All we know what exactly the Italian cuisine means.
Today I would like to talk about its wonderful desserts.
In Italian recipes you will not find some kind of complicated, time-consuming cakes.
What I mostly like about Italian deserts they are really simple to do but incredibly delicious at the same time.
Everybody will certainly like the classic combination of chocolate, coffee and citruses in tiramisu or gentle taste panna cotta - North Italian dessert made of cream, sugar and vanilla.
Endless variations of sugar, nut and biscuit cookies will please any sweet tooth.
My favorite one is cherry biscotti with pistachios.
It is not a secret that Italians put cheese absolutely everywhere even in deserts.
For example ricotta a popular ingredient in many desserts especially in cheesecakes because of its sweet taste and creamy texture.
Or mascarpone – known as the main ingredient of the world famous tiramisu.
I would like to tell you about my favorite Italian desert called ‘affogato’ which means “sunk”.
Put your favorite ice cream in a cup (I like classic vanilla) and full it with espresso and a drop of liquor and affogato is done.
But one of the best things about this recipe you can take a base, espresso and an ice cream, and give free rein to your imagination.
I advise to put some canned cherries and certainly to add a dark chocolate and some biscuits.
I promise it will be great.
Like a real sweet tooth I absolutely sure that Italian desserts cannot leave indifferent.
And if you decide to cook them you will not regret.
