightly season the scallops with salt and pepper, and sear for about 2 minutes, or until golden brown on one side. Flip the scallops and cook for about 2-3 minutes more, until the other side is also golden brown. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
Make the salad
Bring about an inch of water to a boil in a deep-sided skillet or sauté pan. When the water is bubbling, salt the water, then drop the asparagus and cook the asparagus for about 2 minutes, or until bright green. Strain the asparagus in a sieve, running it under cold running water. Set aside.
Return the skillet to the stove and heat it over medium heat. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, and drop in the kale and red onion. Stir the kale and cook for about 1-2 minutes, then add the asparagus and about 2 tablespoons of the dressing.
Transfer the asparagus and kale into bowls.
Top with scallops, orange segments and a sprinkling of sesame seeds. Serve with additional dressing.
