Desserts
Revani
Revani is an Albanian and Turkish cake. It’s dry when baked, and the syrup is what makes it moist and tender. I love this recipe. It’s not greasy like some revani that I have tried. It took me a few tries to come up with the perfect recipe. …

Easy Black Forest Cake
Expecting last minute guests, or short on time to make a delicious dessert? Here is a quick idea I came up with years ago…and its stuck with me all this time. Any one and everyone who has tried it absolutely loves it!
- 1 box devils food cake mix (or homemade cake batter)
- 1 can cherry pie filling or homemade cherry-filling
- 1 container cool whip or sweetened whipped
Prepare cake mix as directed on box, grease bundt pan pour half of batter into pan, spoon over evenly 1/ 2 of cherry pie filling around batter. Cover with remaining batter.
Bake until cooked it might take longer than mentioned on the box because of the cherry pie filling, usually takes 1/2 hour. Check with tooth pick. Let cool in pan for 10 mins, completely cool on serving plate.
Spoon over with cool whip or whipped cream. Top with cherry pie filling, or chocolate shavings. Enjoy!

Kadayif with Cheese -Kunefe
Kadayif with cheese is a popular dessert in the Mediterranean, mostly in the Middle East and in Turkey. It is my favourite way of preparing Kadayif, my kids and husband love when I make this! In different parts they use different cheeses, some may use akkawi cheese while others use unsalted cheese. I use bocconcini balls for this as it is unsalted and stretchy, I also combine it with ricotta only because we like ricotta in this, you can omit the ricotta and use only the cheese, just use more of it.
This kunefe is made with kadayif or kataifi shredded filo dough, other kunefe is made with semolina. Usually when you buy it at the bakery it is thinner and so amazing, I stuff mine with added ricotta which makes it thicker than usual, but we like it like that haha! …
