Lavender Mint Granita
A floral, herbal and lemony summer treat that brings these gorgeous lavender fields of Provance straight to my apartment. When you are stranded in the city for the entire summer, what else can you do -- if the hill will not come to Mohammed, Mohammed will go to the hill.
Easy Amaretto Pineapple Ice Pops
My love of something frozen and creamy started at an early age with afternoon visits from Mr. Jolly and his ice cream truck. My love grew stronger when I would visit my Aunt and Uncle who lived near Wrightsville Beach NC every summer. Not only were the beach visits glorious but Uncle "Doots" owned Dairy Queens! Staying up late, swimming and all the ice cream I could eat - every day was heaven. I still love creamy frozen treats and am always thinking of ways to make grown up versions of them. Using 1% milk makes me think I can enjoy one every day! Sometimes I dunk it in a tiny splash of Amaretto ~ This is so easy and so delicious I make variations on them all year round.
Orange Vanilla Coconut Milk Ice Cream
It gets so hot in Dallas and I crave something cold and creamy, but I'm not supposed to eat dairy or sugar so I came up with this for a treat. It tastes like a Creamsicle and could be frozen in a mold if you would like. I know it's not technically ice cream and gets a little icy, but it can't be beat it for fast, tasty, and unlimited flavor variation potential.
Orange cardamom fro-yo
My flatmate's family farm oranges here in Sicily, so we had a glut. What to do? Mix those babies up with yogurt, cardamom and honey and freeze them, of course! Yum.
Hot Love Raspberry Dessert
This recipe is so easy it’s hard to believe how wonderfully the tastes blend together with so little effort. The reason I'm submitting such an easy recipe is that it is always a crowd-pleaser. You can play with the basic amounts of each ingredient but should know that you don’t need a lot of raspberry sauce. I’ve recently found small meringues at my local food store and have topped each cup with a few broken meringue pieces. Serve this in coffee cups for a fun, easy presentation.
Two Ingredient Banana Chocolate Ice Cream
Transform a few bananas and some cocoa powder into a creamy dairy-free ice cream. My mom made this for me a few summers ago. She tried to trick me into thinking it was regular ice cream. It kinda worked!
Grapefruit-Lemon Ice Pops
A simple way of making a fun and refreshing dessert.
Fresh Watermelon Granita with Mint-Infused Simple Syrup
This recipe is simple, delicious, and offers a cool, refreshing treat for any hot summer day.
Roasted Berries with Lime and Toasted Coconut
This little dessert fits the bill perfectly for me with squirts of lime and coconut providing a frame for all the yummy roasted berries. This recipe is divine.
Tender Coconut Smoothie With Choco Topping
This recipe is an invention. Tender coconut is a source of several essential nutritional supplements. In this recipe I use the milk and pulpy part of the tender coconut. The cardamom gives a special fragrance to the smoothie. It is smooth, tasty and yummy!
Super Easy Coconut Balls
Tastes like a candy; almost acts like a health food. Can be made in a single bowl and the only cooking is done in a microwave for less than a minute. Endlessly variable, since you can use different nuts, different kinds of chocolate, and different flavoring for the powdered sugar dusting. Versatile too, since they're equally good as an afternoon snack or a postprandial treat with coffee and whatever else you're drinking. They also store well. Here's my original concoction, inspired by a chocolate covered raisin cluster recipe I saw in an "extra feature" on the DVD of Cinema Paradiso. This is scarcely a recipe and more of a concept, but a nearly foolproof one, despite the sketchy quantities.
Thai Sticky Rice with Tropical Fruit
A simple, creamy coconut milk pudding that is a traditional Thai dessert. Yes, it is cooked in the microwave, but this gives the rice its perfectly al dente, shiny, and sticky quality that you are aiming for. The palm sugar is interchangeable with other sugars, and choose your favorite tropical fruit to accompany the rice. However, the Thai sticky rice is essential! Another sticky rice will do (I've used black sticky rice), but you can't beat the Thai stuff.
Chocolate-Crusted Banana Blondies
A buttery chocolate crust and a rum-scented, banana-imbued butterscotch blondie form two distinct layers that harmonize with every bite. The contrast between crunchy bottom and chewy topping is the whole point of the exercise.
Annette's Corn Flake Marshmallow Wreaths
Growing up, my friend's mom, Annette, would make these cookies at Christmas. We had no problem eating an entire batch in one sitting. I recommend making multiple batches, but not doubling the recipe, because you need to form the wreaths while the mixture is hot.
Flapjacks
Rice Pudding With Golden Raisins
Forget egg yolks and water baths. This is a simple and superb rice pudding that uses only milk, sugar, cream, rice, salt and your choice of flavorings: rum, almond extract, vanilla, orange zest, cardamom, nutmeg, anything else you can dream up. Add the raisins at the end so they don’t get too mushy as the pudding cooks.
Vegan Strawberry Cream Pie
This is a melt in the mouth, creamy strawberry cream pie. Suitable for any occasion but especially afternoon tea. I used a tin of coconut cream which is gorgeous and organic. I got my cream from Celebes http://www.coconutty.co.uk/coconut-cream-p-128.html
Peanut butter and jam cookie sandwiches
These guilt free dessert versions of your favorite childhood treat are both sugar and flour free!
White Chocolate Fennel Truffles
I have been obsessed with adding fennel to sweet dishes, and these little white chocolate truffles might be my favorite recipe so far.

Haroseth Truffles
This recipe takes a traditional Passover treat, and gives it a little twist. Here, dried fruit and nuts are chopped in a food processor, flavored with cinnamon and moistened with a bit of pomegranate juice for a Sephardic version of the recipe. They’re rolled into balls, and dusted with unsweetened coconut. Feel free to substitute any dried fruit or nuts you’d like.
Strawberry Mousse Cups
Shir Berenj - Persian Rice Pudding
Shir-berenj is the Persian incarnation of rice pudding, that universal comfort food. You can build on this recipe for your own twist on the classic flavor.
Matcha Green Tea Crème Brûlée
I'm a big fan of matcha recipes. I decided to make one of our favorite dessert-Crème Brûlée by adding matcha green tea powder to spice up the taste. Voila!!
