I have recently been invited by the charming Jill to write a guest post for her beautiful site, Mad About Macarons… She has just created a section on her site to publish recipes that require egg yolks. The reason is simple: the more egg yolks you use, the more egg whites you are going to…
BEIJINHOS DE COCO – COCONUT KISSES
This is not an Italian recipe. It is a Brazilian coconut sweet usually served during birthday parties. Clint ate this at work as one of his ex colleagues was Brazilian and brought it to share with all the co-workers… and as always when my husband likes some food, he asks me to replicate it. I…
CHOCOLATE AND COCONUT TARTELETTES
Last year I was looking for a good chocolate tart recipe and I came across this Rich Chocolate Coconut Tart. The moment I saw it, I knew I had to try it even though the shell worried me… it looked so hard to make and so delicate. Instead it was really easy to make, so…
MARZIPAN – MARTORANA
This is a traditional Sicilian sweet made with almond meal. When my parents were kids, children in Sicily would get presents for “all souls day”. The dead people of the family were seen as “friendly ghosts” who would come back home on the night of “i morti” (“the dead”) to gift the new generations with…
QUICK COCONUT CREME BRULEE – CREME BRULEE VELOCE AL COCCO
I love all sweets with a sugar crusty top… whenever I am in Spain, I always go for a Crema Catalana and in France I must eat Crème Brulée at least once! This is my version of a very quick crème brulée-style dessert. It is one of those dishes that I came up with not…
BAILEYS ICE CREAM – GELATO AL BAILEYS
A couple of days ago, my dear friend Nat asked me to publish this very recipe. I had actually thought of posting the recipe of another sweet for Valentine’s Day, but this request gave me an idea. Why not publish both recipes? In the southern hemisphere it is still very hot, so ice cream is…
SICILIAN CANNOLI – CANNOLI SICILIANI
This is the recipe of cannoli (well, my family’s recipe!). It’s a traditional dish from Sicily and it requires very specific ingredients that are sometimes hard to find abroad… there are many Sicilian migrants here, so l am lucky enough to find almost anything. If you can’t find ricotta cheese, you can try and substitute…
