My grandma's bee sting cake was always my favorite cake when I was a child. However, it wasn't the classic version with two layers of dough and a cream in between. My grandma's cake was a yeast dough sheet cake that was covered with a seductively sweet honey-almond-caramel layer. And this layer is baked into the yeast dough...
These cookies are a poem and melt in your mouth! And there is hardly a simpler, quicker cookie recipe! They are really nice and chocolatey, almost like a brownie. The basis for this recipe is a Nutella cookie recipe from Chefkoch. I adapted it a little because the dark chocolate hazelnut cream that I like to use for them is in …
I don't think there was a single year in my childhood when the smell of freshly baked Christmas Stollen wasn't in the air... For me, Christmas Stollen is just as essential during Advent as cookies, Advent calendars, pyramids, Advent wreaths and cozy coffee by candlelight. My mom learned this recipe from my grandmother and I from...
'Tis the (damn) season! It's starting to get Christmassy on "sizzling, roasting and crunchy"! And we're starting this season with a recipe for reduced-sugar cinnamon stars. I've never warmed to store-bought cinnamon stars. They looked pretty, but I was never convinced by their taste. As a big cinnamon lover, I usually didn't find them spicy...
At the weekend I like to take a little more time to start the day comfortably. This starts with breakfast! I like to prepare something that would otherwise take too long or be too complicated during the week, like waffles, pancakes, crêpes... or even Kaiserschmarrn! With this delicious...
It is inexplicable to me why almond butter costs 7-8 euros in the supermarket. Why is almond butter so much more expensive than nut butter made from other nuts? With pistachios, it is of course understandable, because pistachios are also quite expensive nuts. But with almonds? Why is it not priced in the same range as peanut butter or hazelnut butter? No matter what...
A very simple and at the same time very tasty recipe that is also very high in protein: my baseless cheesecake “The Bomb”! I especially like to eat it for breakfast because it is easy to prepare in the evening and then put in the fridge overnight. You can also be creative and come up with a different recipe…
Every Italien needs to be really strong and push through this one, because this recipe is for sure anything but authentic ... But, it is a very quick recipe, very easy and absolutely delicious. Lots of thanks to my Mom who made this recipe her own and established it in our family's beloved rotation of meals.
For a long time I avoided lemon ice cream. It was never my first choice in the supermarket or the ice cream parlor, so I never really had it in my bag. But as a child I had of course seen the film adaptation of Pünktchen and Anton and one line of Pünktchen's song is...
Most people are always amazed when I tell them how little effort it takes to make your own bread with sourdough! You throw all the ingredients into a bowl and mix them well, then the dough just needs to rise for a while and be stretched and folded twice during that time. Then shape the bread...
