Happy Halloween, Happy Bake Together! Well… the scariest holiday of the year is still some days away, but if you want to make something special you have to prepare a bit in advance. This Halloween Spider Web Pumpkin Chocolate Cake needs some time and attention, so starting a bit early is actually necessary if you won’t want to be in a rush on Halloween. Timing is bloody everything! ;P
Pumpkin season is upon us and that means Cookie Friday also has been taken over by those orange giants. It is quite easy to use pumpkin somewhere in a recipe, so smuggling something in the dough for these soft Frosted Pumpkin Cookies was pretty easy – together with the maple syrup frosting you will get a delicious sweet treat everyone will devour. What more could you ask for?! ;P
Today I am keeping it very simple with a cake that is perfect for “baking beginners”. Everybody should be able to make this cake – even though he or she never had a whisk or mixing bowl in his/her hands before. This Simple & Easy Yogurt Berries Cake does not need high tech equipment … a large bowl and a wooden spoon or spatula are actually fine here. No kitchen machines needed. With a cute little paper DIY most of you probably know from kindergarten, you can also decorate the cake very easily…
Fall finally arrived and that means it is pumpkin season. These orange and yellow bulky thingies are basically lying around everywhere in supermarkets and farmers’ markets right now and blocking everything. Including walkways… well and waiting to be turned into delicious dishes or Halloween decorations – depending on what type of pumpkin it is ;) As a food blogger, I prefer getting those you can cook and bake with – though I don’t mind getting a big one for some carving action sometimes. But today is all about pumpkin in recipes and not about decoration tips – that’s why I got this delicious Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie for you today! It’s so good…
Happy Cookie Friday Folks! I got a fresh batch of cookies for you! You might think „Another chocolate chip recipe? Really?“ Well… these are in fact chocolate chip cookies, but not the regular ones you might get in a bakery or coffee shop. Mine here are better than the regular ones ;) They are made with some additional pecans – which alone would make them already delicious – but the even better addition is miso paste… say what? Miso Chocolate Chip Cookies in da house! ;P
Eating healthy is somehow easier in summer – fresh fruits and veggies are smiling at you from every supermarket, the variety is much bigger than in winter. When it’s warm outside, you don’t want to eat anything really unhealthy anyway that weighs heavily on your stomach. In winter, everything looks different. Loads of sweets and greasy food is served all the time because you have to be ready for the cold season ;) How about a tasty dish that lies right between “healthy” and “feel good”? these delicious Oven Veggies with Lentils, Pesto & Eggs, for example? How about that?
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 ;)
