Brownies

Hey guys!

This week I wanna show you a recipe everybody knows – brownies.
They are easy to make and they taste delicious. But these are not the original, my brownies are with cinnamon ;)
My family and my friends love it. I've baked them yesterday, today I wake up, go into the kitchen, want to eat one and all what I saw was: nothing, no brownie... So another reason to bake it again :)


For baking this recipe you need about one hour. The ingredients will cost ca. 5€ (always depending on what you have at home).

Ingredients (20-30 pieces):

For the dough:

200g dark chocolate (75-80% cocoa)
200g butter
4 eggs
250g sugar
1tsp. of cinnamon
160g flour
30g cocoa powder

For the frosting:

3 tbsp. of cocoa powder
1 small package of vanilla sugar
125g powdered sugar
1tbsp. of milk

1.

Melt the chocolate with the butter in a water bath and then let it cool slightly. Then open the eggs with the sugar creamy and beat the lukewarm chocolate underneath. Mix the flour with cinnamon and cocoa mix and stir. 

2.

Put the mixture into a baking pan (rectangular, 30x20cm). My tip: Put parchment paper in it. Put it in the oven at 180°C and let it bake for 30 minutes. Then leave to cool in the mold.

3.

Meanwhile, you have to beat to a froth the butter with the cocoa. Then you add the sieved icing sugar, vanilla sugar and the milk. Beat until creamy. Plunge the cake and remove the baking paper. Sprinkle the brownies with the frosting and cut into small pieces.

Dessert with grapes and cookies

Hey everybody!

Today I'm gonna show you a dessert, which is easy, quick and yummy :)

It is a recipe from my aunt and she did it at Christmas Eve. The special feature of this recipe is that it is with grapes. As a result, the dessert is refreshing and light. And I like dessert more which are light. Another point, it is not so sweet, what I prefer.

For the preparation you need max. 15 minutes. The cost of this recipe amount to about 6,50€.

Tip:

 Leave the dessert standing for two or three hours - the cream can be better distributed and it is even more delicious.

Ingredients:

1kg grapes
250g whipping cream
250g mascarpone
250g curd
100g sugar
1 small package of vanilla sugar
2 packages of “american cookies”

1.

First, you have to whisk the whipping cream until stiff. Then prepare a cream with cottage cheese, mascarpone and sugar and mix with the whipped cream.

2.

The cookies crumble. Place in a large bowl half of the grapes. In spread half of the cream and then add half of the cookies on the cream. Then repeat everything again. Done :)
