Italian Desserts! Delicious! :)


On Tuesday, myself and Chloe cooked our final dish of the Italian cuisine project. We had already made our two savoury dishes before the mid-term. We had to make a sweet dish. The dish we chose to make was quite quick and easy to make so we were able to make another dish along with it.
We made a Tiramisu and Struffoli. They were both so simple and easy to make. Struffoli are basically fried balls of dough covered in a honey and sugar syrup. We didn't like the honey and sugar combination as it was way too sweet. Instead, we melted chocolate and pour that over the struffoli.
The tiramisu was made in about ten minutes. We dipped sponge fingers into espresso, combined the ingredients for the cream topping, put it on top of the espresso sponge fingers, sprinkled it with chocolate and minstrels and let it set in the fridge.
The two dishes were delicious!

Niamh! :D
