banana cream pie
This came about simply because I wanted to try out a Nilla Wafer crust and also had a couple of bananas to spare that weren’t overripe. You want to use bananas that are just ripe, the kind you would normally eat as is, and not the kind of overripe bananas you would use for banana…

mississippi mud pie
This is not a difficult recipe, it’s just a little time consuming, because you do need to give each layer adequate time to set and get firmer before adding the next layer. If you did not wait to let it set, you may get messy results. After looking at a bunch of different recipes online,…

coconut mango latiya
Hello! What a long week it has been! How is everyone? I donât know how it feels for other food bloggers, but sometimes for me it feels rather odd to blog about something like pastry cream when there are a number of serious current events in oneâs country and around the world. Does that make…

pastel inteligente (the smart cake)
A few months ago, I ran across this recipe online, and found that there are actually different versions floating around the internet. All of them have similar names–tarta magica, pastel inteligente, smart cake, magic cake–but the idea is the same. The cake basically is one batter that separates into three separate and distinct layers while baking. Hence the…
