Moussaka is serious Greek comfort food, but with less calories than lasagna. The Italian families all have their own version of Bolognese sauce when making a lasagna, and the Greek families often have their own recipe for Moussaka. I've never been to Greece unfortunately, but I felt a connection when I ate this dish.
This Coffee Sponge Cake has two delicious toppings, a crunchy walnut streusel and a coffee buttercream. The toppings join the two sponge layers and ice the top cake as well, so really that is four layers of toppings, bliss. Toppings like this should be mandatory for all coffee cakes. This was our very special Easter cake.
This delicious cake is full of rich golden pumpkin and aromatic spices and is a cake that will be perfect for your Easter table, to offset all of the other Easter treats coming your way. It is also a large mixture, which will last you throughout the entirety of the Easter holidays if kept refrigerated in a covered container.
Who would have thought that Portuguese Custard Tarts would be so simple to make in a standard Pie Maker? Please believe me they are. However if you don't own a Pie Maker, don't despair, this recipe can easily be adapted to a normal oven. We bought our Pie Maker originally from K Mart, (no advertising intended), it wasn't expensive, but it does the trick.
Dear Friends, Hooray it's Autumn and April, at last. Consequently, there's a transition happening In My Kitchen.

The Autumn showers are also disappearing and the sun is shining, enticing us toward Easter.
