RECIPE: PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE SANDWICHES

Hi there!

It's been way too long since I posted a recipe, so I thought that this week I would share my formula for the perfectly gooey peanut butter cookies.

The phenomenon peanut butter cookies is relatively new to me, but I've always loved peanut butter and these cookies are a recent obsession of mine. They're super easy to make and there are so many different variations possible.

RECIPE: GUILT-FREE PEANUT BUTTER SEA SALT CUPS

Hi there!

I'm very excited for today's post, because this is one of my favourite things to bake at the moment. These peanut butter cups are super easy, absolutely delicious and - best of all - completely healthy! The recipe is originally from Rens Kroes, but I've made some changes, so; here's my version.

Hope you enjoy!

RECIPE: CHRISTMAS LUNCH | BLOGMAS DAY 21

Hi there!

I know I said this yesterday, but CHRISTMAS. It's literally almost here and I couldn't be more excited! I honestly want to ashshdfjdfl away in caps, but I won't, because that's a little bit inappropriate. Although. This is my own blog, after all.

AFHSJFHFHGVNISFH... - just kidding.

Moral of the story, I'm excited. For Christmas, should you be wondering.

RECIPE: NIOMI'S NON ALCOHOLIC MULLED 'WINE' | BLOGMAS DAY 19

Hi there!

Today I wanted to really submerge us all in the Christmas spirit and give you this recipe for non alcoholic mulled 'wine'. If you haven't got any kids or pregnant women around and you don't have to drive home tonight, you can easily make this alcoholic by replacing the grape juice for red wine.

RECIPE: GRANDMA'S APPLE PIE | BLOGMAS DAY 18

Hi there!

Today I wanted to share with you a recipe that I 'learned' from my mum, who learned it from hers. It's a classic in our family, and it's probably one of the simplest and most basic pies you could think of. That doesn't mean it's not absolutely delicious. It's an option for every birthday and every party, because who doesn't like apple pie? If you don't like apple pie, no offense, but why not? It's so good!

RECIPE: GINGERBREAD FILLED WITH ALMOND PASTE | BLOGMAS DAY 3

Hi there!

Today I'm officially going to dive into Christmas, starting with a recipe for gingerbread. There's nothing more Christmassy that a good chunk of gingerbread with almond paste. This recipe is ridiculously easy - I'M SERIOUS - and equally delicious.

RECIPE: AUTUMN PUMPKIN SPICE CAKE FAIL

Hi there!

It's getting cold and Halloween is just around the corner - it's literally tomorrow -, which can only mean one thing. It's Autumn. Some of you have been waiting for it since Christmas, others might not be as pleased with the frequent rain and cold wind that have made their entry in our everyday lives. I include myself in that last category. I do like some aspects that come with Autumn - like I made clear last year in this post -, but I just don't get why people would want to go outside and go for long walks when it's absolutely freezing your blimmin' nose off. Obviously, in films they make it all very romantic with scarves and cuddles and leaves that have turned the park into a beautiful orange and red duvet, but in reality, it hardly ever is like that. For me, anyway.

But, unless I move to California tomorrow, I'm going to have to deal with it - every single year - and I'm planning on doing that by doing one thing, and one thing only: baking. Because if there's anything that can cheer me up in these dark cold rainy days - I'm exaggerating, I know, but you should hear me when it gets to Winter - it's curling up on the couch and watching a movie or reading a good book with a cup of tea or hot chocolate and some home made deliciousness. Should my baking succeed, that is. Sometimes it's absolutely inedible, but yeah, life happens.

RECIPE: EASY CHOCOLATE SNACKS

Hi there!

I'm sorry this post has come so late - Tuesday instead of Sunday, OOPS - . It's not the first, I know. All my post seem to come late, recently. My brain just seems to want to neglect these uploading dates I set, which is really annoying me. Anyway, I'm trying - and I have been uploading two posts a week which is like a really big progress because it used to be like one every two weeks or so! :) -

Imagine a snack, that tastes of chocolate, but not the kind of chocolate that makes you feel sorry for your dentist, no, the kind that makes you feel like you just ate something sweet and sugary, but fresh at the same time. Now add a bit of shredded coconut. And the sweet taste of dates. And some hazelnuts for the texture. THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THIS RECIPE IS ABOUT. And what if I would tell you they're healthy? On top of all of that? HEALTHY. H - E - A - L - T - H - Y. Really? Really!

So. Today I introduce you to...

RECIPE: CARROTCAKE

Hi there!

Today I wanted to share with you one of my favourite recipes of all time; the carrotcake. For the people that have never had a slice of carrotcake, it tastes heavenly and not at all of carrot. This cake is not very quick to make, but it's perfect for a birthday party because you can / have to put it in the fridge overnight.

Also, sorry for the overwhelming amount of photos, but carrotcake is just VERY photogenic ;)

RECIPE: CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Hi there!

Today I wanted to share with you a recipe that I personally LOVE, and that is a recipe for Chocolate Chip Cookies (I'm gonna short that to CCC's for the rest of this blogpost because, ya know #lazyaf). Now there is something that I should say before I get started, and that is that I love this recipe so much because it gives the cookies the taste that they used to have when I was little. Of course, you may not know this taste, or might not like CCC's at all (don't know why you're still reading this then, haha) but this is the way I make them :)

Recipe: Salted Caramel Chocolate Cake

Hi there! 

I'm a bit late with this recipe considering the whole salted caramel hype was happening in Fall 2014... But still, this cake is incredibly tasty, wether that hype is already over or not.

Recipe: When the Weather Outside is Frightful...

... and the fire is so delightful...

I feel like it's been ages since I last uploaded, but guys,

IT'S ALMOST CHRISTMAS! - it's Chistmas Eve, to be exact -

I have been singing Christmas songs non-stop for the last couple of days - read: weeks- and I probably won't stop until the 31st of January :)

Now what I like to do when it's nearly Christmas, is cuddle up on the couch with some hot chocolate and Christmas treats watching Christmas movies. So, to get me in the mood, I made these little pastries with almond and fig.

Recipe: Raspberry Cupcakes with White Chocolate

WARNING! THIS RECIPE WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE FOREVER!

Oh hello!


It is Sunday evening - already?! Ugh there goes my weekend... - and I am sitting in bed with probably more cupcakes than I could ever fit in my stomach. I already ate so much today that I feel like I have a cupcake baby - just very, very full - As I am completely unable to move anything but my fingers, I thought I would show you how I made these delicious monsters - she said, while stuffing her mouth with yet another cupcake -
