Desserts are simply my own “cute” sin, as the French say! Fat? I learned to manage! But making good desserts without a lot (or enough) butter and also manage efficiently sugar… it’s a challenge by far more difficult because life without desserts, it’s not called life!
I try though to make the best light desserts I can, but the domain where I excelled, is learning how to manage quantities! And this was a very difficult task but it was worth the try because I am not obliged to renounce to my sin :) And a sin that is “cute”, it’s no longer a sin :)
Meringue Italian biscuits with spices and dried fruits
These biscuits are called brutti ma buoni and they are very good! Spices (cinnamon, ginger and 4-spices) give them a mild character and roasted almonds and hazelnuts give their special character and some crunchiness! They are really good!
Raspberry Muffins
These muffins are really easy to make and sooo good! You don’t even need a mixer to make them ;-) And you can use fresh or frozen raspberries! Cinnamon brings its special flavor and everything goes well together :-) It’s so tasteful! It’s up to you!
Giant Chocolate Chip Cookie
A cookie that can be split in portions? Yes, this giant cookie can be split and we reduce the total fat so there is even more pleasure! Give it a try and get one bite at a time! It’s even better!
Light French Flan – Three perfumes
This light French flan is made with milk, egg, sugar and flour and it comes in three versions: orange blossom, vanilla, and chocolate/cinnamon! It’s quite good and has less calories than a yogurt with fruits or a cream!
