Zabaglione...This classic Italian custard is made by whisking together egg yolks, sugar, and sweet wine, creating a frothy, airy dessert that is both luxurious and light. You’ll learn how to make zabaglione from scratch, mastering the technique for a perfectly smooth and velvety result. Serve it on its own or pair it with fresh berries or a drizzle of hazelnut spread for extra indulgence.
Almond Biscotti...twice-baked Italian biscotti cookies are crisp, nutty, and utterly irresistible. Perfect for dunking in coffee or wine, biscotti are a beloved treat that's easy to make and even easier to enjoy.
Affogato...this dessert consists of pouring a shot of rich, hot espresso over a scoop of creamy vanilla gelato. The result? A decadent and satisfying combination of bitter, sweet, and creamy flavors—a true Italian indulgence.
Zeppoles with Blueberry Compote...light, airy doughnuts that are fried to perfection. You’ll then top them with a tangy-sweet blueberry compote, balancing the richness of the fritters with a burst of fruity flavor. A dusting of powdered sugar brings the final touch to this delicious dessert.
Hazelnut Spread...Learn how to make your own creamy, luscious hazelnut spread—a nod to Italy’s famous Nutella. You'll toast and blend hazelnuts with chocolate and a touch of sweetness to create a rich, velvety spread that can be enjoyed on biscotti, zeppoles, or just by the spoonful.
