It’s the season of giving, and homemade sweets are often my gift of choice. This homemade Dubai Chocolate is a beloved fan favorite, so much so it was nominated for the TikTok Awards this year! Making it homemade is well worth it, especially with quality ingredients, and I’m sure your family and friends will love it.
 
Dubai Chocolate
 
Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups kataifi
1 tbsp peanut oil (optional)
1 heaping cup (320g) pistachio cream
1/4 cup crushed pistachios (optional)
250g high quality chocolate (66% cocoa or to your preference)
 
Instructions:
Using a sharp knife, cut the kataifi into small pieces as in the IG reel. Add into a medium pan over low heat, toast the kataifi slowly, stirring occasionally. When the color becomes a light golden, add peanut oil (optional) and continue to toast until crisp and golden brown. Set aside.

Melt the chocolate over a bain marie. Remove from the heat and let sit while mixing the kataifi mixture.
 
Once the kataifi is room temp, add into a medium bowl with the pistachio cream and crushed pistachios. Mix together until fully combined.
 
Pour the melted chocolate into the mold, tilt to coat the bottom and sides, and then flip over to allow the excess to drip out. Immediately place into the freezer for around 10 minutes just until set. If the chocolate looks too thin, repeat this process one more time on top of the first layer of chocolate.
 
Divide the kataifi mixture in two and spread evenly over both sides of the chocolate bar. Pour the remaining chocolate over the top and use a straightedge to smooth the surface. Return to the freezer for 10 to 15 minutes until set.
 
Carefully remove from the mold and wrap with parchment paper. Serve immediately or store in the fridge. Let sit at room temp for a few minutes before serving.
 
Bon appetit!

I haven’t been starstruck in my kitchen for a while…but each time I looked over to see Betul (@turkuazkitchen )cooking with my pots and pans I certainly was. Her skill set isn’t something you find often…she grew up in rural eastern Türkiye, learning to cook alongside her mother and sisters. Now a young mother herself, she’s cooking for them and sharing her talents to the world. It was beautiful to watch her move in the kitchen.  Blessed day. Thank you, Betul for bringing your smile and light to the farm.

Here is a video that is very special to me. This Pain au Chocolat recipe was one of the earliest ones that went viral, and since then, I’ve retested it many times to create the perfect version of it. That version actually made it into my cookbook! I hope you try this recipe, I’ve made it as simple as possible—but the result will still impress all your loved ones ❤️

Continuing our Valentine’s series, there’s nothing quite as special as a fresh loaf of crusty and warm Sourdough Bread. Bright Raspberry Jam and tangy Homemade Mascarpone make for a beautiful and festive presentation for a Valentine’s Day breakfast. For the Sourdough, I just used my basic recipe (updated version coming to my website soon!) and folded raspberry powder in the dough and topped with additional powder.
 
Sourdough Bread with Raspberry Jam and Homemade Mascarpone
 
Ingredients:
For the Mascarpone Cheese: 
750ml heavy cream (not-ultra-pasteurized cream is ideal, but it is hard to find)
17g lemon juice
 
For the Raspberry Jam:
6 oz fresh raspberries
¼ cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice
 
Instructions:
Prepare the Mascarpone Cheese: In a medium saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium-high heat to 195F (if you don’t have a thermometer, bring it just to a simmer). Once the cream reaches the desired temperature, add the lemon juice. Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook for 14-15 min, stirring constantly until thickened. You can test by coating the back of a wooden spoon with the cream mixture; if you can draw a line with your finger on the cream on the back of the spoon and the line stays clear as in the reel, it is ready. Remove from the heat and place the cream saucepan over ice water. Let cool for 5-6 min, stir occasionally.
 
Fill a strainer with a double layer of cheesecloth and place a bowl under the strainer.
Pour the cream into the cheesecloth and refrigerate it for at least 24 hours until thickened. (I refrigerated it for 32 hours for an even better texture.) You can store it in the refrigerator for 7-8 days. 
 
Prepare the Jam: In a small saucepan over medium heat, add fresh raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Mash the raspberries with a wooden spoon and continue to cook while stirring for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 to 7 minutes until thick and jammy. Turn off the heat and let cool before using. You can store in a container in the fridge for 4-7 days.
 
Serve the spreads with thick slices of fresh sourdough bread and enjoy.
 
Bon appétit!

It may sound strange, but this vanilla-scented milk pudding from the Ottoman Empire uses boiled chicken breast to achieve its thick texture. I promise you that you can’t taste or smell the chicken at all, thanks to the chicken soaking in ice water 2-3 times, then milk with aromatics to completely remove its flavor. There’s a modern version that replicates the texture without chicken, but I wanted to make the original version for you first because it is such an interesting recipe. What do you think?

The recipe is on my website, link in bio!

This molten chocolate cake is a rich, decadent treat that any chocolate fanatic will adore! The warm, gooey center is perfect when served with ice cream, and makes for a delicious holiday dessert ❤️

Molten Chocolate Cake

Ingredients
For the cake:
226g (2 sticks) salted butter
320g semisweet chocolate
1/2 cup cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
8 large eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, divided (or 2 cups, if you want it more sweet)
4 tbsp all-purpose flour

Pistachio cream (optional)*
 
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 23cm (9-inch) round springform pan and line the base with parchment paper.

Cut the butter and chocolate into pieces and melt together in a bowl set over a pot of simmering water (bain marie), stirring every 30 seconds, until smooth. Once the mixture is smooth, sift in cocoa powder and salt and stir to combine. Set aside.

Separate the eggs, putting the whites into a large bowl of a stand mixer and the yolks into another medium bowl. Combine the egg yolks with 1 cup of sugar and whisk vigorously until the mixture becomes pale and fluffy. Set aside. 

Meanwhile, use a stand or handheld mixer to beat the egg whites, gradually adding the remaining sugar. Continue mixing until the egg whites have stiff, glossy peaks.

You should now have three bowls that need to be mixed together. First, pour the melted chocolate mixture into the egg yolks and stir gently until fully incorporated. Then, slowly add about a third of the egg whites into the chocolate mixture and gently fold. Add the remaining egg whites and continue folding gently until the entire mixture is combined and no streaks of egg white remain. Try to keep as much air in the batter as possible. 

Pour about 1/3 of the cake batter back into another bowl to set aside for later. Add 2 Tbsp of flour to the remaining 2/3 of the batter and mix well, still being careful to preserve the air in the mixture.

Making something beautiful out of dough will always be a comfort to me. This stunning brioche loaf is swirled with chocolate, chocolate chips, and chocolate hazelnut spread, making for an indulgent bread that will likely be devoured on its own. However, paired with a sweet, tangy strawberry sauce, it becomes a special treat.

Getting back to work after maternity leave is no joke! I have been so excited to return to the kitchen and start creating new recipe videos again, but balancing everything with a newborn has been a real challenge. Right now, I feel like I am working with only 10% of my creative brain! 😊 For all the parents out there, how did you ease back into your routines after welcoming a new baby? I would love to hear your experiences.

In the meantime, I made these delicious donuts using our classic donut dough, baked instead of fried and topped with a touch of craquelin. The result? A delicious little coffee-time treat I hope you will love.❤️

5 tbsp butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 1/2 tbsp cinnamon
Pinch of salt
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Caramelized Pumpkin Puree (see below)

For the Frosting:
4 oz cream cheese (typically half a package)
3 tbsp butter
1 tbsp milk
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Pinch of salt
1/4 cup pistachios, chopped (optional)

Instructions:
Prepare the Dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the warm milk, yeast, and 1/2 tsp sugar and let it rest until fluffy for 5-7 min.

In a large bowl (preferably of a stand mixer), add the flour, the remaining sugar, salt, eggs, butter, vanilla, and the activated yeast. Mix them well until combined for about 3-4 minutes. Then, cover it with a cloth or plastic wrap and let it rest at room temperature for 4-5 minutes.

After the dough has rested, knead the dough with a stand mixer or using your hands for 8-10 mins. Then transfer the dough into a large bowl and cover it with plastic wrap and let it sit for 40-45 minutes until doubled in size. After the initial proof, place it in the refrigerator and let it rest for another 1 1/2 hours.

Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, mix the butter, sugar, cinnamon, salt, and vanilla. 

Place the dough onto a lightly floured surface and roll the dough into a rectangle (around 1/4 inch thick).Evenly spread the cinnamon mixture over the dough. If you’re adding Caramelized Pumpkin Puree, spread the puree over top the cinnamon filling. Starting from the long end, roll the dough down to the bottom edge until you have one long roll. Using a string or sharp knife, cut the dough into 8-9 equal rolls. 

Place the buns on prepared baking sheets or a cast iron skillet lined with parchment paper and cover it with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rest for 40-45 min at room temp.

Betul and I were brainstorming what we would cook together and we both agreed we would let the market garden decide for us. Tomatoes, carrots, onions, celery meant we were making ragu, beautiful edible flowers meant we making pasta with pressed petals, all the milk from the dairy meant we were making some sort of cheeses! My favorite kind of shopping. @ballerinafarmstore @turkuazkitchen

Welcome October🍁🍂❤️It’s the season for fall recipes, and what’s more fall than a delicious pumpkin dessert? Inspired by tiramisu, this dessert has all the warm, seasonal flavors of pumpkin and pumpkin spice. I make it with sponge cake, but of course you can do classic ladyfingers as well.

Betul’s Pumpkin Tiramisu
 
Ingredients:
For the Mascarpone Cream:
4 egg yolks
3/4 cup granulated sugar
16 oz cold mascarpone
1 ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
 
For the Coffee Soak:
1 1/2 cup coffee
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp pumpkin spice
2 full tbsp granulated sugar
 
For the Build:
1 sheet pan Sponge Cake or 18-20 Ladyfingers
2 tbsp cocoa powder
 
Instructions:
Preparing the Mascarpone Filling:
In a medium bowl (large enough to sit on a small saucepan), whisk the egg yolks and sugar. Place the bowl on top of a small pan with simmering water and stir for 7-8 min on low heat until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat and let it cool at room temp.
 
In a medium bowl, add mascarpone, pumpkin puree, and vanilla and beat together. Pour egg mixture and gently whisk until just combined. In another bowl, beat cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Using a spatula, gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture. Store in the fridge until use.
 
Preparing the Tiramisu:
If using sponge cake, trace the shape of your tiramisu container twice onto the sponge cake and cut to create two layers of cake. In a bowl, combine the coffee, vanilla, pumpkin spice, and sugar. Dip each side of the ladyfingers or sponge cake into the coffee mixture (you can also place the sponge cake in the tiramisu container and drizzle the coffee mixture over top), then place them into the bottom of a dish to create a layer. Pipe a layer of mascarpone cream. Then place another layer of coffee-dipped ladyfingers or sponge cake over the cream. Pipe the second layer of cream. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and chill for at least 3-4 hours or overnight.
 
Dust with cocoa powder and serve with love! (and more coffee)
 
Bon Appétit!

One of the most delicious parts of a good Chicken Parm is the textural difference between the crispy outside of the chicken with the smoothness of the bright tomato sauce and melty cheese. Instead of breadcrumbs, this version is crusted with shredded potato (a perfect gluten-free option!) that crisps up beautifully. Additionally, I heat the sauce and cheese separate from the chicken to pour on top restaurant-style just before serving. Enjoy this weeknight dinner with warm bread or pasta to soak up extra sauce!
 
Potato-Crusted Chicken Parmesan
 
Ingredients:
For the Tomato Sauce:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
28 oz San Marzano crushed tomatoes
1 ¼ tsp salt, more to taste
1 tsp dried or 1 tbsp fresh oregano
1 tbsp fresh basil
1 tsp sugar
¼ tsp garlic salt
½ cup water or chicken broth
 
For the Chicken:
3 large or 4 small chicken breasts
2-3 russet potatoes
Shredded Parmesan cheese
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground pepper
2 eggs
½ cup flour
½ tsp salt
½ tsp pepper
½ tsp garlic salt
1 tsp paprika
 
For Assembly:
Olive oil or neutral oil for frying
Fresh or shredded mozzarella
Freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
Fresh basil
