Chocolate-Muffins with surprise

Hi guys,


this week I will do chocolate-muffins with a little surprise.
They are realy yummy, I mean chocolate is always mhhmmm but with this surprise they are exceptional. I love muffins or cupcakes because you can bring it to every party or you can take it to a visit – they are like a snack ;)


For this recipe you need about 15 minutes and it costs circa 5,50€ (depending on what you have at home).

Ingredients (12 pieces):


200g flour
50g almonds
3 tsbp. of cocoa powder
3 tsp. of baking powder
2 eggs
100g sugar
80 ml oil
300g buttermilk
12 pices of Toffifee
100g chocolate coating

Grease the muffin mold very well, otherwise the Toffifee stick down very slightly. 

But my tip: Take a paper case ;)


1.

Mix the eggs with the sugar, the oil and the buttermilk. After that you stir the flour, the almonds, cocoa powder and the baking powder in. Next you put the batter in the paper cases and press one Toffifee in the batter. (The batter is very fluid, do not be surprised, but then it is very fluffy.)



2. 

Next you put the muffins for 20 minutes into the oven (160°C). Let it rest in the oven (for a short time) and remove immediately. When you are finished, you have to put the chocolate coating into the bain-marie. 
The last step is the easiest one: You decorate the muffins ;)



Which chocolate-muffins do you prefer?

Autumn-Cake (yummy and easy)

Hi!

Yesterday I baked a new cake I've never baked before. When I saw the ingredients, I didn't know, if this cake will be delicious or just OK – you know?!
But I thought to myself “Do not be shy and try it out!“ So I tried it: delicious!!!
It is one of the best cakes I've ever baked. It is with cinnamon and I love cinnamon in autumn/ winter. It smells of spices and they always reminds me of winter. It reminds me of a wonderful day in winter: it snows and you sit by the fireside and drink hot chocolate with whipped cream and cinnamon.
I called this cake the autumn-cake.
Also my family love this cake now – even my sister, normally she doesn't like cinnamon. But she says it was good.

The preparation needs only 15 minutes, but the cake have to bake about 90 minutes. The price for this cake is circa 4€.

Ingredients:

400g sugar
4 eggs
1 small package of vanilla sugar
350g flour
½ small package of paking powder
4 tsp. cinnamon
2 apples (peeled and diced)
0.5 glass of cherries
100g hazelnuts (wholly)






1.

First you have to whisk the sugar with the vanilla sugar and the four eggs up. Then you mix the flour with the baking powder and the cinnamon and fold it in.


2.

After that you peel the apples and cut them into cubes. The next step is, you have to drain the cherries. If you have done that, you can put the apples, the cherries and the hazelnut into the batter and fold it in.
Now the cake have to bake for 90 minutes (170°C) - my tip: Do aluminum foil after an hour on the cake, so it is not too dark.


This is it. ;)


Are you also enthusiastic like me? What is your best cake for this season?

Figs-Almond-Biscuit-Dessert

Hi everybody!


I have to tell you a story which was happend to me yesterday.
I was shopping with my mum and for this recipe I wanted to buy figs. So I went to the supermarket just thinking about my recipe and the ingredients. I went to the fruit-corner and saw apples, pears, bananas but no figs – shit! 'OK' I figuered, 'go to the next supermarket and figs will be there'. I went to the next shop and... Yes, you're right - no figs. So, I was in five supermarkets and there were no figs, just dried figs. I'm sorry about that, normally this recipe is with fresh figs. But I tasted it and it was okay, not so yummy when it is with fresh figs but okay.  ;)

For doing this recipe you need about 10 minutes but it is a little bit expensive because of the maple syrup but you can also use it for pancakes or yoghurt. Costs for this recipe: circa 8,50€.

Ingredients for 4 Person:



4 figs
300g mascarpone
200g natural yoghurt
3 tbsp. of marpe syrup
1 small package of vanilla sugar
130g almond biscuit








  1. First you have to wash and dry the figs (fresh figs). Next you cut 3 ½ of them into cubes. The last half you slice it into four. Sprinkle the figs with 2 tsbp. of the marple syrup and mix it.


  1. The next step is, you scramble the mascarpone, the vanilla sugar, the yoghrut with the rest of the marple syrup. After that you crack the almond biscuit.

     3.  The last step, you put the figs into four small bowls, next the mascarpone creme and after that the almond biscuit – there are on the top and a piece of the fig.

Bon appétit!

Autumn-Pizza

Hey everybody!


Today I've baked a new pizza. I baked it for the first time – I was not sure if it tastes nice, because it is an extraordinary pizza. But when I read the ingredient list, I was thinking that they would be great together.
The pizza called “Autumn-Pizza“ and I have to say that in my opinion it consits of ingredients which are not so typical for autumn but it smack of autumn – bizarrely.
It is an extraordinary recipe – an as I am, I set myself that task ;)

Then I ate it and yes, it was good. I took a bite of it and the batter was fluffy and the whole pizza was spicy but also a little bit sweet and creamy- all in one. But you have to try it yourself.

For this pizza you need about 15 minutes for preparation and for baking about 60 minutes. The ingredients cost about 4,50€.

Ingredients:


For the batter:

500g flour
1 cube of yeast
1 tsp. of honey
250 ml of water
2 tbsp. olive oil
0,5 tsp. of salt







For the topping:

100g sour cream
1 pear
1 twist of leek
50g salami (I use fowl, because I dont't eat pork)
200g camembert
salt
pepper
  1. For the batter you have to heat up the water, it has to be lukewarm. Then crumble the yeast and put it in the water, add the honey. After that you put the flour in a bowl and shape a trough. Next put the water with the yeast, the olive oil and the salt into the trough. The last step is, you have to knead it.

  1. After that draw a veil over the batter and let it prove for 35 minutes. My tip: Let it prove in the oven (50°C, over-and bottom heat). Then you can put the batter on a baking plate.


  1. The next step is, you have to put the sour cream on the patter. Peel the pear, quater it, core it and slit it. Then it has to bake for 15 minutes at 200°C -air circulation.



  1. Next remove it, cut the leek and put it on the pizza. Put the salami on it and cut the camembert, put it on the pizza, too. Season it with salt and pepper and put it in the oven. (10 minutes)
    Ready!
