Strawberry and Cream Bars

Sunshine-sweet strawberries are essential for the summer. Especially when they taste as good as right now. 
And when mixed with a luscious whipped custard cream, and surrounded by two layers of crunchy oat crumble, you know you are in for an irresistible treat!

Make sure to check out my recipe below to see how easy it is to turn few simple ingredients into this magical dessert. 
All you need are the basic custard cream ingredients - eggs, milk, sugar, vanilla extract and corn starch. If you prefer, you can substitute the corn starch with all-purpose flour, for a similar thickening effect.
You will need your favorite crumble dough, baked into one square layer (for the bottom of the bars) and crumbly pieces for the top. 
How can you say no to something that looks this good?!? 
Once assembled, this dessert needs to be store in the freezer or refrigerator. If you freeze it until it hardens, you will get perfectly clean cut little squares. I strongly suggest to let the bars sit out at room temperature for 30 to 60 minutes before serving for a creamy and soft result

grilled pizza

Before we snuck a grill onto our balcony one glorious day last May, I would regularly show up at friends-with-grills homes with prepared pizza dough and a few toppings in the summer; I love grilled pizza so much that I’d feed a crowd just to get my fix. It was one of the first things I made when we bought our own. The benefits of cooking pizza outside are manifold. With heat  circulating all around  the pizza and the dough resting on open grates instead of a flat tray, I find that you can get more texture — crisp on the outside but staying stretchy within — and flavor — charred spots that will immediately remind you of your favorite brick-oven pizzeria, without heating up your apartment, pretty much the last thing any of us want to do in the summer. Plus, it’s really quick. Once your dough is purchased or prepared, you could be eating your pizza in 10 minutes; not bad for a homemade dinner after a long day. I’ve already discussed at length  my favorite homemade marg...
