Are you already in the mood for Christmas and everything that comes with it? Maybe already tired of “Last Christmas” playing on the radio? ;) Well… not everybody is into that whole Christmas madness, but I am pretty sure that most people are into cheesecakes (marvelous jump from one topic to another, right?). This Vanilla Crescent Cheesecake is slightly “christmassy” because of the Christmas cookies on top but mostly “cheesecaky” and delicious. That’s the important message here :P
If you need a lot of Christmas cookies in a short period of time, you should consider making a batch of these Gingerbread Shortbread Cookies ;) Great „Christmassy“ flavors and super easy to make. I know that the weeks before Christmas are stressful for many people, so why making it harder with baking complicated Christmas cookies, right?! ;)
It‘s time for another „Bake Together – The Baking Surprise“ with Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte! This one here should have been our „November Bake Together“ but we thought we move the date to the beginning of December. First of all, because of the theme – which is „favorite food from the Christmas market“ and second of all, because we normally do not bake anything at the end of December between Christmas and New Year. So postponing several days to start In December seemed logical ;) Well. Anyway. It’s all about Christmas markets today and that’s why I made a typical bake called „Handbrot mit Käse und Speck“ aka. Filled bread with bacon and cheese ;)
Today is Black Friday – many love this shopping day after Thanksgiving, some hate it. A lot ;) Well… for me it’s Cookie Friday. That’s my jam :P We could mix those two days together and just celebrate “Black Cookie Friday”! You do not have to shop laptops or other gadgets, just bake… these delicious black Baileys Chocolate Sandwich Cookies. Handsome little fellas – not only nice for Christmas.
It’s time for Christmas cookies – you probably started already baking your regular batches of Christmas cookies, right? Like we all do… to switch up things from time to time I like to adapt recipes here and there so I do not make the same stuff all the time ;) That’s why I have a vegan recipe today – my “veganized” classic Vanilla Crescents – which turned out pretty damn good I have to say ;))
It seems Christmas is around the corner. Since the beginning of November Christmas trees are popping up at each corner, shops get decorated from the floor to the ceiling and some shops already have sales for Christmas themed stuff – so does my favorite coffee trader from Hamburg aka. Tchibo*. Since last week they are selling several useful products for your Christmas baking*. I got some of those products and tested them in my kitchen. One of the many things I made – this delicious Floral Chocolate Sheet cake. A colorful cake for Christmas. Right ;)
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 ;)
