As World Nutella Day is just around the corner, I thought of putting together a roundup of my favourite Nutella recipes. Hopefully this will give you a few ideas on what to make to celebrate World Nutella Day. Grab a spoon and dig in! Here goes MsM’s Nutella Recipe Roundup for 2017 (click on the…
Leftover Buttercream Cookies
I loooove today’s recipe: Leftover Buttercream Cookies! As you know, I hate to waste food and I love recipes that transform leftovers into new amazing dishes, and this one is a fantastic idea!
Double Chocolate Cupcakes
I made these Double Chocolate Cupcakes for my youngest daughter’s birthday party in December and they were a hit with both adults and kids alike. I must admit that I usually do not like buttercream, as it is usually way too sweet for my taste, but this chocolate version got me hooked! I guess it’s…
Blueberry Limoncello Yogurt Ciambellone
Don’t you think that Blueberry and Lemon is the perfect combination of flavours? I certainly do! And even more so when liquor is involved! This Limoncello Blueberry Yogurt Ciambellone is AMAZING in flavour and texture. The cake is fluffy and light with a good hint of lemon and the blueberry make it even more moist….
Almond Shortbread Cookies
I know we have probably over eaten during these holidays, but if you are still craving cookies (I always am!), I have the perfect recipe for you! I made these Almond Shortbread Cookies for a friend who is gluten intolerant. I was actually going to make my Flourless Chocolate and Pear Cake (which is AMAZING!),…
Goan Marzipan
With today’s post, I will take you all back to India, Goa to be precise. A few days ago, I shared with you the recipe for Milk Cream – a delicious cashew nut and milk fudge, and today I am back with another Goan delicacy traditionally made for Christmas: Goan Marzipan. We all know what…
Milk Cream
Today I will take you all to India with me – to beautiful sunny Goa, to be precise – and I will show you how to make Milk Cream. Milk Cream is a cashew nut and milk fudge that is traditionally made by Goan Catholics for Christmas. It is very likely a local adaptation of…
Doraemon Cake
My youngest daughter turned 7 on the 1st of December. She fell in love with Doraemon when we visited Japan a couple of years ago and this year she requested a Japanese themed birthday party and a Doraemon cake! As I too love Japan and grew up watching Japanese anime (Doraemon included!), I was very…
Coffee Sables
I really love to bake cookies, especially this time of year. Yes, I know it’s hot in Australia and we do not get all the White Christmas vibes people in the Northern Hemisphere get right now, but I can still switch my oven own thanks to my air-con! So, I don’t give up baking cookies!…
Strawberries in White Wine
Today I am going to share with you a very quick and easy end of meal recipe: Strawberries in White Wine. This recipe is similar to the Peaches in Wine recipe I have already shared with you and, just like it, this too can easily substitute dessert, as the wine becomes almost a strawberry flavoured…
Castagnaccio
Today I am back with a traditional Italian recipe: Castagnaccio. It is a typically autumnal dessert found in the Tuscany, Liguria, Piedmont, and Emilia-Romagna regions of Italy. It is made from a batter of chestnut flour, water, extra virgin olive oil, pine nuts, and raisins, which is mixed until smooth and then baked. There are…
Pine Nut Cake
Today’s recipe is one of my favourite cakes. It is a Pine Nut Cake, traditionally from the southern Italian city of Naples. I love anything made with crostata crust as base, but this cake takes it up a notch, with its creamy semolina, milk and pine nut filling. Like the majority of my favourite recipes,…
Lime Leaf Crème Brûlée
Today’s recipe was born as an experiment. It’s spring here in Sydney and my lime tree has got lots of new leaves. When I touched them, I got overwhelmed by their delicious aroma. In the south of Italy, lemon leaves are often used in cooking, so I thought of experimenting with the lime leaves instead….
Nutella Roses
I love making puff pastry treats, both savoury and sweet. I always have some puff pastry in the freezer and I like the fact that working with it is easy and quick. I have already showed you how to make Apple Roses using puff pastry, and today I am going to show you how to…
Rava Ladoo
Happy Diwali! Sunday will mark the beginning of Diwali (दिवाली), the “festival of lights”, a 5-day Indian festival that celebrates the triumph of good over evil and light over darkness. Light is the symbol of the celebrations and many clay lamps filled with oil are lit during the 5 days of the festival. As part…
Strawberry Granita
The weather here is getting warmer and strawberries are in season, sweet and full of flavour! So I didn’t think twice and took my ice cream machine out to make this easy and delicious Strawberry Granita! Italians are famous for their frozen treats and we often have granita for breakfast. Make sure to serve this strawberry…
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…
Apple Orange Hand Pies
I know I have already said this, but apple desserts are among my favourites. I must admit that I am not a huge fan of raw apples (even though they are really good for you!), but cooked apples are a totally different matter. I love the taste, the consistency… everything! And these Apple Orange Hand…
White Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies
My husband and kids love white chocolate, so the other day, I made these White Chocolate Hazelnut Cookies. They were a big hit and got over in no time! In fact, I have already been requested another batch as soon as possible! Like many of my recipes, this recipe was originally created as a way…
Apple filled Cookies
I must admit that we never ate many sweets in my home. My mum is a fantastic cook, but she never really liked baking. One of the exceptions was her Crostata di Mele (click here for the recipe), which till today is still my favourite cake. There is nothing better than biting into sweet crumbly…
Water-based Vanilla Cake
After having my gallbladder removed, I am back at eating “almost” normally. I still try not to have very heavy meals like greasy, fried food or things that are very high in fat… I still need some time for that, but in the meantime, I am still trying to satisfy my cravings. This Water-based Vanilla…
Sweet Taralli
Today I will share with you the recipe for Sweet Taralli. Taralli are traditional cookies from the South of Italy, especially Apulia. They can be sweet, like in this case, or savoury (check out my recipe for savoury Taralli here). Their texture is similar to pretzels and the sweet version is still not very sweet…
Copycat Starbucks Banana Nut Bread
I don’t know about you, but I always have ripe bananas on my bench top! My kids have this annoying habit of insisting that I buy bananas for them and then they don’t want to eat them. And I never learn… Anyhow, thank God for banana bread! I really like having a slice of it…
Pear Gorgonzola Gelato in Hazelnut Balsamic Tuiles
Today I am teaming up with Jomei’s Fine Foods for a very special recipe I developed to showcase their newest product: their Organic Sweet Balsamic Reduction. The moment I tasted it, I knew I wanted to make something sweet with it, but I wanted to go beyond the usual pairing of balsamic vinegar and strawberries. You…
Gravity Defying M&M’s Kit Kat Cake
I made this Gravity Defying M&M’s Kit Kat Cake for my eldest daughter’s 9th birthday. I usually make fondant cakes for my kids’ birthdays, but this year I decided to go for something “easier”. I have recently undergone surgery, so I did not have a lot of time for “planning” this cake. Besides, my daughter…
Eggless Chocolate Cake
Recently we celebrated my eldest daughter’s 9th birthday. We usually have a party at our place and I take care of the food (remember the Frozen theme?), but this year we had to do something a bit different. Due to my recent surgery, I was not able to organise the usual spread of food, so…
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,…
