Who could resist a pumpkin spice latte? Since it can only be bought at this time of year, it might just be even more delicious. I took the latte as my inspiration and created fall Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes. They consist of fluffy pumpkin sponge cake batter, delicious mascarpone cream and whipped cream icing, and of course, cinnamon on top can’t…

October is here before I know it, and, besides traditional apples and pumpkins, of course I need to use up pears as well. I’m posting the pear cake recipe a little late again this year, but hopefully you’ll still find those four pears in a garden. While scrolling on social media, I came across a photo of a pear cake…

Pumpkin and October is simply an inseparable combination. Plus, as October is almost over, I’m getting a Halloween vibe, so I was in the mood for a black and orange combination. Dark Cocoa Pumpkin Brownie Cheesecake combines a delicious brownie full of chocolate and a creamy fall cheesecake. The crunchy brownie and the creamy cheesecake could also be considered as…

The end of fall is approaching and with it the last opportunity to use the fall fruits. I only had a few pears this year, but you only need four for them for Vanilla Cinnamon Pear Muffins with Hazelnut Crumble. The muffins are beautifully fluffy and soft thanks to the buttermilk. The combination of vanilla and fall spices like cinnamon,…

I think that no-bake truffles of any kind are a traditional part of the Christmas table. I try to vary them almost every year since there are so many possibilities. I’m a chocoholic with all my heart so I can´t imagine Christmas without at least one chocolate dessert. This time, I used chocolate in chocolate truffles, then I added gingerbread spice…

Have you heard about churros? If you’ve been to a food festival before, I bet you do, because they are quite popular there. Fried “beignets” made with the dough similar to choux pastry, rolled in cinnamon sugar and served with chocolate are just yummy. And that says someone who doesn’t even like fried things. These Churros with Homemade Chocolate Sauce…

The pumpkin season is here and in addition to the traditional Hokkaido soup, which is simply a part of the fall, you can also use pumpkin in cakes. For example, this Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread is soft, creamy, suitable as a breakfast or as a dessert and is just full of fall flavor. The bread consists of a fluffy “sponge”…

I continue in the trend of “small” cakes with this dessert. Pear Cream Cheese Cake Bars are kind of a canapé, as you probably eat these nine pieces right away. They are special by adding cream cheese into batter, so batter is soft and creamy. Not soft like a sponge cake, with its density, it resembles more to a brownie,…

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…

Christmas time is here. Christmas songs are playing in a radio for a week now and people are starting to bake. Since I like a gingerbread taste but traditional gingerbread man cookies not so much, I decided to make Stamped Gingerbread Cookies. Stamped cookies are quite a hit for some time now and you can even find embossed rolling pin…

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…

So, fall is here. Yes, I know it is here for a few days now but these temperature fluctuations are relatively new for this year. If it was just warm or cold weather, not changing constantly. I know that fall is here when my body doesn´t want to adjust to these fluctuations and I always get the cold/flu on the…

As I already mentioned on FB, this-year-fruits ripen very soon, it is just the beginning of August and half of plums have already fallen from trees. I just don´t get it. So at least a few of them had to be used in a cake, of course. As you may know, or not, I don´t like a traditional Slovak Plum…

Once in a blue moon, I am in mood for something healthy. After all these sweet desserts I thought that I was about time to make something healthier. I didn´t want to exaggerate it so old-fashioned oats were enough for me, I consider them to be quite healthy. In order to spice up these Banana Oat Chai Spiced Muffins a…

Carrot cakes. They´re popular for a few years by now, but they got in my kitchen just now. Since I think carrot is a part of spring, I chose this Carrot Cake with Mascarpone Frosting as the first this year´s blog Easter recipe. Easter is around the corner, one won´t even notice. This carrot cake is enough even for incoming…

Here we are, December 24. Firstly, I´d like to wish you Merry Christmas, pleasant atmosphere around Christmas tree and also lack of stress, I think we had enough of it so far. Secondly, new recipe is here. Not for a cake, as usually, since you have probably been eating cakes and cookies for few days until now, but for a…

Here comes Christmas baking. I bet that you´re already thinking hardly what to bake for Christmas. I am. I hope that these Orange Shortbread Stamped Cookies could be a small inspiration for you. If you remember the stamped madness one year ago (or maybe even two years ago), I´m still into it, but I guess not as much as I…

I don´t celebrate Halloween nor do I get particularly excited by it, but when I saw the picture of the cookies similar to those of mine on Pinterest, I told myself that they´re soo cute and that I need to make them. So here are Apple Cinnamon Halloween Mummy Cookies. They are made of linzer dough with a hint of cinnamon…
