Vanillas Kifli recipe

These are the best almond biscotti I've ever had.

Eat heartily, accompanied by much loud Italian conversation. In fact, I typed this accompanied by much loud Italian conversation. My parents were here, and both were shouting instructions over my shoulder. They disagreed about the arrangement of the lettuce - my mother said that the hole in the middle of the platter was necessary; my father insisted that it wasn't, saying you can just dump the tuna on top of the lettuce. I finally had to give up on this reply until they went home. So now, in the peace and quiet of the aftermath, I've finished it. Hope you had a wonderful holiday.

Apple Date Strudel recipe

I had this Greek pastry for the first time in a restaurant and I was not overly thrilled with it. So when I ran across this recipe and saw how easy is was to make I decided to try it. I liked my version much better, which will no doubt cause an uproar. So to anyone who has tried this dessert I want you to make this one and let me know if you like it, maybe it tastes nothing like it is suppose to.

They were super easy to make, tasted buttery, cheesy, fluffy and flaky, with the aroma from basil. They can be served pretty much with all the main courses, or just eating them directly is yummy enough!

This easy-to-follow recipe makes the most basic and the most delicious roesti.

Blueberries, Danish and cheesecake are all in one bite, life is good! The cake is made with 100% whole wheat flour, applesauce and olive oil, and they are all good for you. Having one slice or two for breakfast with the morning coffee sounds like a good idea to me :)

Outstanding and perfect with a cup of coffee in the morning.

Have been making all kinds of macarons recently, certainly has become my new addiction. These chocolate macarons are sandwiched with rich-silky chocolate ganache. They melt in your mouth.

These chocolate raspberry macarons are filled with raspberry jam.

These are lots of yummy ingredients in these biscotti, you can find them all in every single bite. Very chocolaty, toasted almonds add the nuttiness, and the orange zest goes deliciously well with chocolate. Enjoy these biscotti with a cup of coffee at any time.

Rich, rich, rich. A little goes a long way.
