But Italian dessert recipes go far beyond these iconic dishes.Something you may want to try is a traditional granita. Most Americans may compare this frozen treat to what is sold in U.S. stores as "Italian Lemon Ice". However, making your own at home is MUCH closer to what you would actually find in any cafe in Italy.Or, if you're going for something a little fancier, but still just as simple, try a creamy zabaglione. This warm and delicious treat will please any crowd. And if you think that sounds good, what about serving a simple fruit salad? Italians treat fruit as a dessert.My mom still offers to peel me an apple or orange after even the most stomach-stretching dinner!
