My Family's Favorites

A few good dessert recipes, that were my family's favorites for years, are gathered in this little cookbook. By favorite, certainly we don't mean delicious to eat, but more like fun to make... So you'll find all the tiny little key steps to prepare these recipes in this book, all you have to do is to follow the pictures, only little reading is needed... no need to worry.

The making of this book was fun itself, a good family activity... The main idea of the book was to maintain the recipes for our generation (that is for me and my sister!). I wanted it to be easy to understand and practical to use, that explains the loads of pictures with a few lines of words and its standing ability, so it can stand on the kitchen counter and you don't need to flip pages searching for steps and ingredients, you can just take a quick peek to the numbered pictures and you'll  know where you are.

Now, let me tell what you'll find in there... it starts with a delicious recipe of my mother's own, its called chocolate balls with biscuits, nuts and dried fruit. Then there's the choux pastry to make éclair; custard, a very useful filling used in many desserts; chocolate mousse; sablé dough to make sablé cookies and tart; kenefé bjebné, a delicious Lebanese breakfast and last but not least, pineapple cake with sponge cake. (As I mentioned before its a small book!! not to much recipes... for now!)
