Thank you to everyone who entered their best dessert recipes to the World Food Dessert Challenge. We received a lot of delicious recipes that will leave you eating your dessert first!  The winning recipe is from Michelle for her Ricotta Tea Cakes with Roasted Strawberries, Basil-Lemon Chantilly and Salted Macadamia Bark.

See what inspired Michelle’s winning recipe:

“Some of my favorite flavors are basil and lemon. I love to use these in sweet and savory dishes especially in the hot summer months. This easy dessert hits all the right notes with the tartness of the berries and lemon, the earthiness of the basil and the richness of the chocolate and ricotta cheese. I have made variations of these simple and foolproof tea cakes for the holidays and many family gatherings!”
