Italian Panettone with Chocolate and Candied Orange Peel

I love peeling back the paper liner and getting everyone a big slice of this towering Italian bread-meets-fruitcake. Bonus points for a crème anglaise drizzle!

Homemade Limoncello Tiramisu Recipe with Homemade Candied Lemon Peel

Homemade Limoncello Tiramisu Recipe with Homemade Candied Lemon Peel

Swapping traditional tiramisu for a limoncello version might be a bold move, but this dish truly won everyone over. My father-in-law Joe even told me he liked it better than traditional tiramisu. You might too—I won’t blame you for sneaking a taste of that limoncello mascarpone cream.

Limoncello Lavender Shortbread Squares

This limoncello lavender shortbread squares recipe is one of my favorite springtime treats. The first time I made them, I thought I’d just sneak a little taste before bringing them out to my guests… but I ended up eating a whole limoncello lavender shortbread square right there in the kitchen.

Homemade Candied Citrus Peel Recipe

Homemade Candied Citrus Peels for Desserts and Cocktails

Candied citrus slices and candied citrus peels are similar, but they’re not the same thing. I love to decorate my lemon squares recipe with candied citrus peel and lavender buds. They’re not just a garnish—their vibrant colors and flavors make them stars in their own right!
