Fudgy Raspberry Brownies are so perfect for your Valentine! However the inspiration to create these came from slightly more down to earth passion!

We love camping all that outdoorsy fresh air and relaxation. Being slightly organised, I generally do a bit of a bake to take along with us. A slice of something tasty to have with a cup of tea while watching the stars on a clear, dark night; pure primal bliss!

This year preparing for our camping trip was no different and I baked up my Banana and Coconut Bread. But I also started thinking about the amazing brownie I had at my friend Dawn’s Pure Food Kitchen. While I have already blogged a Chocolate Brownie recipe with chocolate chunks, I was after something similar to Dawn’s which had the taste of berries along with the fudgy chocolaty brownie taste.

My challenge was that using my old recipe if I was to add more liquid by adding the raspberries, I could end up with a Chocolate Raspberry smoothy! So searching the blogosphere I found that the best way would be to drop some of the liquid (eggs) then I should be able to add the raspberries.

The lovely people at Wordpress started my New Years day off with the 2014 WordPress Annual Report for Paleo with Cream. It was very cool to have Paleo with Cream reviewed and I am happy to say the report card came up trumps! So indulge me as I reflect on 2014 before we say “that’s a wrap” and head on into 2015.

Paleo with Cream was created as a place my family and I could easily find my growing collection of healthy, Primally Inspired, paleo-ish, Low Carb, High Healthy Fat, whole food, clean eating recipes. Some of these are my own, some I have tweaked and many are my favourites from other blogs.

Then something happened; Fabulous Followers, Perfect Poppers In and Casual Passers By. All of you deserve a virtual hug and a big thanks for taking the time to visit, to comment, to share and to cook-up what you have found here. Your visits inspired me to create more yummy recipes, tasty treats and to post them here.

So then, let’s do a recipe round up for 2014 and check out the first 2015 recipe!

One of my favourite summer tarts of all times is Strawberry Custard tart. I used to enjoy these in the old days; short sweet pastry, sweet custard and sweet strawberries – ahh, there seems to be a similar theme happening here!

Now that I don’t eat or cook with grains or refined sugar I have been thinking about how to repurpose these not so nice ingredients to make a healthy treat for the holiday season.

Well, with a few tweaks to a paleo pastry recipe and some friendly changes to the basic Creme Patisserie recipe my tart desire has been satisfied.

As well, I have a whole family of converts to this tasty dessert as the first tart disappeared in a twink. The second tart made for Christmas day only lasted a bit longer because my son had created his take on the Mixed Berry Cheesecake, so we had two desserts!

I hope you will give this a try and you don’t need to wait for summer. If fresh berries are out of season then use frozen berries.
