It’s Cookie Friday and I got some – let’s say – non-traditional cookies today. Well… that is probably not the right way to phrase it. These Fig Rolls (maybe not with the added toffee) have a long tradition, of course, but they are traditionally not called cookies I guess. More like little cakes. But who cakes. I call them cookies now, so they can make an appearance here for Cookie Friday ;)
September is almost over already… time flies by so fast. Seems like Christmas is happening next week and Halloween somewhere in between ;P Just kidding! End of the month means Bake Together – The Baking Surprise with Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte. Our monthly baking event brings us together even though we bake hundreds of miles apart from each other. We decide on one topic, each of us bakes something and we surprise each other with the result. September is the Season for figs so we decided to make that our topic. As you can see on the picture already and with the headline – I made a delicious Honey Fig Fault Line Cake today…
If there was a certain “type” of cake that is popular in our household, then I would say it’s polenta cake. No cheesecake, no cupcakes – nope – it’s polenta cake! If you ever made a cake like that, you probably understand why ;))
Several weeks ago I had massive problems finding fresh figs for a recipe – now they are everywhere! Yay! I love those little fellas so much! :)
I wanted to make this tart for quite some time. Unfortunately fate had other ideas ;)
I have to be honest with you – as a kid I was not a big fan of goat cheese. Nope – just did not work for me.
Guess everybody has one or more dishes, vegetables or foods in general he/she did not like as a kid. It often changes over the years – sometimes not ;) There are not many things I do not eat, but a good example are brussels sprouts in my case – I hated them as a kid from the bottom of my heart. Really. My mom forced me to eat at least one every time she made them. Unfortunately she liked them a lot and made them often – felt like every second day to me… ;) Well – today I love them too! I could eat them every second day! Really ;)
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 ;)
