    It’s looks simple and fancy at the same time. I like some French corner bistro cuisine.

    First picture:Looks interesting. Second picture: I will hunt this down and try it someday. New obsession now that I had Dubai chocolate.

    Tarte Trop is my absolute favorite. Is this recipe in one of
    her books? (I just picked up Dessert Person but haven’t opened it yet)

    What does this taste like? It looks like sugared and creamed cornbread in all the right ways.
