If you made it this far let's lighten things up from the greyscale with a nice Italian desert offering. Any of you Italy experts know what this is?

Looks like that dessert has dark chocolate on it, but aside from that, I can’t name it.
No idea. Looks like an English Muffin with a chocolate burp 🙂

Semifreddo al torrone… and yes, I’m watching out for adult onset diabetes (grin), and . Lou
Terrific, poetic photo essay – very enjoyable and with out those needless calories.
That dessert looks delicious, like many good Italian foods, it starts with good ingredients (for 4 persons):
150 gms torrone
1 egg white
100 gms sugar
200 gms cream to whip
2 tbsp toasted hazelnuts, chopped
1 pinch salt
made with one of the most popular Italian Christmas sweets: torrone
