In spring this year I bought a little raspberry bush for our terrace – hoping we could harvest so many raspberries so I could make maybe a cake or raspberry scones like these ones here… but well – this dream did not come true! Not at all. That’s why I had to get some from the farmers market for baking. So sad ;(
Do you like butter cookies? Those super-simple cookies your grandma probably offers when you are over for tea or coffee? My grandma did that at least… ;) I think these cookies do not get enough appreciation – that’s why I made a big batch of Butter Cookies with Chocolate and Hazelnuts so everyone can have a bite and enjoy them… ;)
I did not plan to bake anything with plums this year for the blog – I have so many recipes already ;) Well… the universe wanted one more I guess and sent me mirabelle plums, so I had to give in and make this Mirabelle Plum Poppy Seed Streusel Cheesecake. I guess there are worse things that could have happened, so I am not complaining ;)
On a hot summer day, the oven normally stays off in my kitchen. If possible. It can get really hot in my apartment and adding more heat from an oven would be just too much ;) No-bake cakes are a great option on days like that. Normally pretty easy to prepare and made mostly by the fridge. Even though those fridge cakes are the easiest way to get something sweet, there is much more to make in summer. To show you what I like the most, I put a list together with my Top 10 recipes for summer ;)
Cookies are not only good if you make them with chocolate and nuts… even though you could think so looking at the number of cookie recipes I got for cookies with chocolate and/or cookies with nuts ;) Nope… there are many other combinations that work well. For example, everything with citrus is normally awesome – like these Lemon & Rosemary Cookies. So good!
It’s cheesecake time! Last week we celebrated Cheesecake Day – well the world did, I totally forgot about that day (shame on me). I could have posted this delicious Berry Cheesecake on that day since the recipe was done for some time already, but hey… every day can be Cheesecake Day! No matter if in spring, summer, fall or winter ;)) So let’s get the plates ready, I get a knife and we can start enjoying this beauty together…
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 ;)
