Spiced Chocolate-Date Cake


Today I have an easy-to-make chocolate lover's cake for you. I added dates which makes it wonderfully moist, even after a few days. Spices such as cinnamon and gingerbread spice make it perfect for Christmas time. Since it doesn't contain flour, it is also gluten-free.

Blackberry Hazelnut Muffins


These delightful little muffins are very quick and easy to bake, and they burst with flavors. The blackberries give them a nice tartness, and their taste also goes very well with the hazelnuts. You can either use fresh or frozen blackberries. If you plan to use frozen berries, you don't have to thaw them beforehand.

You can also substitute with other berries or nuts, so change them up and you have a new muffin all year round.

Raspberry-Almond Tart



Rarely have I made a recipe I saw on another blog immediately. This one I even made twice on the same week. It is just so good. It looks like a regular raspberry tart, but the almond cream makes all the difference. The buttery crust, the sweet frangipane and the creamy pastry cream make the perfect bed for fresh picked raspberries. What a dream! I was fortunate enough to have lots of raspberries from our garden. Even if you don't, go to the farmers market and make this tart. You'll love it.

You can also make tartlets from this recipe, which will give you about six 8 cm (3-inch) round pieces.

Strawberry-Mascarpone Cake


The always favorite pair of strawberry and chocolate come together again in this cake. A chocolate cake is topped with a fruity strawberry mascarpone cream, topped with beautiful fresh strawberries and a strawberry sauce, which oozes down the cake. Mmmmm .... a real summer delight.

No-Bake Lime Cheesecake


If you are like me and miss summertime right now, this no-bake cheesecake is a great dessert to bring a little sunshine on your plate. The oatmeal cookie crust tastes especially good and is a great base for the very fresh and creamy tasting quark-mascarpone cream.
