Nothing beats best friends gathering ♡

Hello everybody.
Sorry for the delay but I had my best friends coming over for a Ramadan evening.
As I entitled the post, nothing beats my best friends gathering, so many beautiful memories gathered throughout the years,though missing our 7’th cheerful Rawan this year, next Summer hopefully♡
I made some cheese pastries, rocca strawberry salad, a new chocolate dessert made of cream and Flakes and upon request 3eish al saraya, promise I’ll post these two recipes after Ramadan for sure.
