What are your favorite Christmas Cookies? The classic ones? Here in Germany, the most common Christmas Cookies are probably easy biscuit cookies, sandwich cookies and cinnamon stars – all recipes you can already find on my blog ;) This year I decided to make a batch of new cookies: Orange Pecan Chocolate Cookies! Really nice ones! They earned a spot on the “must bake list” for next Christmas and the ones following!
I wanted to do something with candy eyes for quite some time. I had some leftovers from my Halloween Monster Cookies and I did not want them to go bad. You know – an open bag of eyes does not stay fresh for too long… juuuust kidding ;) A friend of mine was asking for funny Christmas cookies, so I made these Double Chocolate Speculoos Reindeer Cookies. That’s all ;)
If you are coming from the South of Germany, you are quite used to get cake for Three Kings, but here in Berlin, you have to make it yourself. I was the other day in a bakery around the corner and they did not even know that kind of cake :P
I know – it is a bit late to make Christmas cookies now – but it is Cookie Friday and you deserve cookies! That’s why I made these little fellas here ;) Happy Cookie Friday!
Macarons are perfect any day of the year. In the morning, afternoon and at night. 24/7 365 Days! :P Why? Because they are super delicious and you can ‘adapt’ them to any time or year or season – in summer you make something with berries and in winter you can make them with typical Christmas flavors – for example like these here with gingery cookies – awesome, right? :)
What do you need for your Easter Egg Hunt? Easter Eggs! Why not trying these here instead of hard boiled eggs or chocolate eggs? I bet your your kids will like them (almost) as much as chocolate eggs ;)) I would have liked them as a kid (but we did not know lemon curd back then…).
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 ;)
