Olive Oil Cake with Sautéed Apples & Pears

Dark Chocolate and Salted Pretzel Tart

  There's something about putting together a chocolate dessert that is so satisfying (lemon desserts, too, for that matter).  For Easter lunch with my family I was asked to bring something sweet.  A cake is what first came to mind but a few days before Easter I picked up my iPad and flipped ...
