Today I wanted to show some support for the German Soccer Team. Go Germany Go! :)
I love raspberries. I could eat them with anything. Anytime. At home, where I grew up, we had some raspberry bushes in the back yard and of course in summer I sometimes came home with red fingers and a red face from eating the berries directly from the bushes – not to mention the spots on my clothes ;)
To all moms out there: Happy Mother’s day!
This recipe might come a bit late to make it today, but there is always another mother’s day coming up – or any other day! I bet every mom would appreciate this kind of cake any day of the year ;)
Linzer Torte is a famous Austrian cake/tart you can find in many different ways. The pastry dough is always with nuts – that’s where the name is coming from (‘Linzerteig’). It’s mostly done with almonds, but you can also use hazelnuts which leads to a stronger nut flavor. For the filling you can use almost any type of jam, but the traditionally used filling is red which gives the Linzer Torte it’s typical look. This recipe uses a topping you can pipe to make the typical lattice decor, but you could also use remaining pastry dough and cut stripes… anyways – I hope you like it.
My mom always made a very good “german” cheesecake when I was young. This has actually nothing to do with this kind of cheesecake I made here, but I wanted to let everybody know, that my mom makes a very good “german” cheesecake :P
