This easy tiramisu recipe makes a classic Italian dessert with ladyfingers dipped in coffee liqueur and a sweet mascarpone mixture. I think the layers look beautiful when you make the tiramisu in a glass bowl and dust the top with cocoa powder and chocolate curls.

Grandma's Butter Noodles
We call these grandma noodles though this is my late mother-in-law's recipe — her favorite for flavor and because they don't spring back when you roll them. At every family gathering, she'd make the best chicken and noodles, dropping her prepared noodles into homemade chicken broth along with shredded cooked chicken, then serve them over mashed potatoes. I've made them many times and everyone loves them. When making multiple batches, and lacking counter space, I hang the rounds on clean plastic hangers to dry.
Carrot Citrus Salad
Great for cleansing the palate between heavy courses or for an invigorating salad any time. Use cilantro, fresh mint, or both.
Hard Do Bread
This recipe for Hard Do Bread (hard dough bread) is similar to the one sold in West Indian stores. It's a simple white bread that's just slightly sweet.
