No, I’m not baking in this hot weather 🙂 These lemon snikerdoodle blondies were made a few weeks ago when it was still nice to put the oven on! The boyfriend loves them with his morning coffee and I love them at any time of the day 🙂 Snickerdoodle… At this stage, some of…
dessert
French apple tart
Let’s start 2018 with a delicious and traditional French apple tart… this dessert is a must at my table during the Christmas festivities! It was like this in Portugal because my aunt loves desserts with apples and it will continue here in Malta because the boyfriend loves it too… Nothing like a family in agreement…
Orange and almond cake
If you have followed my recipes (you have, haven’t you?), then you must have noticed how much I like the combination of almonds and orange flavours… Last time I showed you my Orange and almond cream and now it’s the turn of orange and almond cake. See how much I like these two put together?…
No bake mini plum cheesecake
I’ve had this recipe for no bake mini plum cheesecake for quite a while and somehow it got placed at the bottom of my “to cook” list. Till I spotted some really nice plums at my grocers and I just couldn’t resist. For me, cheesecake is a typical Summer dessert which I love. The problem…

Vanilla panna cotta with Summer berries coulis

Well, it also tastes nice, very nice indeed 🙂 My plan was to have a menu based on the 3 countries represented around…
Blueberry clafoutis
Today I really felt like eating something sweet… very unusual but sometimes it happens 🙂 And of course, there’s nothing sweet around the house! Ok, let’s just bake something easy and delicious… Blueberry clafoutis! Now there’s a nice dessert that I’ve never done before. A few weeks ago my friend Betti done it herself and…
