Mango Mochi 香芒糯米糍


This is a continuation of the mango madness... We love mango so much that every time we buy mango, we buy a whole box, which has 16 fruits. There are a lot of ways to enjoy mango. Mango mochi is one of them.

Basically mango mochi is simply made by steaming glutinous rice flour batter and then wrapping the mango with it. But for this recipe, I incorporated mango puree as a filling in addition to the mango pieces. The result is more mango flavor as you bite into the mochi.

Mango Mousse Cake 芒果慕絲蛋糕


After having the Mango Cheesecake a few weeks ago for his birthday, my son insisted for me to make a mango mousse cake. It seems that the crave for mango has kicked off!

I have made mango mousse cake a few times but this time I tried a slightly different recipe and it turned out better than before.

Tiramisu, soft version 提拉米蘇,軟身版


The Tiramisu that I made previously used gelatin to firm it up a bit so it could be sliced and served. This time I tried a slightly different version that can be served in a cup with no need for gelatin. Its texture is softer but its taste is just as good. I made more than 60 small cups this time for a very special and meaningful gathering.

Mango CheeseCake (No Bake) 芒果芝士凍餅


My son's birthday is approaching. He's been thinking about whether to have a black forest cake or a mango mousse cake. Both are his favorite but I convinced him to try this mango cheesecake that I learned recently. I altered the recipe a bit. This is a no-bake cheesecake and there is only 22g/2 tbsp of sugar added in the recipe (because the mango puree is already sweetened).

Whole Wheat Chocolate Muffins with Oats and Ground Flaxseed


This is an ultra-healthy muffin with whole wheat flour, oats, ground flaxseed and mashed sweet potato. They are so moist, soft and filled with healthy stuff that they are good for breakfast, snack...or eaten any time of the day. Did I mention that they are super easy to make, too?
