Guinness Brownies with Baileys Frosting

Guinness Brownies with Baileys Frosting

I have had this Guinness Brownies with Baileys Frosting recipe saved for a looooong time and I finally got to make it. And what better occasion than Saint Patrick’s Day? Isn’t this the quintessential Irish recipe? These brownies are amazing… so chocolatey and fudgy! The addition of Guinness only intensifies the deep chocolate flavour. They…

Ghastly Bark

Halloween is coming up again. I can’t believe how fast time flies! It feels like yesterday that I posted last year’s Halloween recipe (check out my cute shortbread and white chocolate ganache Ghosts here)… and soon we will start preparing for Christmas! Anyhow, this year I am going to share with you a tutorial on…

No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars

I made these No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars to take to a friend’s get together. I love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate and these also had an added bonus: puffed rice. Don’t you just love how crispy puffed rice is? Every time I eat it, I get transported back to my childhood,…

Kinder Cereali

Kinder Cereali

Since moving to Australia 10 years ago (!), there are many things I am not able to eat as they are not sold here. In all this time, I have learnt how to make some of these things like sofficini or pizzoccheri for example. Today’s recipe is another one of such items: Kinder Cereali. It…

White Chocolate and Violet Truffles

White Chocolate and Violet Truffles

When my parents were here for Christmas, the brought me some Violet essence that they had bought in France. I love to use flower essences in desserts. Jasmine is my favourite, but Orchid and Violet are a close second. Remember the recipe for my Jasmine and Mango Panna Cotta Shooters? And how about my Orchid…

Eggless Chocolate Salami

Eggless Chocolate Salami

I am very excited about today’s recipe! You may remember that, a few months ago, I shared the recipe for the classic Chocolate Salami. That’s the recipe I grew up eating and it will always have a special place in my heart. However, after publishing it, I got many requests for an eggless version. As…

Almond and Cranberry Bark

Almond and Cranberry Bark

I made this bark to give to my friends as part of the annual Christmas hamper. This year, I put a wedge of my home-made Panforte, some Truffle oil, my Rosemary Pine Nut Sablés and this Almond and Cranberry Bark. The perfect holiday hamper must always have some chocolate! I am sharing this recipe today…

Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

Peanut Butter Honey Fudge

There is no Christmas without fudge. I have already shared with you a few of my favourite fudge recipes: Chocolate Fudge, Salted Nutella Chocolate Fudge, Brigadeiros, Cookies and Cream Fudge and Matcha Nama Chocolates. So, today I thought of adding a new flavour to the list: Peanut Butter Honey Fudge. It is very smooth and perfect…

Halloween Ghosts

Halloween Ghosts

I can’t believe Halloween is almost here! Where did the time fly? I love this time of year… I love going trick or treating the kids and seeing their happy faces when they collect candies! And I love the fact that Christmas is around the corner. Off course, I would enjoy it more if it…

Chocolate Salami

Chocolate Salami

I am very excited about today’s recipe, as it is such a classic of Italian cooking. I cannot believe I haven’t shared it already!  Chocolate Salami is found in many regions in Italy and there are many variations to the recipe, depending on where you are eating it.  The base is always the same: chocolate…

Rose Meringue Sandwiches

Rose Meringue Sandwiches

I made these Rose Meringue Sandwiches for my daughter’s 8th birthday party.  The theme was “high tea” and as I was also making a Rosette Cake for the occasion, I thought of making rose shaped meringues.  In Italy, bakeries or sweet shops often sell meringues, plain or dipped in chocolate and I wanted to somehow…

Matcha Nama Chocolates

Matcha Nama Chocolates

I have always liked Matcha sweets, but after going to Japan, I love them even more, especially when Matcha powder is paired with chocolate. In fact, in Japan you can find a huge variety of chocolates made with Matcha, including famous brands like Kit Kat or Pocky’s… yum! When we were in Kyoto, we fell…

Lime and Macadamia Nut Bark

Lime and Macadamia Nut Bark

Can you believe that I had never made chocolate bark before??  I know, so weird, especially considering that I am a chocoholic!  In my defence, I must say that it is not something we usually make in Italy.  For Christmas, we mostly make nougat.  But bark is so good, so versatile and, let’s face it,…

Cookies and Cream Fudge

I made this Cookies and Cream Fudge to give to friends as part of this year’s Christmas hamper.  It is so easy to make and it tastes amazing.  My husband is a huge fan of Cookies and Cream anything, so he was over the moon when I made it.  But he wasn’t the only one…

Today I want to share with you a very easy recipe that l have been wanting to make for a while.  A few years ago, my husband came home from work with a couple of little “truffles”.  He said that one of his colleagues had brought them to the office and gave him 2 for…
