Last weekend, there just had to be Cinnamon Rolls. I took the base recipe from my book and did some experimenting with the frosting. Since I have recently become a true caramel lover, I tried a warm caramel nut sauce. So, I simply melted brown sugar, butter, heavy cream (all from the top of the calorie leaderboard) together with almonds. The taste was incredible. Compared to traditional cinnamon rolls the sauce is way thinner and is more 'absorbed' by the…
Sometimes on a Sunday, especially when the weather is bad, I just have to bake something. So this time I was experimenting with apples, peanutbutter and a dark caramel. As a basis for the cake, I used a standard Victoria Sponge recipe out of my book and added 10.000 cal of peanutbutter and a couple of apple slices. To also try something new with caramel, I made it dark. However, I had to be careful there as dark caramel is…

So before the next decoration season comes along, here is everything form a very healthy Easter breakfast with fruit filled Granola shells and Easter buns to a little airwalker bunny enjoying to be in the background of a herb basket.

Looking at it, it feels way more summer'ish than March. My only problem was that at first guests did not really dare to cut it with all those beautiful fruits on top. The recipe is a variation of the New York Cheesecake that you can find in my German book "Backen mit…
Well, Caramel Chocolate Cheesecake with Oreo Crust. Do I need to say more ? I am trying new recipes and this will definitely make the short list. However, as it is Monday, you don´t really want to know what´s in there. The only good news about the bad weather is that low temperatures help with the layering of the caramel and the chocolate.
Since years, this is my favourite cake. Easy to to make, with a warm golden color and a pleasant spicy flavor - just the right thing to enjoy with a cuppa tea on a rainy sunday! I used ginger syrup, which my sister in law gave me as a gift. Unfortunately the hubby hates ginger, I do not know why. Well, who wants a grumpy hubby at home?? So I reserved him a thick slice of banana bread. This should…
