Strawberry Nothing
I named this recipe because it is mostly nothing but air. It's fun to make because it's sort of magic. It breaks all those rules you've heard abou egg whites. You don't have to let them get to room temperature. There's no whipping them first and carefully folding in other ingredients. You just put all the ingredients in a big bowl and beat until you have this huge strawberry cloud.

Burnt Caramel Pudding
So far, one of the best parts about living in Boston is my proximity to Toscanini’s burnt caramel ice cream. I’m not even that into ice cream but this flavor, with its slight bitter edge to cut the richness, is crack-like. I attempted to capture it in a pudding, and after incinerating a lot of sugar, I think I finally got it.
Chocolate Orange Shrikandh
How about a pudding that even nursery school children can help make. This involves no baking or cooking, no not even a thickening agent, just simple, honest ingredients. And what is more, it is even good for you!

Tapioca affogato
This pudding is a marriage between Thai coffee, made with sweetened condensed milk, and tapioca pudding. It is simple, tasty and not too sweet, but it does pack a caffeine wallop! I use a metal drip filter, of the type you see in Thai/Vietnamese restaurants, but espresso is wonderful too. - MaryMaryCulinary

Brody’s Cranberry-Pumpkin Muffins

Olive Oil and Coconut Brownies
Because they are so moist, these brownies don’t cut into nice straight-edged squares like cakier confections do. Letting them cool completely before slicing helps them keep their shape. If you dig in while they are still warm, you might end up with something that is not just pudding-like but is unnervingly close to actual pudding, especially in the center.

Carrot halwa
I actually set out this week to fancy up the basic, bare-bones carrot halwa I've enjoyed since I first had this Indian desert. I tried to make it into a soufflé, ice cream, and custard. While my attempts weren't terrible, they only detracted from the magical marriage of creamy milk and sweet carrots accented by cardamom I had started out with.
Cardamom Coconut Flan
Nan Khatai
These are wonderful, light, little cardamom butter cookies. They are easy to make, very unique and always a crowd pleaser! This recipe comes from the cookbook I am working on with my Indian mother-in-law. Although this recipe makes a lot, it is easily halved and they also make perfect hostess gifts! - elizabeth c

Mango Sauce with Cardamom and Saffron
This is a recipe for a puree I fed my daughter when she was 7 months old. It calls for cooking cubes of Mango with crushed Cardamom seeds and strands of saffron.
Caramel Oranges with Cardamom
This Caramel Oranges recipe is a great combination of flavors and can be made at a moment's notice. The oranges are tart and sweet with juicy orange flavor.

Cardamon Cous Cous Pudding
I make this pudding for the farmers market in Stockton New Jersey all the time

Blood Orange, Tangerine and Cardamom Granita
It is the addition of cardamom that transforms this simple citrus granita to a lush dessert with complexity & depth of flavor. Try this Tangerine Granita recipe!

Star Anise Syrup
I broke up with a fellow after stocking his kitchen with ingredients. He asked what he'd do with a cupboard full of spices - this was my suggestion.

Top O' The Evenin'
I love coffee drinks on a cold winter night, and this is among my favorites. Guaranteed to take the chill off and warm you from the inside out.

Cardamom-Walnut Crescents

Buñuelos
Buñuelos have always been a staple at our family gatherings- perfectly crispy and dusted with cinnamon sugar. Try this Harina Preparada recipe. Enjoy!

Grown-Up Granita
This concoction feels granita-like to me, granita being — as you may know — a sort of slushy Italian dessert usually made from water, sugar and fruit or other flavorings. Obviously, this isn’t that. In fact, I cheat completely, beginning with a pint of good-quality sorbet and then simply adding the other ingredients, two of which contain alcohol.

Apples Baked in Cider
Apples baked in cider somehow taste more of themselves. It goes without saying that this is comfort food, easy to put together and pop in the oven just as soon as dinner is underway. If possible, use cider from a farm stand or farmer’s market—it has a deeper, more concentrated flavor than the grocery store brands, which wash out in comparison. The comfort extends to those times when you are not eating dessert for self-improvement purposes, but want something just a little sweet. These won’t do much damage. You can even omit the sugar if you want to feel pure. - Sally

Brown Sugar and Spice Apple Pie

Winter Squash Pie
Could you make Claire Fountain’s traditional pumpkin pie with a can of processed orange mystery pulp? Of course, Ms. Fountain says — if you think you can live with yourself after. But you’ll need to turn in your C.S.A. badge and your copy of “The Omnivore’s Dilemma.”

Flourless Carrot Cake
This crunchy, spicy carrot cake is much lighter and less cloying than most I’ve tasted. It’s important to grate the carrots on the fine holes of your grater, or else they’ll remain too crunchy. For best results, wrap the cake tightly in plastic after it cools and serve it the next day. It will keep for five days in the refrigerator if wrapped airtight.
Butterball Slider Cocktail
This butterball cocktail has butterscotch schnapps in it and is delightful. This recipe is a must try!
Roman Holiday Granita
In Italy they don’t celebrate Thanksgiving. But they have plenty of holidays and saints days of their own. In Rome they’ve seen plenty of pilgrims, fortunately not the ones we got stuck with. As a card carrying member of the Calvin Trillin Spaghetti Carbonara for Thanksgiving Club, I chose granita as dessert. The first time I tasted this was in Tazza D’Oro in Rome. As you approach Piazza Rotunda from the east the most heavenly coffee smells surround you. Your nose will lead you to Tazza D’Oro, so you don’t need directions. At TDO you will be served this refreshing coffee based confection in clear plastic cups, but if you want to tart it up for the holiday serve it in glass mugs. Now, back to the via Veneto… - pierino
