Do you need something small to snack because there is not enough time to do lunch? Well… how about some Vegan Cinnamon Energy Balls? Those little energy boosters are ready in no time and can then be taken anywhere you go. A convenient snack you can enjoy any time of the day (or night if you need to) ;P
Another year comes to an end. Somehow I had the feeling that this year passed by much faster than usual. I know that the older you get, the faster the years go by, at least it feels that way, but this year was a bit different. Because of COVID and all the time spent at home, it sometimes seems to me as if the previous pandemic-free years are already far in the past and we’re jetted through 2021 with turbo engines. Oh well. Everything will be better next year. Isn’t that what they say? This should be celebrated properly, with these delicious New Year’s Eve Donuts aka. Berliner Pfannkuchen – that’s what we call it here ;)
Cake pops and I have never really been big friends – at least when I have to make them myself. I actually really like them. Eating them and looking at them. Delicious cake balls covered in chocolate and decorated beautifully – who doesn’t like that?! ;) But after my very first attempt making them a few years ago, I had to realize that there is a lot that can go wrong with these little cakes on sticks. These Brownie Reindeer Cake Pops are not without flaw… but really damn tasty :P
I guess everyone likes donuts. There are only a few people not liking them, right? Of course only if they are done well ;P If those little fried thingies are unfluffy (means too dense/firm) and/or dripping with fat or drenched with a sugar glaze – I’m out. So I guess I like donuts but not all of them ;P I actually prefer homemade donuts. Admittedly, they’re a little time-consuming when you make them at home, but this way you’ll make sure that you always get super fresh and delicious donuts on your plate and into your belly. Just kidding! The final destination of donuts is, of course, not the belly, but the hips! ;P
You would like to have something sweet for dessert now? No problem. If you have some puff pastry in your fridge, some cream cheese, and an apple you can make these delicious Apple Cheesecake Turnovers in no time. Quick and easy recipe and pretty darn delicious I might add ;) Perfect for your cup of coffee or tea in the afternoon. No need to bake a cake for 10 people if you want a small snack only ;P
You’re looking for some quick and easy snacks for the next game night or when you have guests over for a glass of wine? How about some simple Spinach & Feta Rolls? They are ready in no time and very easy to prepare. Skip the mini pizzas from the freezer – they are boring anyway. If you serve these little savory rolls, everybody will think you put in a lot of effort… but no. Nobody will know how easy they are to make ;P
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 ;)
