Decadent Two Bite Gulab Jamun
Gulab Jamun is the most beloved Indian sweet consisting of fried dough balls made from powdered milk and then soaked in rose flavored sugar syrup. This is an easy recipe and anyone can make it anytime. Try it this Diwali!
Rasgullas / Cheese Balls in Light Sugar Syrup
Made throughout the Indian Subcontinent but particularly loved by Bengalis, rasgullas are cheese balls in thin sugar syrup. They are soft, spongy, juicy and make a perfect festive sweet treat.
Cranberry Apple Crisp
This irresistibly delicious fruit dessert features tender apples and cranberries topped with crumbly oat and walnut topping. This is one of those recipes that everyone should have in their back pocket for fall baking. It’s easy enough to make a big batch and equally works well for single serving dessert.
No bake Mango Brûlée
Sweet, creamy, and slightly tangy, this egg less mango brulee is a delicious reminder that spring is here and summer is on its way. It’s a fantastic make ahead dessert suitable for any occasion.
Coconut Pandan Black Sticky Rice with Mangoes
My daughter came over yesterday and said, “Mom you haven’t made anything with mangoes this season”.
“We’ll change that tomorrow”, I said.
There’s no end to the goodness in my kitchen when I bring home mangoes. I am seriously addicted. I eat one mango everyday (that’s what makes me gain weight in summer). I love manila mangoes very much. Even their smell is superb! The flesh is super sweet and has almost zero fiber. To me this readily available fruit is as close as I can get to mango heaven. I knew exactly how I was going to use these in a recipe. We went to a Thai restaurant for my daughter’s birthday and since then the black sticky rice pudding was on my mind. Often served with mango, this is a totally exotic dessert that is so easy to make. I love the creaminess of the pudding, and the color contrast between the black sticky rice with the white coconut cream and golden yellow of the mango.
Vanilla Bean Crème Brulee
Since its February and love is in the air, I am sharing a recipe that is insanely delicious and perfect for Valentine’s day. It’s a Creme Brulee, a timeless classic consisting of a rich custard base topped with contrasting layer of hard caramel. The custard in this dessert has the advantage of being made ahead, then right before serving the top is caramelized using a kitchen blow torch (or alternately under broiler). It’s a perfect dessert for any special occasion, especially a romantic evening at home.
Happy Indulging!
