Chocolate Chip Pecan Cookies

A little over a week ago I got an email from my thesis supervisor saying I passed my dissertation, and with a very good grade as well! To celebrate this, I decided to bake some cookies (yes, that is celebrating for me), and guys – they might be the best cookies I have ever baked. They’re […]

Rolo Sea Salt Brownies

I don’t often bake on a whim. Usually, I figure out what I want to bake a few days in advance, put together a recipe, and then bake it. But this week, on Thursday, to be more specific, I decided I wanted to bake brownies. Not just any brownies, though, I wanted to add something to […]

Speculaas Tiramisu

Tiramisu is rapidly becoming my go-to dessert when I need something easy but delicious for a group of people. There’s the classic tiramisu, but this strawberry and raspberry tiramisu is a great alternative if you don’t want to add cocoa or booze.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting

We all have that one friend who seems to have a black hole for a stomach. You know, that person who can just keep eating forever. Oh, and the most frustrating thing: they always stay super thin!

Chocolate Brownie and Raspberry Tart

As I mentioned in my Monthly Recap, I celebrated my 22nd birthday this past week, which is more or less the reason why I haven’t posted anything since said recap… That, and the two deadlines I had this week. Those didn’t help either. Anyway, I’m here now, which is what’s most important! My birthday was […]

Chocolate Orange Almond Marble Bundt Cake

Autumn has definitely arrived now in the Netherlands, and with that has come the first wave of colds and flu. Everyone seems to be ill, as was I this past week. I stayed home from class on Monday and Wednesday, and my lovely dad came over to bring me some groceries, so I could still, […]

Chocolate Brownie Cookies

I don’t have chocolate cravings all that often, but when I do, I usually make my chocolate brownies – my very first recipe on this blog and the only one I know completely by heart. However, I’d recently seen a YouTube video by CupcakeJemma in which she makes chocolate brownie cookies. This intrigued me! Brownies, in cookie form? […]

Oreo Marshmallow Chocolate Chip Blondies

After experimenting with M&M cookies last week, I wanted to make something delicious with Oreos this week. To make it a little bit more decadent, I decided to add mini-marshmallows to the mix as well, and top it off with a couple of chocolate chips. The result: Oreo marshmallow chocolate chip blondies. Quite the mouthful, I […]

Chewy M&M’s Cookies

About a week ago, I suddenly found myself feeling this inexplicable urge to bake some M&M cookies. M&M cookies always make me think of the time when I was about 8 or 9 and my Mum and I tried to make some, but it all went quite horribly wrong. My Mum had accidentally put the oven on grill and […]
