Valentine’s Day is just around the corner so today I have for you another delicious dessert to bake and enjoy together with your loved ones. I made two easy fillings, a strawberry jelly and a white chocolate & whipped cream filling. To keep it even simpler you could pick just one of the two fillings […]
Valentine’s Day Cake Pops
Cake pops are fun to make and they are (too) easy to eat… so easy that I can never stop at one. Every time we have cakes, other types of desserts and cake pops, of course the cake pops are the first to go! I made regular round cake pops and a few heart-shaped ones […]
Strawberry and Cream Cheese Santa Hats
You better watch out, You better not cry, Better not pout, I’m telling you why: Santa Claus is coming to town. Are you ready for Santa’s visit? Instead of waiting for him with milk and cookies this year, you can place some delicious strawberry and cream cheese Santa hats by the chimney. OK, nothing new […]
Spooky Halloween Cake Pops
Let’s celebrate Halloween with these spooky cake pops! I made them using the same recipe as in my previous post but just used orange and white candy melts to dip the cake pops in. I rolled the crumbled mixture into golf ball-size balls for the eyes as well as the pumpkins. You can give the cake […]
Cake Pops – Red Velvet & Cream Cheese
These cake pops were such a huge hit at our Gender Reveal Party. They were my favourite as well but after the Pregnant Belly Cake I already showed you in my previous post. They taste delicious, are super easy to make and honestly you can’t go wrong with anything that involves red velvet and cream […]
Lard Cookies / Fursecuri cu Untura
These lard cookies are great for any occasion. This is a very basic and old recipe that I know from my mom who used to make these especially around the winter holidays. She always used lard for these cookies but you can use butter as a substitute. The texture will be a little different though […]
Filled Walnut Cookies
I have been looking for a cookie press like my mom used to have for so long. I found a walnut shell mold from House on the Hill, another mold from Golda’s Kitchen that you can place in the oven, but nothing like my mom’s cast iron mold. You can definitely use the other two […]
Plum Tart
I love plums and this Fall I was lucky as I had the chance to eat as many as I liked right from my grandma’s backyard (visited her in the Fall for the first time in 8 years). Now we’re home… no plum trees in the backyard but a great farmers’ market nearby. We went […]
Grilled Banana Sauce with Vanilla Ice Cream
Ok, I’ve made this a while ago, when it was still hot outside, but didn’t get a chance to post the recipe. I thought it would be a good idea to post this recipe before it starts snowing : )))… or who knows, maybe some people like eating ice cream in winter more than summer! […]
