This is the most delicious rhubarb pudding we have ever eaten. Rhubarb baked beneath a blanket of delicate sponge cake and served warm with a scoop of ice cream. Simply incredible! Simple ingredients, quick preparation and a flavour that feels

This rhubarb bake surpasses even the classic apple Tarte Tatin! It contains everything I love: buttery shortcrust pastry, tangy and refreshing rhubarb, and caramel—not too much, just the right amount. Like the traditional Tarte Tatin, this tart is baked upside down:

Right, this one is going to be easier—but I am not going to let myself become too lazy! 😉 This recipe is quite well known online, although I did not follow it to the letter. The whole simplicity of the method comes down to one thing: the dough is not kneaded

I have always wanted to make these for St Nicholas Day, although I have not always managed to find the time! 😉 These adorable brownie bites are decorated to resemble Santa hats. The combination of brownie and strawberries is absolutely delicious, and at the

There are probably as many recipes for knedle as there are for pierogi! 😉 I make plum knedle using a curd cheese dough based on my Mum’s recipe, and before that, my Grandma’s. I have always made them “by eye”, but for the purpose of the blog I finally weighed

My childhood memory from Poland – oval apple-filled doughnuts. Just yesterday, my sister and I were talking about whether apple doughnuts are oval everywhere. In Słupsk they certainly were! 😉 We prepare the apple filling just like for a traditional apple pie and fill

Coconut and blackcurrant ice lollies are a wonderfully refreshing vegan dessert. Made with just three ingredients and no dairy, they rely on creamy coconut milk (or coconut cream) and the vibrant flavour of blackcurrants. Frozen in ice lolly moulds, they

When someone suggested in the comments under my vanilla rhubarb cake that I should try a similar version with a cheesecake layer, I knew it would be a wonderful variation :). And here it is — a vanilla butter cake topped with creamy white cheese filling, juicy strawberries

Chocolate cupcakes made from the same mayonnaise-enriched batter you may already know from chocolate layer cakes. Enhanced with fruit, these cupcakes are wonderfully moist, rich and intensely chocolatey. Because the sponge is quite delicate, it works

The combination of chestnuts and chocolate comes together beautifully in this light, gluten-free chestnut pudding cake. This chocolate and chestnut dessert is surprisingly simple to make, wonderfully moist and yet remarkably light. As you might expect, chocolate takes

Buchteln, or sweet yeast buns filled with fresh cheese, are wonderfully soft, buttery and generously dusted with icing sugar. This traditional recipe is said to have been brought to Vienna by Czech bakers, where the buns became known as Buchteln. Although they can

Spelt chocolate chip cookies are some of the most delicious cookies you can bake. Slightly crisp, slightly chewy in the centre and wonderfully soft, they owe their exceptional flavour to wholemeal spelt flour, dark brown sugar and generous amount of

A festive Basque cheesecake made with Lotus Biscoff spread and biscuits. Just like every great Basque cheesecake, it is intensely creamy with a beautifully burnt top, but this version also brings sweet spiced flavours and subtle caramel notes. I know many of you
