We couldn’t leave out the classic recipe par excellence: coffee tiramisu! I even managed to get my boyfriend—who doesn’t like coffee—to eat it. Unbelievable! If you’re not crazy about coffee either, why not try my two variations—strawberry (RECIPE HERE) and pineapple (LINK)!

With this heat, getting into the kitchen is quite a challenge, I know! I assure you, though, that once you’ve made them, let them cool, and tasted them, these goat cheese and white chocolate tartlets will be well worth the effort! It’s a very easy recipe to follow, but the results are guaranteed! Give it a try and let me know how they turn out!

These yogurt and strawberry cups are a great **dessert **to make on the spot or keep in the fridge for a light meal or a hearty snack during these first warm days of mid-spring! It takes just a few minutes to prepare and requires very few ingredients. You can enjoy this dessert right away or store it in the fridge for future occasions! This recipe is part of the series we’re doing with MANI - Culture for Kids. As you can probably guess from the season and the fruit we’ve chosen, the color this time is RED! I can’t wait to see how much fun the kids will have making—and especially EATING—this recipe! <3

Here’s another recipe—for chocolate salami—that’s very simple, fun, and super quick to make; in fact, it’ll only take us 30 minutes! Plus, you don’t need any tools—it’s all done by hand! If you haven’t had a chance yet, check out the website of our friends in Rome who organize children’s activities—CLICK HERE to learn more!

Chocolate tartufini are the first recipe developed for MANI: they’re a really fun group of young people from Rome who devote themselves body and soul to children’s entertainment, traveling to every library in the capital to entertain kids with a perfect blend of culture and play! Over the next few weeks, we’ll be collaborating with them to teach children the importance of good nutrition through recipes inspired by the seasons and, above all, by the colors of life.
