It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas. At least inside the house. The Christmas tree is standing and decorated, Christmas lights are turned on, candles and the fireplace is lit. The weather is just not cooperating with my ideal imagination of what Christmas and December should look like. But hey, it’s all about food,…

Sweet Sunday – Malteser Cupcakes
There are a couple of products that I just don’t buy because I know myself and I just cannot resist eating the whole darn bag at once. Namely, Doritos Nacho Cheese and Maltesers.However this time I wanted Maltesers and I wanted them bad. So what did I do? I made Malteser cupcakes with even more…
Sweet Sunday – Salted Caramel Brownies
I’m just going to come clean here. I am not a huge fan of chocolate. There, I said it. I like it, but I never really crave it. Except for this one simple combination which makes me want to never stop eating it; sea salt, caramel and milk chocolate. So why not try and recreate…
Sweet Sunday – Glazed Coffee and Cinnamon Muffins
Muffins are one of my favourite baked goods. I mean, they’re small cakes. Besides, they are so versatile, you can tweak the recipe to your own liking. Make them with sunflower oil or with butter. Make them fruity or add some spice. Seriously, what’s not to love?I love to eat them alongside a cup of tea….
Sweet Sunday – Mini Limoncello Cheesecakes
Won’t you just look at these cuties? Aren’t they gorgeous?Their looks aren’t all they have got going for them. These little cheesecakes have a wonderful fresh flavour coming from the tangy lemon. The surprise comes later when after the first taste the limoncello joins the party. Although it’s quite a heavy liqueur (at least for me…

Sweet Sunday – Blueberry Nutella Brownie
I have previously talked about my undying love for Nutella. So a recipe like this was long overdue. Better late than never, right. Also, it’s kind of a celebration present to myself for successfully finishing my placement, which means one step closer to graduation! Party-time! We all know (and love) brownies, not only because they…
Sweet Sunday – Traditional Dutch Apple Pie
Birthday means cake. Birthday means choosing your own cake. In my family, birthday means choosing what cake Lisa has to make. This week it was my sister’s turn. Her choice has been the same for many years: Apple Pie. I always make the traditional Dutch Apple Pie, which is almost always served with whipped cream,…
Sweet Sunday – Classic French Madeleines
For the first time since 1,5 month, there’s a Sweet Sunday post! And it’s a good one if I may say so myself. I always deemed Madeleines as impossible to make, because 1. I did not have a madeleine tin, and 2. I did not know how to get that soft texture of the cookies,…

Sammarinese? What the hell is that? Well, my dear readers, this is the first recipe ever that I know about which originally comes from the…
