There is actually not that much to tell about this cake here. The name says it all I guess: Lemon & Orange Olive Oil Cake. Thank you, and goodbye! ;P Well… there is probably a bit more to tell. About the awesome flavors and the great texture of the cake… the simplicity. Grab a slice and you will see what I mean ;P
Christmas is approaching fast and here in Germany finally some Christmas markets are ready to open up again (after not having any last year). Let’s hope with some restrictions they can stay open this year so we can finally get into the Christmas mood again – with mulled wine, gingerbread, and roasted almonds ;) Those roasted almonds are needed for these Roasted Almonds Chocolate Chip Cookies here. Sure, you could also roast almonds at home, but the ready almonds from the market are good and would make it easier for you to prepare these cookies ;P
You are looking for something healthy? Well… you might want to step away from this recipe then ;) This extremely delicious Tres Leches Cake is not considered good for your physical health. For your mental wellbeing, it’s definitely a good one. This “Bizcocho de tres leches” (the other name for the cake) has it all – great flavors, great texture, and a great number of calories. A winning combination for sure ;P
You see a lot of hearty stew recipes on this blog lately. There are several reasons for that. It’s the season for that kind of dish right now – when it’s cold and wet outside, you neat something to warm you up. The other reason is that I kind of fell in love with those dishes not too long ago. They are so easy to prepare and really delicious with all the veggies you use. Today’s recipe is something for everyone out there living the vegan life, but also for everyone else that just wants to eat less meat and dairy products. This delicious Vegan Potato & Chickpea Stew is one of the best stews I know. For reals ;P
It is getting harder and harder to ignore that Christmas is coming! Here in Germany the season “officially” starts with the availability of Spekulatius (speculoos) cookies and gingerbread in supermarkets – in late August. Bit early, I know ;P Now – in late November – I think it it is actually more appropriate to talk about Christmas cookies and bakes. Late summer seems a bit wrong to me. Well – since it’s a perfect time now, my recipes will start getting more “Christmassy” in the upcoming weeks. Starting with this really delicious Gingerbread Chocolate Bundt Cake Christmas Wreath. The 1st of Advent is coming up soon, so we all have to get ready for the real Christmas madness to start ;P
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 ;)
