Greek yogurt topped with fresh peach sauce, or pear or plum or apple sauce has been a quick, cold, satisfying dessert all summer.

‘Monster Pops’, the cherry-pineapple popsicles are great on those terribly hot days. We used to call them ‘bomb pops’ as kids.

Thanks LindaWhit! There was a method to my madness, I was eliminating the shadows cast by the lights in the kitchen. It’s a wee dessert, the glass is 1 1/2 wide and about 3” tall.

Frozen banana with whipped coconut milk, raw walnuts, and homemade chocolate sauce from a vegan joint in the hood. Plenty for two, could not finish. Tried, tho

Has anyone else noticed the Gâteau Basque recently getting its time in the limelight? I started seeing it at Japanese convenience stores, and now in Manhattan (well, maybe near Chinatown?), too.

Basque cheesecake? That’s been trending for a few years now.
Despite my darling heading out to TX tomorrow for a couple of days, we simply had to stock up on our cookie stash. Isgro is an amazing and highly popular pastry shop near the Italian market. I’ve never seen the place empty & can only imagine how packed the tiny bakery is on the weekends!
We got the usual — pasticcini & butter walnut cookies (my faves), ricotta chocolate cookies, macaroons, Italian chocolate cookies.

It’s been really popular in Toronto for close to 10 years, especially the version at Bar Isabel.
I saw it, and enjoyed it, at 7 11 in Japan in 2020.
A lot of my friends were making it 3 or 4 years ago, and I noticed a recipe in the Wall St Journal last weekend, with lemon.
Macaroon. Biggun, too.
Ricotta chocolate chip cookie. Well, the half that was left before I could snap it.
