The molten chocolate cake variation on the 1-minute muffin recipe was created by Linda Sue, and the Mexican variation was created by me, because I adore Mexican hot chocolate and thought that would be great flavor. I have played around with this and I think it's really, really good. I have no idea why the one rater gave it such a mediocre review, because I really think this is amazingly good for such a quick and healthy recipe. Maybe they didn't realize it was not going to be exactly the same as something made with white flour? Make this instead of having an Atkins bar or going on a chocolate binge, I promise it will sate your deep dark cravings! Careful, it's addictive so you may want to split it with someone you love! Enjoy and please do comment/rate if you make it, I love feedback. Also, check out some of my other low carb/glutenfree recipes! I thought this might make a good birthday "cake" for a low carber - if plated prettily and topped with the optional ganache, a squirt of whipped cream and some shaved LC chocolate, it would be really celebratory and won't send you into a blood sugar coma.
A great milky beverage that contains no milk!

There are many variations, but this is a basic version that satisfies my cravings. Enjoy!
We always had some variation of Mexican cakes (or Russian tea cakes or Snowballs) at Christmas so these little cookies have a tendency to brighten moods in my family and friends no matter when they are made. This variation has no nuts and has a orange flavour.
This is a cake originating in costa rica and nicaragua. Many people use it in mexico also. It isn't the best for you but is a great treat. It is very moist and is great with fruit on the top!
I was having a Cinco de Mayo party and also love brownies so decided to experiement. Here is the yummy result! very easy, too!
Ganache with a Tex-mex flair. This isn't a light recipe, but sometimes you simply have to indulge that chocolate craving. This chocolate confection is fantastic with graham crackers, cookies, ice cream, dipping fruit, as a cake frosting or just straight off the spoon.
I took Pati Jinich's recipe for piggy cookies and substituted coconut palm sugar in place of piloncillo or dark brown sugar. Coconut sugar is supposed to cause a small insulin response. These cookies are puffy and soft.
Mock Sopapillias w/ Cinnamon ice cream makes this treat taste like fried ice cream!
this is an amazingly simple dessert that taste absolutely incredible!
Classic Margarita, only a fraction of the calories (your average margarita is somewhere in the realm of 550 calories, ouch!).
Feel free to mix and match flavors of CL and Fresca, or go virgin if you like.
A Mexican ice pop made from a sorbet or sherbet base. You can substitute any fruit you like for the banana - just purée the fruit with enough liquid to make the mixture really smooth, strain to extract seeds if necessary, and taste the juice before you freeze it.
