Riz Au Lait
A very cheap, but o so good dessert. Add some fresh fruit and you’ll have a very nice and heavenly breakfast!
Our Favourite Belgian Waffles
This is our favourite type of waffles. They normally are eaten hot, but the leftovers are very good cold as well.
Chocolate Orange Cream Cocktail
This is a drink that’s as pretty as it is a sweet indulgence. In fact, we like to call it dessert in a martini glass. It tastes a bit like those Chocolate Orange Cream candy eggs, but a whole lot better and more grown up. Wanna really make this pretty? Drizzle some chocolate syrup lightly across the finished drink in a zig zag pattern. Oh yummy!
Tarte Aux Abricots – Glazed French Apricot Tart With Almonds
This is my favourite type of French fruit tart, even more so than apple tart! Our local Patisserie makes a wonderful Tarte aux Abricots, but they are quite expensive and VERY large, much too big for the two of us when we have no B and B guests! So, I have been tinkering in the kitchen again, and have come up with this recipe. You MUST use fresh apricots for this – tinned ones are too soft and too sweet. Plus, I love the slightly tart flavour that the fresh apricots lend to the flavours of this tart. The ground almonds are scattered over the base of the short crust pastry case to stop it becoming soggy during cooking; they also provide a complimentary flavour to the apricots. A classic French tart that will make a delightful ending to any special meal or for afternoon tea. Serve this tart with fresh whipped cream or crème fraiche.
Belgian Buns
This is a recipe someone on the British site was looking for. I found it on Delia Smith’s messageboard. I haven’t tried it. And I’ve no idea how long it takes to make.
