I like Italian Napoleon. |
Depends what n the season. In summer I like to incorporate fresh fruit and in the fall or winter I focus on chocolate or nuts or maple or pumpkin. |
Anything simple and seasonal |
I like chocolate I try to skew it seasonally (maybe a chocolate coffee granita in the summer, dark chocolate and orange flourless torte in winter), but gooey brownies work year round |
Cannolis |
Agree! Also depends on what the meal is. Heavier meal generally means lighter dessert. |
Fresh berries, homemade whipped cream |
Depends. I make a great carrot cake and lemon polenta cake.
But sometimes in summer I just want a lemon sorbet and a cookie. I also love frilled peaches with a good vanilla ice cream. |
Old fashioned fruit soaked in wine topped with vanilla ice cream. Also offer a non-alcoholic version. It is easy and great for hot days. |
3 tier seasonal cake |
When the weather is warm I love to make a berry trifle with fresh whipped cream. So yummy! And not too heavy at the end of a dinner party. |
Chocolate mousse. |
Tiramisu. |
Smitten Kitchen chocolate pavlova |
Pie in the summer, in the cold months I prefer cake of some sort (carrot or chocolate) or crumble (apple). |
