It’s summer and easy recipes are always welcome, right? My motto right now – less time in the kitchen but still delicious and stunning desserts on the table. It’s possible ;) This Summer Pavlova with fresh fruits and berries is the ideal candidate here – easy to prepare and a showstopper on every garden party… in case you have a garden, otherwise a regular table in the kitchen will do ;)
It’s Cookie Friday! Yay! Somehow it seems the last Cookie Friday happened just yesterday with these delicious Cookie Truffles – but it is actually a week ago. Maybe it’s because I did not do much in between ;) Well let’s focus on these Mini Cookie Fruit Pizzas now – they are all you need to think about at the moment…
Summer and coconut go together like peas and carrots, like bacon and eggs, like babies and boobies, like… I think you get the concept :P Coconut is something that gives me the feeling of summer, beach and a good time. Mostly because I get my cocktails served in coconuts at a beach bar… just kidding! I’m not an alcoholic! Even though there is some coconut liquor in this delicious Buttermilk Coconut Pound Cake… don’t judge me ;P
This summer is kind of cool. I mean, not really cool temperature wise, but we have good weather and a lot of sun this year. If you are on vacation here in Berlin this is nice – if you live and work here it can be hard sometimes. Especially if you try to bake in a kitchen which is located under the roof without any a/c :P The urge to bake something sweet is always there, so quick recipes are welcome to shorten the time in the kitchen. Upside down cakes are perfect for that – like this one here with peaches and blackberries!
Today’s Cookie Friday recipe has probably not much of a connection to cookies when you take a look at the pictures only. Cookies are not the result of today’s new recipe but an ingredient in the dough of these little fellas you can see. Today the cookies got pimped into cute and delicious Sugar Cookie Truffles ;)
It is still too hot for baking to be honest. But the desire for something sweet can’t be stopped by high temperatures, right? ;) So what else can we do? Well… get the fan to the kitchen and heat up the oven. This cheesecakes baked in glass jars with cherry compote are definitely worth the work in a hot kitchen. Fortunately, the cakes are the perfect snack to bring along to a lake or picknick in the woods… so definitely something you should think about ;)
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
