Im not yet in Christmas mood. Just a tiny bit, but not enough… there are still so many pumpkins all over the place that want to be used – so why making Christmas cookies?! No! Not yet! Let’s make some Mini Pumpkin Pies instead!
I am switching back and forth between Fall recipes and Christmas this year it seems… I just can’t go fully Christmas yet. Well it’s still November, so I should be fine I guess ;))
Trick or treat!? Halloween is getting bigger and bigger here in Germany it seems. Haven’t decided yet if that is good or not ;P Well – no matter if you are a fan of Halloween or not – today I have a special treat for you: Halloween Pumpkin Chocolate Cupcakes! Happy Halloween!
Pumpkins – Pumpkins – Pumpkins. Everywhere. Told you, there will be more of those orange beauties! It is Cookie Friday again and this time I made some cookies with – well guess – pumpkins!
Have you ever tried a Pumpkin Pie? If you’re from the US the answer is most likely “yes”. Here in Germany, this kind of pie is not very common, but as a huge fan of American cuisine and baking I have, of course, made many pumpkin pies already and I have eaten probably even more ;P I like them a lot. Dunno if many Germans will feel the same when they try a Classic Pumpkin Pie like this one here for the first time… but I really think they are yummy. And if nobody wants a slice – more for me! ;P
When I made this (reeeaaally delicious) Pumpkin Cheesecake the other day, I had pumpkin purée leftover in the fridge waiting to be used. I was not in the mood for pumpkin soup though the weather here in Berlin is screaming for hot soup right now (eating it, covered with a blanket on the sofa and never leaving the sofa again…). What else can you do? Try to make the recipe you’ve done before in a different way – exactly ;) So the result are these Pumpkin Cheesecake Muffins.
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 ;)
