Week 96: Cannoli Cake
I recently visited Boston and tried Mike’s Pastry. It specializes in cannolis, and trust me, it’s totally worth the hype. Jump to the recipe! I’ve tried two cannolis from Mike’s Pastry: the pistachio and the chocolate chip. Both were so good, but I really liked the chocolate chip flavor. I wanted to try recreating the flavors of the cannoli in cake form, especially after seeing recipes like it on my TikTok. With the flavors still fresh in my taste buds, I am excited to report

Week 92: Chai Tiramisu
Tiramisu is probably one of my favorite desserts, and I order it every time my family goes to an Italian restaurant. Jump to the recipe! However, as a South Asian myself, I have always thought of how delicious a chai tiramisu would be. Today, I tried it for the first time, and trust me, it is so worth it. I may never go back to the classic espresso tiramisu again. This chai tiramisu is packed with spices and flavor, and the tea rusk is a fun twist on the usual ladyfingers. Te

Week 90: Raspberry Cream Cake
I was thinking back to my Jeremiah's $750 Dream Wedding Cake, a chocolate raspberry cake, and I decided to make a spin-off with vanilla instead. Jump to the recipe! Not only is this cake easier, with fewer components and less time or effort required, but it’s also perfect for people who aren’t big fans of chocolate. I think by letting the cake stay simple with only vanilla whipped cream and cake layers, the raspberry flavor is able to shine. If you don’t love raspberries, no

Week 89: Chocolate Chip Banana Coffee Cake
I love a good coffee cake to start off my morning on a rainy Seattle Saturday. This chocolate chip banana coffee cake was no exception. Jump to the recipe! Banana bread on its own is great, but I think the texture of a coffee cake makes the dessert even more irresistible. The chocolate chips are optional, but I personally can’t get enough of chocolate chip banana bread, so I added them to the recipe. Not only is the cake topped with crumble, but it’s also filled with a cinnam

Week 88: Gingerbread Tiramisu
Just because the holidays have come to an end doesn’t mean that you can’t enjoy gingerbread anymore. Jump to the recipe! I made this delicious gingerbread tiramisu, and it is the perfect treat to make in the cold winter season. It’s such a fun spin on the classic tiramisu. You can use real gingerbread cookies, but I prefer ginger snap cookies since they hold their shape better. This recipe comes together in an instant, and in my opinion, I think it’s even better than classic
