I started this blog so my daughters could find all of our family favourite recipes in one place. It has actually grown into more than just the family favourites but also other recipes we've tried out in our kitchen. I don't like to fill up the post with alot of chatter. Sometimes there's a little story to tell, but usually I like to get right to the point. So this is for them, but hope you find some recipes that you like as well. I'll be sharing a lot of recipes, and along the way you'll find some crafty things and maybe some helpful hints too! Welcome!

Mock Kataifi

This is by no means a replacement for the real thing, but if you want a fake bake Greek-inspired dessert then give this a try!
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey
3/4 - 1 cup water
1 or 2 cinnamon sticks
1/2 - 1 tsp lemon juice
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
4 muffets or shredded wheat cereal

Start by simmering the sugar, honey, water, cinnamon sticks and lemon juice in a pot for 15 minutes.


Place muffets in a baking dish and pour the hot syrup over top.



Let sit for about 1 hour on the counter, then turn them over and sprinkle chopped walnuts on top. If you want them sopping with syrup just double the syrup recipe and you probably won't have to flip them over. 



With less syrup the muffets stay a little crispy.
