Watermelon & Mascarpone Parfait

Layered desserts are always my favourite, obviously if am planning to make some special desserts for special occasions, i wont hesitate a second to make layered desserts just to please everyone's tastebuds. Its peak season of watermelon here, i seriously want to give a try to a simple and refreshing layered dessert with this summer fruit since a while. Before we left to summer vacation, we had a small get together with our close friends, obviously i prepared this watermelon and mascarpone parfait to serve as a dessert after our meal. Trust me, this refreshing parfait makes an elegant dessert after a heavy or a special meal. Very easy to make, we simply loved this refreshing dessert and got many appreciation from my friends for this catchy dessert.

Eggless Crispy Almond Cookies With Chocolate Chips/Thin Almond Cookies

Crispy Almond Cookies, trust me these scrumptious cookies are dangerously addictive. Usually i love to indulge chewy cookies, while googling few days back i accidently saw these crispy cookies.Though i was bit intrigued by these crispies, i gathered all the ingredients to give a try to these nutty cookies. Almost like butter cookies, these crispy almond cookies calls for butter, obviously this cookies are loaded with butter and chocolate chips. This cookie dough gets ready very much quickly though this dough sits for half an hour in freezer or for an hour in fridge. However apart from this, these cookies gets completely baked within 15 minutes.

Vegan Saffron Cashew Pilaf

Pilaf is a rice dish which is prepared or cooked in a seasoned broth. Though this rice ressembles as much as like Indian pulaos or briyanis, pilaf calls for easy breezy preparation. Depending upon the local cuisine, meat, vegetables, nuts, pasta or else dry fruits are added to the pilaf. Pilaf is a staple food and a national dish in most countries. Pilaf makes an excellent lunch or else a Royal feast when served along with rich side dishes or else with grilled meats. Since am running this week's blogging marathon with 'Go Nuts' as this week's theme, i couldnt resist to dish out this fantastic, easy breezy cashew pilaf which is simply flavoured with bay leaf, cloves,cinnamon stick and saffron strands.

Eggless Chocolate Walnut Rolls

I have been baking often now as am in summer vacation. After an exciting trip to Sicily we came back home with full enthu. Everyone at home just missed my homemade breads and hence i kick started baking by baking out this alluring eggless, chocolate walnut rolls which tastes more delicious than the usual cinnamon rolls. Since none at home want cinnamon rolls for their snacks, i simply went with a chocolate based walnut rolls. This rolls are completely eggless and not vegan. Yes butter and milk plays an important role for preparing this bread dough. Am running this month's blogging marathon with Go nuts as this week's theme. Obviously i will be posting three different nuts based dishes for this week's theme.
