Carrot Cake (My Very First Cake)
This is the very, very first cake that I baked. I am ashamed to say that I was 24 years old.
Chocolate and Coconut Balls
These chocolate and coconut balls are something that Icelandic children enjoy from the day they can say 'chocolate'.
Banana- and Data Cake
This is a simple yet delicious cake. I often make it for my family on lazy Sundays. It goes well with a glass of cold milk (or so my husband thinks).
Chocolate and Date Ice Cream
This ice cream is one of the first ones I made during my days when I thought the only ice creams available were the ones bought from the shops, packed with rubbish.
My Sister in Law's Apple Pie
My sister in law gave me this recipe although I am not sure where it is from originally.
Cashew and Mango Ice Cream Drops
This is a delicious treat. I love the look on my guests' faces when I serve them frozen treats. They never expect it (but are very delighted when they try it out).
Pies
Unbaked / Raw
Although I love cakes, unconditionally, I must confess that I love raw cakes the most. I love the fact that you can make them and eat them anywhere, anytime.
Middle Eastern Sesame Treats (Halvah)
There are several different varieties and even names for Halvahs, the healthy Middle Eastern treats.
Mini Fruit Pies with Carob and Cashew Frosting
I love bananas and cashews mixed together, it is such a creamy blend and I often use it as a frosting for cakes as well as in smoothies and ice creams.
Nut and Chocolate Cake
This is one of my favourite cakes as it is very easy to make and is always a crowd pleaser. Which is why I almost always make this cake for my birthday or special occasions.
Pecan and Cashew Mini Pies
I love cashews and bananas whipped together. It becomes such a creamy and delicious blend, all I want to do is eat it and then some more!
Pecan Pie with Chocolate and Cashew Filling
This pie is absolutely delicious. I have served it on million occasions and it never fails to satisfy, even the most difficult chocolate lovers.
Pistachio and Coconut Treats
I have often seriously considered using a pad lock on my containers because when you make something so nice as these delicious treats, it's very, very hard to keep your fingers away.
Walnut and Raisin Cookies / Treats
Walnuts are amazingly healthy and are sometimes called the "heart's seat belt" because of their heart protective qualities. They are also good for our brain.
