Steps:

• Generously grease a 9-by-12-inch metal cake pan with butter, making sure all the sides and corners are greased. Combine the butter, sugar, vanilla and kosher salt in a medium (10- to 11-inch) pot or Dutch oven, such as Le Creuset. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter melts. Continue cooking for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring frequently with a wooden spoon, until the mixture turns a pale golden color. Continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture turns a deep caramel color. (Be careful, it will be extremely hot!) Immediately pour the mixture into the prepared pan, tilting the pan to distribute it evenly. Set aside to cool for 5 minutes, then use a paring knife to score lines in large irregular serving pieces. Allow the toffee to cool for 5 minutes, then retrace the lines you drew with the paring knife.
• Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water (see Cook's Note). Pour the chocolate over the toffee, using a spatula to spread it evenly. Immediately sprinkle on the cashews, pistachios, ginger and cranberries so they're evenly distributed. Sprinkle with fleur de sel and set aside at room temperature for at least 2 hours, until the chocolate is completely set. Break into pieces along the scored lines and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F Grease two 8" round cake pans and line with waxed paper.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Cream shortening, sugar and eggs on high speed until light and fluffy.
• Add banana and vanilla. Add dry ingredients on low speed, alternating with buttermilk, mixing lightly after each addition.
• Stir in grated chocolate. Spread batter evenly in greased pans.
• Bake at 350F for 30-35 minutes. Cool 10 minutes, then remove from pans and cool completely on wire racks.
• Frosting:.
• Beat all ingredients together at high speed until smooth and light. Use just enough to make a spreading consistency.
• Frost cake layers. Decorate with chocolate curls.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using a pencil, draw an 8-by-10-inch rectangle on a piece of parchment paper. Turn the parchment paper over so the pencil mark doesn't get onto the chocolate and place it on a sheet pan.
• Place the pistachios in one layer on another sheet pan and bake for 8 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• Place three quarters of the white chocolate in a heat-proof glass bowl and put it in the microwave on high for 30 seconds. (Time it with your watch for accuracy.) Stir the chocolate with a rubber spatula, return it to the microwave for another 30 seconds, then stir again. Continue to heat and stir in 30-second intervals until the chocolate is just melted. Immediately stir in the remaining chocolate and allow it to sit at room temperature, stirring often, until it's completely smooth. (If you need to heat it a little more, place it in the microwave for another 15 seconds.)
• Pour the melted chocolate onto the parchment paper and spread it lightly to fill the drawn rectangle. Sprinkle the top evenly with the cooled pistachios, cranberries and apricots. Press the nuts and fruit lightly so they will set in the chocolate. Set aside for at least 2 hours until firm or refrigerate for 20 minutes. Cut or break the bark in 16 pieces and serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Place finely chopped chocolate in small heatproof bowl.
• Set over warm water on low heat (water should not touch bottom of bowl).
• Stir very frequently until almost melted. Remove from heat and hot water; stir until smooth, pressing out any lumps with back of spoon or a rubber spatula.
• In small saucepan over low heat, heat cream just to a simmer, stirring frequently.
• Remove from heat; all at once, add about two-thirds of hot cream to melted white chocolate.
• Gently stir to incorporate, then beat or whisk until smooth, scraping bowl as necessary with rubber spatula.
• Gradually stir in remaining cream.

Steps:

• Peel bananas and cut in half. Place popsicle sticks inside bananas and put on tray with parchment paper.
• Freeze for 1 to 3 hours, depending on how firm you want your bananas to be.
• Heat white chocolate chips in microwave at 30 second intervals until liquified.
• Coat bananas in white chocolate and sprinkle with rainbow sprinkles. Chocolate will harden so move quickly! Serve immediately or set aside and freeze for an additional 10 minutes.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Grease and line a 2lb loaf tin with baking parchment (allow it to come 2cm above top of tin). Mix the sugar, flour, bicarb, cocoa and chocolate in a large bowl.
• Mash the bananas in a bowl and stir in the whole egg plus 2 yolks, followed by the oil and milk. Beat the egg whites until stiff. Quickly stir the wet banana mixture into the dry ingredients, stir in a quarter of the egg whites to loosen the mixture, then gently fold in the rest. Gently scrape into the tin and bake for 1 hr 10-15 mins, or until a skewer inserted comes out clean.
• Cool in the tin on a wire rack. To make the icing, melt the chocolate and soured cream together in a heatproof bowl over a pan of barely simmering water. Chill in the fridge until spreadable. Remove cake from tin, roughly swirl icing over and scatter with the banana chips.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Coat a 9-inch fluted tube pan (such as Bundt®) with cooking spray.
• Mix bananas, oil, and eggs in a bowl until fully combined. Add cake mix and blend thoroughly using an electric mixer. Stir in chocolate chips. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes.
• Let cake cool completely, about 1 hour 30 minutes. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar.
