My favorite breakfasts are those accompanied by simple, fluffy cakes, and the yogurt plum cake is definitely one of my top ten favorites :D Here’s a version I’m sharing with corn oil and apricot yogurt! Try it—it’s absolutely delicious!!!

Maybe a little late, but I’d like to share a delicious treat for Halloween: Halloween pumpkin pie—or as they say in America, pumpkin pie! So if you’re wondering what to do with the pumpkin flesh left over from carving a Jack-o’-lantern—that classic scary face made by carving out a pumpkin and lighting it with a candle for Halloween—you won’t want to miss this Halloween pumpkin cake! The recipe I used is Betty Crocker’s, which I modified by converting their measurements to a more readable format and, most importantly, by reducing the amount of sugar and condensed milk: they’re crazy! :D So here’s the shopping list for Halloween pumpkin pie!

I’m also following Bake Off 2017, and after the second episode (you can watch it here if you haven’t seen it yet: LINK), Knam made me crave torta della nonna. Since I didn’t have all the ingredients (and didn’t want to make it as complicated as hers—let’s face it…), I tried this recipe, which is much simpler but still very good! For those who may have missed it, and for your convenience, Knam’s recipe (dedicated to his wife Alessandra, Ed.) is here: LINK. Oh, and for those who don’t know: pine nuts are crazy expensive! :D

This** beetroot and chocolate cake** is perfect for anyone who still has leftover chocolate from Easter—or just too much of it! Plus, we can take this opportunity to eat some beets—which, between you and me, I personally don’t really like on their own, let alone the kids! I got the idea for this cake while making the savory beet pie (click for the recipe!), which was created specifically to introduce even the youngest children to this vegetable, thanks to our collaboration with our friends in Rome: MANI - Culture for Children. If you don’t know yet, we’re three really fun guys who liven up the days and evenings of kids in Rome and the surrounding area with super fun events and parties! By the way: this week (Wednesday, to be exact) will feature the penultimate post before summer break—and this time’s color is GREEN!

Hi, everyone! One evening I wanted to bake a cake, but it was too late for the nearby supermarkets to be open, so I had to make do with what I had at home (I know, going without eggs—how do you even do that! :D). Anyway, I have to say that the experiment was a HUGE SUCCESS—otherwise, I obviously wouldn’t even be sharing it with you! :D A delicious plum cake—but if you don’t like chocolate, you can try the other recipes on the site by clicking HERE.

Happy May 1st to everyone! To recover a bit from the long Easter and April 25th holidays, I recommend this excellent variation on my classic “one-minute cake” for Labor Day! The One-Minute Cake… WHOLE-WHEAT!

Apple Pie, made even more famous by the hilarious movie American Pie and by Mickey Mouse with Grandma Duck’s pie. It’s a delicious American-style apple pie: beautiful to look at, delicious to eat—what more could you want? :)

Hi, everyone! How was your weekend? Did you have fun? Did you make the most of your free time? On Saturday, I had a lovely evening with friends, and on Sunday, I spent time with my parents! I hope you all had a great day today. Last week, I made this cake because… um, I hadn’t gone grocery shopping yet and I had these ingredients at home… WHAT A SURPRISE! It’s almost—ALMOST—become my favorite breakfast cake! The apple-oat cake is one of those desserts that feels incredibly light on the palate—you could easily eat half of it for breakfast (um, don’t do that!) and even take it to work for an afternoon snack. TRY IT—you won’t regret it!

Happy New Year and happy birthday to us! That’s right, “Le ricette della Wetta” is turning two today! To celebrate, we’re sharing the recipe for the chocolate and pear tart—a treat you’ll find in any cafeteria or café! I made this for one of our usual pre-Christmas get-togethers with friends, and it was a big hit. The pears provide a nice contrast to the rich chocolate flavor, making it a delicious dessert perfect for any occasion—even a romantic one ;).

Happy Monday, everyone! Today I’m sharing a recipe for lemon egg white cake! I love bringing the dessert I make over the weekend into your homes every Monday! I like to think that I’m bringing you at least a little bit of happiness on this awfullyyyyy bad day! Today I’d like to share another version of the egg-white cake with you. It’s a type of cake I’ve been making a lot lately because it turns out incredibly light and is perfect for any occasion. I definitely recommend it in the morning—it gives you a phenomenal energy boost!
