Orange Baklava cheesecake

My healthy yet delicious take on baklava cheesecake. Orange baklava cheesecake is a delight; every bite reminds you of spring. I used orange blossom honey and zest to make this mildly citrusy cheesecake. The filo sheets act like a vessel holding the cheesecake filling, adding to the texture. The beauty of filo pastry is its ability to add layers. When baked to perfection, they get a gorgeous color.

Lemon curd tarts

The sun is so bright early morning, and I am getting summer vibes already. Mayer lemons are the first thing that pops into my mind when I say summer. What better than a crumbly tart filled with golden lemon curd? Butter, sugar, and lemon combine to give you a rich yet light melt-in-mouth curd. We all loved it. 

Watermelon jelly

I had started with the idea of making a simple watermelon salad but stayed a little longer in the kitchen to use the leftover bits of watermelon to make a jelly. I am glad I have a little help from my son. Homemade jelly from fresh fruits is far better than synthetic ones. No cooking was involved, and it took us 10 minutes to put things together. 

Mangomisu or mango Tiramisu

With leftover ingredients from Matcha tiramisu, another tiramisu was definitely in order. Mango tiramisu was a popular choice as it is the season of mangoes. These days I tend to have a jar of mango puree in the refrigerator. This helps me whip up a refreshing milkshake or simple dessert in no time.

Matcha Tiramisu

The simplicity of this dessert will surprise you. I love matcha, and Matcha tiramisu is as elegant as the drink. Kids can enjoy this one without the fear of caffeine. Matcha balances out the rich and heavy feel of the cream, making it light. 

Salted caramel mousse

Here is a decadent, indulgent dessert that will take you back to the childhood candy store. Salted caramel mousse is sweet and has the saltiness from the sauce to cut through it. I added the popcorn and lotus biscuits for some crunch. 

Easy eggless chocolate mousse

Are you looking for an easy chocolate dessert recipe for your guests? You have reached your destination. The easy eggless dark chocolate mousse that is loved by all. You can serve it to both grown-ups and kids both. It is also safe for expecting moms. Just five ingredients, and you see happy faces. I had a request for a second helping too.

Pumpkin Bhapa Doi/ Steamed yogurt

Diwali is tomorrow, and I need to dig into sweets for no reason. This year I will avoid the regular traditional sweets for a dessert that is healthy and is traditional. Bhapa Doi, or steamed yogurt, is a Bengali dessert made with yogurt and can be flavored with seasonal jaggery. With the pumpkin season in full swing, I decided to bring the best of both worlds together. So, I offer you Pumpkin Bhapa Doi or Steamed yogurt.
