Creole Pralines by Amos Miller

Better than a cookie (sorry bakers, but this is a Creole group) and with the true taste of New Orleans, Creole Pralines are one of the signature treats in the Big Easy!

Ganache Chocolate Nutella by Amos Miller

Use this topping on any thing you wish to enhance with CHOCOLATE, from baked goods to ice cream. It will keep for a couple of days unrefrigerated - a couple of weeks in the cooler.

Papaya Halwa by chef bb

It’s an Indian-style dessert made of semi-ripe papaya. You already heard about a carrot and Moong Dal Halwa. My idea is to mix some health with the sweet.
