No Bake White Chocolate Mousse and Raspberry Trifle

Layered with cake, white chocolate mousse and raspberries this no bake trifle is totally luscious! Quick, easy and so delicious! | manilaspoon.com

I am married to a British guy so we often have desserts in our house! I personally did not grow up having desserts all the time. In fact, it was considered a luxury in our house located at a tiny and somewhat remote island in the Philippines. When I was young, we had it, maybe, once a week usually on a Sunday when my Mom prepared a special lunch for everyone. If we were fortunate, we would have a family size Coke to go with it! And because it's sweet - it may count as dessert....yes, seriously!

Slow Cooker Beef and Beer Belgian Stew


Beef chunks are steeped in Belgian beer in the slow cooker and results in a melt-in-your-mouth delicious stew! This is the best beef stew ever! | manilaspoon.com

We've been to Brussels a couple of times and in each visit we've always had a wonderful time! One thing we truly enjoyed in Belgium is the food....oh glorious food. Brussels is the city where we enjoyed the best fries, best waffles and naturally, the best chocolate! For a foodie like me, it was culinary heaven, indeed! But there is another food from this lovely place that we have totally loved at home and is often requested by hubby as it has become his favorite (insert drum roll here!) - the classic Belgian Stew or Carbonnades a la Flamande, if you want to sound more posh and sophisticated. :)

In 15 minutes or less you can make this easy and yummy classic summer pie that's creamy, fruity-sweet, light and no bake, too. We served this in a potluck and it was a huge hit!

I love no bake desserts in summer especially this particular summer when we experienced quite a heat wave with temperatures in the upper 90s and heat index of over 100 F. I am from the Philippines so I should be used to this muggy weather, I know, but trust me, even I didn't enjoy it a bit! Thankfully, there are many sweet treats to enjoy this summer and to help us cool down, too. Certainly, this Millionaire Pie is one of them!

If you are a regular reader of our blog, you probably already know by now how much we love fried rice in our house. In fact, I purposely cook a lot of rice in one go for the simple reason that we want left-overs. You know why? Because left-over chilled cooked rice is the perfect ingredient for a delicious and perfect fried rice!
