oat raisin cookies, the chewy ones!




What do think about some old time classic cookies for breakfast? With oats and raisins, chewy, dense and moist in the middle...? Yeah.... that's what I had in mind...
Specially made for Stefania's grandpa, who used to have them quite often when he was in the USA.

what about some vintage desserts?

There is nothing like mum's desserts... right?
I had to make some for the family gathering on Easter day!







I made a trifle with digestive biscuits, roasted hazelnuts and almonds, dark chocolate swiss meringue buttercream and whipped cream.








And then...for the first time I made a Pavlova!!!! The meringue took me 3,5hs to bake, it stuck on the baking sheet and broke but the taste was absoloutely perfect! Everybody loved it and the appearance was not that bad so...that was fine!
