Latvian Honey Cake
This recipe is for one of the most popular Latvian cakes — it's simple and delicious! It requires a little work, but it's definitely worth it. I've made it several times, and my preparation skills are improving each time. Don't get scared away because of the sour cream, it works perfectly with the sweet honey taste. The cake tastes best after it's kept overnight in the refrigerator for the flavors to blend together.
Hot Fudge Sauce
This chocolate sauce is a great hot fudge topping for almost any chocolate dessert. My mom gave me this recipe with a note that said, "Use this sauce over brownies and vanilla ice cream to make a delicious dessert." It was a favorite of mine from college.
