Delicate, sweet, beautiful desserts for tea or coffee are what any meal ends with. It’s not for nothing that the word “dessert” translates from French as “clearing the table” – when the remains of the first courses are taken away, the guests are waiting with bated breath for delicious desserts, the photo recipes of which are presented in abundance in our section.
Easy dessert recipes that every chef will be able to prepare are sour cream ice cream with dried apricots, strawberry Turkish delight, curd-apple mousse with orange jelly, caramelized pumpkin and bread pudding. To enjoy a delicious cheesecake or tiramisu, you do not need to go to the pastry shop, because you can cook amazing desserts at home, and our readers generously share recipes. Some dessert recipes are quick and easy to prepare – smoothies with persimmons, sweets made from nuts and dried fruits, fried cheese with honey and fruits, baked apples, goji seeds and berries.
You can treat yourself to a delicious dessert after the end of the meal, or you can eat an appetizing sweetness just like that – to lift your mood. They are cold and hot, of different caloric content, simple and complex. Chocolate, cookies, puddings, buns, ice cream, honey, sweets, pastille cakes – and this is just a small list of everyone’s favorite dishes!
They can be bought in a pastry shop or in a store, but it is always necessary to take into account the fact that self-prepared desserts are guaranteed to contain no allergy-causing ingredients, excess calories and fat, and also look more advantageous from an aesthetic point of view.
The cooking time varies from fifteen minutes, if it is a fruit salad with cream or tiramisu, and up to two hours for a cake (along with baking). For certain recipes, the products will have to be soaked and prepared in advance, so that then it remains only to mix them and put them in the oven.
From dishes and appliances for making desserts, you will need a whisk, bowls, creamers, baking or freezing molds, a blender, saucepans, sometimes foil, toothpicks and glasses.
Most of the recipes will not require anything that you need to go further than the nearest supermarket, and the stocks of vanilla sugar, whipped cream, zest, mixtures for kneading dough and cream available to each experienced cook simplify the task even more!
It just so happens that the New Year falls on the Christmas fast. Those who fast on this holiday know how difficult it is to set a festive table, and especially to cook something for dessert. In this case, I am always saved by a lean orange pie made according to a Greek recipe. The cupcake turns out delicious, fragrant, does not crumble for a long time, and its orange color lifts the mood.
Although the ice cream is lean, I cook it not only during Lent. Very tasty and fragrant – my children really like it. It is prepared from only 2 ingredients, you can do without special molds for this dessert.
This glaze is perfect for any confectionery. They can cover not only mousse, but also sponge cakes, well frozen before that. And we’ll cover our raspberry eclairs with them. And they will become beautiful-very pretty, as in modern confectionery. The remains of the glaze are perfectly stored in the freezer, if necessary, simply defrost it and bring it to operating temperature.
In cooking, as in clothing, there is fashion. This is especially clearly seen in confectionery. The tone is set by famous confectioners, presenting recipes in their blogs, which then disperse among users. Raspberry… The taste of this berry has already fallen in love with many sweet tooths a year ago, but the release of a limited series of popular sweets has once again raised it to the crest of a sweet wave. Now there will be a crimson ringing. I offer you a variation of French custard cakes. And to make it quite beautiful – cover them with mirror glaze.
I decided to dilute the classic taste of my favorite dessert with meringue and nuts. It turned out the most winter combination: honey, nuts, spices. This cake was baked for my eldest son’s birthday. There are no indifferent people left, and we have a new version of the cake “Custom-made”.
Soft, sweet, with the aroma of honey and spices – this cake is simply created for winter weather! It’s so nice to have a cup of tea with him after a long walk… And it is very easy to prepare, so involve children in the baking process, they will certainly be interested!
New Year’s holidays are not only a festive table, candles and treats. This also includes gatherings with friends, visits and, of course, breakfast with family. It is for such breakfasts that I suggest you prepare this tender and delicious casserole. Something similar was prepared by my grandmother when I was with her on New Year’s holidays. Of course, there was no cottage cheese then, but there was cottage cheese and sour cream. This option is very similar to the one that was in childhood.
The taste of baking with cinnamon is the most Christmas, wonderful and festive. Spend half an hour and fill the house with this magical, fabulous smell, and drink tea at the same time. To heal.
New Year’s days seem to be the most wonderful, the brightest, the most mysterious… For a festive tea party, I suggest baking a cake, cottage cheese, but with nuts. To heal.
