Ranking #1 in nearly every "favorite cookie" poll, the chocolate chip cookie is pretty much the go-to cookie of choice for both kids and grownups alike.

Fresh blackberries are hidden beneath a rich custard and topped off with the traditional bruleed sugar crust.

2 cups fresh blackberries, strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries
2 tablespoons sugar or splenda
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons low-fat sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
4 teaspoons brown sugar
Gently rinse blackberries; drain. Divide them evenly among (6-ounce) ovenproof ramekins or custard cups; set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch until smooth. Add egg; stir well. Gradually stir in heavy cream and stir until smooth.
Cook over low heat until thickened, stirring constantly, about 12 minutes.
Remove from heat; let cool 5 minutes. Add sour cream and vanilla; stir well. Spoon custard mixture evenly over berries. Place ramekins on a baking sheet.
Sprinkle each with 1-teaspoon brown sugar. Broil 4 to 5 inches from heat 2 minutes or until sugar melts. Serve warm.

What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

Creme brulee is my favorite dessert so I was so excited that we tested this recipe! Everything about it was perfect. I used blackberries (as the title suggests). If you use strawberries make sure to slice them as you want the custard to cover them.
