- 4 ounces dried peaches
- 0.5 pounds seedless green grapes , halved
- 2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon water , or as needed
- 0.25 cups small candy eyeballs

Ricotta and almond flour combine to give this cake a cheesecake-like texture. Try it with other fresh fruit if you like!
Roasted Pepper Soup
This pepper soup is simple, light, and full of flavor. I like to use a combination of bell peppers and roast them to bring out their natural sweetness, but you can make this soup with just red bell peppers if you prefer.
