MYSTERIOUS: Try giada s lemon torta caprese - What They Never Told You

In anticipation of her birthday on Aug. 22, Giada De Laurentiis is sharing a recipe for one of her favorite desserts ever, complete with a summer-y twist. 

The former “Giada at Home” host put her own spin on the beloved torta caprese, an indulgent flourless cake named for the Italian island of Capri. Traditionally, the recipe calls for bittersweet or dark chocolate, but Giada’s rendition replaces them with white chocolate and fresh lemons instead. The final dessert is a sunnier take on an Italian classic, which Giada herself claims is “even more delicious” than the original.

“It’s much less rich than the classic chocolate version, and I find it to be the most perfect bite with coffee or tea in the afternoon,” she added.
