All Recipes for Rosh Hashanah
When thinking about a dessert for the Rosh Hashanah meal, honey cakes are usually the first thing that comes to mind. While they are wonderful, there is no reason to stop there. We have gathered a variety of dessert suggestions that will light up your holiday table this year and ensure a sweet, juicy, and memorable start to the year.
- Alfajores Cake by Karin Goren
If you haven't tried the cake version of Alfajores cookies, Rosh Hashanah is the perfect time. This recipe features a giant cookie base coated in dulce de leche and coconut, topped with white chocolate mousse.
- Chocolate Soufflé
Baking enthusiasts know this is technically a fondant, but for most, it’s the classic individual chocolate dessert with a molten center. Bake for 8-10 minutes before serving, and prepare for the compliments.
- No-Bake Lotus and Mascarpone Dessert
Fast, easy, and oven-free—a great match for a busy holiday schedule. Best prepared shortly before serving.
- Ferrero Rocher Balls
The only risk here is that your homemade version might put store-bought gift boxes to shame.
- Bee Sting Cake
A unique version on this list, as it uses a sponge cake base rather than the traditional yeast dough.
- Apple Cake
Don't be fooled by the name; this isn't your standard apple cake. The secret lies in using a mandoline to slice the apples paper-thin for a stunning texture.
The list continues with 141 options: from the Lotus Marble Cake (№7) and Mango Crepes (№8) to Miki Shemo’s Classic Honey Cake (№105) and Apple Baklava (№141).
Wishing you a sweet and happy New Year!
