You are looking for something healthy? Well… you might want to step away from this recipe then ;) This extremely delicious Tres Leches Cake is not considered good for your physical health. For your mental wellbeing, it’s definitely a good one. This “Bizcocho de tres leches” (the other name for the cake) has it all – great flavors, great texture, and a great number of calories. A winning combination for sure ;P
Happy Birthday to meeee! Yeah… you guessed right. As a food blogger, you have to bake your own birthday cake. Unfortunately, none of my friends or family has ever come up with the idea to bake a cake for me. Maybe they fear I could criticize them for the recipe they used or something like that (which would never happen)… but hey – that’s how it has been for years now. Well. This year I decided to make a very small cake only. With all the COVID restrictions and social distancing, there is no need to bake a big one. So this year I will have this Mini M&M’s Cheesecake only for me… or let’s say almost only me. There are always some people who can smell cake from miles away and they will definitely show up ;P
Guess what – I got another idea for a Mother’s Day gift you could make to surprise your mom on Sunday. Something floral but no flowers (they look much better in the garden anyway). Today I got some delicious sugar cookies with floral royal icing decorations. The perfect Mother’s Day DIY project that will put a smile on your mothers face for sure ;)
Rhubarb has been one of my favorites for ages when it comes to baking. These red and green stalks are just great for all kinds of bakes. The flavor of rhubarb isn’t necessarily something everybody likes, but I really love this sweet and sour combination. With this little “Best of Rhubarb” list I would like to show you all the things you can do with this veggie – besides a simple rhubarb compote and rhubarb cakes there is a lot more deliciousness waiting for you! ;)
January and February are generally colder winter months in Germany. This year February hit us hard with a lot of snow and very low temperatures. Sub-zero temperatures all day and night. My mind and body are constantly requesting soul food/comfort food and loads of calories. To get through winter I recommend making these Mini Brownie Chocolate Mousse Trifles from time to time. Chocolate for lifting the mood and the calories for your hips and belly ;P
Carnival celebrations and fried food belong together like Jack and Jill ;P Don’t you think so? If you’ve had too much to drink while partying, a deep-fried snack like this one here can save your life… or at least create the foundation for more drinking action, if necessary ;P Just kidding! You don’t have to drink any alcohol if you want to enjoy these delicious Mutzenmandeln. You can eat them completely sober all year round if you want!
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 ;)
