Banana Nutella Brownies ~ 榛子酱香蕉布朗尼

 

 If you are a fan of Nutella, you'll like this decadent dessert.  I've never tried making Brownies with bananas before but now that I've this recipe, I will have another option what to do with over ripe bananas, other than making muffins or banana bread.  These chocolatey Brownies are soft, texture is a bit cake like and can be stored in the refrigerator for a few days and they do taste better, when chilled.

You can make this yummy dessert to serve to your family and friends after a hearty X'mas eve dinner.

Korean Honey Citron Tea (柚子茶 ) Muffins

  I added a few tablespoonfuls of Korean Honey Citron Tea or Yuzu marmalade to a basic muffin recipe and the muffins were delicious. They were soft, nice, not crumbly with a bit of tangy taste of the Yuzu, well accompanied with a cup of piping hot coffee or tea. These muffins taste best when eaten warm.   A few teaspoonfuls of the marmalade mixed with water can be turned into a hot or cold drink to soothe the throat especially if there's a first sign of a cough.
