The half of can of coconut milk went into coconut mousse two weeks ago and the other half went here, into a cheesecake. And not just some cheesecake, but No-bake Raffaello Cheesecake. I´m sure you have already tasted Raffaello so you know it is made with creamy coconut filling, crispy wafer and an almond. All these three ingredients are present…

I discovered a can of coconut milk in my home and I made two desserts. Since to use 400 ml of coconut milk is at once quite difficult, I firstly used the half of a can and made coconut mousse. Add chocolate mousse, ganache and ladyfingers, and Chocolate Coconut Mousse Charlotte is made. Charlotte is a general name for a…

I guess this year´s Easter will be a little bit different then we´re used to, but I believe there still will be some cake on your table. I don´t know why but when I think about Easter, carrot and carrot desserts come to my mind. This year, I made Carrot Cake Cream Cheese Whoopie Pies. They are like a hybrid…

Cupcakes represent various possibilities of batter and icing combinations. If you add oreo cookies, I bet no one will say “no” to them. These Oreo Cupcakes with Mascarpone Icing were a huge hit. Batter is a bit different since you need only egg whites, no egg yolks, then you also need sour cream and oreos. But I guarantee that this…

Banoffee pie is a well-known dessert, made with no-bake biscuit crust, filling made from cooked sweetened condensed milk, fresh bananas and whipped heavy cream. It is a simple not time-consuming tart or pie, the longest it takes to cook condensed milk. Thanks to condensed milk and bananas, it is delicious and sweet so there is no need to add sugar…

I opened my freezer and found strawberries. It´s been a long time since I wanted to make cream cheese dessert, but I generally find cream cheese too dry, so I decided to add fruit, strawberries to be more specific. This way, Strawberry Cream Cheese Cake was born. It is made with fluffy sponge cake, strawberry layer, cream cheese layer and…

It´s been a long time since I made something with coffee and this “no-fruit” winter period is perfect for non-seasonal recipes. I think coffee should be combined with chocolate so I made Chocolate Espresso Tart. It is made with traditional cocoa kneaded dough, dark chocolate filling and fluffy espresso coffee filling. Chocolate filling is actually the variation of traditional chocolate…

Chocolate cups are an inseparable part of Christmas cookies in many households. Chocolate cups filled with walnut filling are a traditional Slovak Christmas dessert but I don´t like this filling so I made them my way and created Dark Chocolate Salted Caramel Cups. Quality dark chocolate together with coconut oil ensures a lovely color, taste and just the right crispiness…

The combination of cocoa cake, whipped cream and sour cream is generally known as “Black Forest”. My version, since I already have a cake on the blog, is Black Forest Cake Roll – cocoa cake roll with mascarpone and sour cherry filling. It is made with soft cocoa cake. The original recipe is inspired by a French dessert – Buche…

Seasonal fruits are gone so here comes the time when I use what I find in the store/in the house. There were mint thins, or in other words After Eight, in sale. Since I already have a cheesecake-tart on the blog, I decided for another variation. Mint and chocolate are an inseparable combination so I made Brownie Mint and Chocolate…

Ricotta was on sale a few weeks ago so I bought two packages. One of them went straight into a chocolate cake. The original recipe is from a French magazine, where the cake is baked in a bread baking pan, but it would be very low so I made it in a round pan. Chocolate Cake Stuffed with Ricotta is…

When I was looking for an inspiration on Pinterest, a picture of a chocolate cake with white filling and ladyfingers dipped in coffee popped out. Therefore, I made my version of Brownie Tiramisu. Traditional brownie cake, which we bake, then apply a little bit of lemon tiramisu filling so the ladyfingers hold better. Then, we add ladyfingers dipped in coffee…

Vanilla Speculoos Salted Caramel Cheesecake could be nowadays considered as a popular dessert; therefore it can´t be missed on this blog either. A subtle vanilla taste of the basic cheesecake, the sweetness and saltiness of caramel is a great combination, no wonder it is so popular. You can find many recipes for this cheesecake on Internet, but this is mine,…

It got a bit cold so I already collected all the fruits from my garden, just to be sure. I collected pears as well and it would be shame not to use them. I decided to make Pear Speculoos Tart. If you ever tried Lotus or Speculoos cookies you know that they have a pleasant caramel and spicy taste. This…

Plums are already falling from trees so something needs to be done with them. For example, this Plum Almond Crumble Tart. It is made with kneaded dough with cinnamon, fresh plums and sprinkled with crumble, which is not ordinary since it composes almond flakes. Firstly, you bake the dough in the oven for a couple minutes so it is lightly…
