Oatmeal Coconut Raisin Cookies

After all fancy holiday cooking and baking, and overindulging (pigging-out is actually the word), I crave simple things. These are as good as it gets. Freshly baked, they have a great texture – crispy outside and chewy interior. The following… Continue reading →

Schiacciata all’Uva (Sweet Grape Focaccia)

I didn’t follow any particular recipe here, just a general concept of traditional Italian, Tuscany originated dessert. Since the end product turned out mighty tasty, below is the recipe. Maybe someone would give it a try. And this is worth… Continue reading →

Bran Surprise Muffins

This is a great recipe. It’s not just delicious and healthy but unlike the most of muffin recipes, the batter can be made up to a week before and kept in the refrigerator ensuring you have freshly baked muffins any… Continue reading →

Kugelhopf

This is my son’s favorite cake. He calls it the jumping “hop-hop” cake. You can bake it in a 9-cup capacity bundt pan. It will not look that authentic but the taste will be the same.
