How about some plant-based dessert? This Vegan Dessert à la Tiramisù is a true highlight for every dinner… or in case you’re in the mood for something sweet any other time of the day. You can most certainly snack on one of these desserts for no reason at all. Nobody will judge you ;P
Christmas 2021 is over. If you found this recipe here via Google, next Christmas might just be around the corner again…. it doesn’t matter. These Panettone Trifles with Marsala Cherry Compote can be made before and after Christmas. I’d almost say they taste delicious in mid-summer too ;P In summer, however, it will probably be pretty hard to find panettone – this pastry is after, all quite seasonal and strongly linked to Christmas ;)
The cherry season is back in da house! Finally! ;) The little red fruits start popping up in supermarkets and farmer’s markets all over the city again. Currently not from local farmers though, but this will probably change soon. Can’t wait to get a big basket of cherries and just eat them as they are on a sunny day at the lake… childhood memories ;P
Oh well. These delicious Cream Puffs with Cherry Filling I made today can be made with fresh cherries but also work well with frozen cherries or the ones you can buy in glass jars. So no excuse to make them all year round ;P
The time for strawberries is coming up here in Germany. Slowly you can find more and more strawberries from local farmers in the supermarkets and on farmers’ markets. That means a lot of strawberry cakes are about to be baked here soon. Love it! But there is actually much more you can do with fresh strawberries. Delicious bubbly Cobbler with Strawberries and Raspberries, for example! So good and I insist you try this one day ;)
I am always very excited when spring arrives because it means rhubarb is about to come back as well. The time has come – my beloved rhubarb is “back in da house” and I can finally use it again in my bakes! Yay! So let’s start with a simple recipe this year – Rhubarb Crumble with Candied Ginger. It’s sooo delicious!
January and February are generally colder winter months in Germany. This year February hit us hard with a lot of snow and very low temperatures. Sub-zero temperatures all day and night. My mind and body are constantly requesting soul food/comfort food and loads of calories. To get through winter I recommend making these Mini Brownie Chocolate Mousse Trifles from time to time. Chocolate for lifting the mood and the calories for your hips and belly ;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 ;)
