Pasta for dessert?
We normally think of pasta as being a savory dish but pasta dough is actually quite versatile and can be used in sweet dishes as well.
Some of our recipes call for using traditional pasta with sweet ingredients, like lasagna noodles layered with sweetened ricotta cheese and fruit. Other recipes call for making a sweeter pasta from scratch by incorporating cocoa powder, sugar or other sugary ingredients.
