Pancakes with Blueberry syrup


  
I was on the lookout for a very simple homemade pancake mix that could be stored and used whenever we craved for some yummy pancakes. Thanks to Nigella Lawson for this finger lickin' good recipe and for getting myself and my family addicted to these light, fluffy, petite, irresistible pancakes with the mouth-watering blueberry syrup. We not only devoured plenty of these pancakes yesterday but my kids wanted these for breakfast even today. How lucky am I to have kids who could read my mind.....

Ice cream Bombe





This one was a BIG hit at my friend's birthday party yesterday, not to mention all that SPECIAL attention that I received for making this wonderful desert.


Being a huge fan of Ina Garten and after watching her Ice cream Bombe  show, I couldn't wait to grab an opportunity to make this. Yesterday's party was the perfect one for introducing this BOMBE


I loved hearing all the ooh's and aah's from everybody when they saw those vibrant colors popping out after it was sliced. 



 For making this, I used store-bought Mango, Raspberry and Soy Vanilla Sorbet and followed Ina's method..

Enjoy this DELICIOUS desert and have a fun time making this.
