Last week was pretty dull and boring with non-stop rain and cold winds, but what kept me excited was seeing Arvind finalizing the new design for blog. In between all the crazy workload, my sweetheart somehow managed to find time for planning, writing, fixing bugs and creating this new look. I feel SO proud and yes, I know 🙂 I am one lucky girl! This lucky girl decided to make some thing special for her boy, who has a sweet tooth and can never get tired of eating dessert. Just one treat was not enough to celebrate the new look of the blog and so I made two.. one with lots of lemon in it and the other with lots of carrot in it. The idea of carrot pistachio truffles is not very different from the gajar halwa that I had made earlier. This time around, I decided to add some roasted ground pistachio at the near end of the cooking process. It absorbed some of the moisture and also added a crunchy bite. Lemon shortbread bar is adapted from this link. It was in my wish list for a while and what better time to make it than now! I decided to add some slivered almonds for a crispy bite in between. Both the treats came out flavorful and delicious!
