We are far away from our family but I try to keep all traditions (well, maybe not ALL, but close ;)) and this cake is one of them. It can be baked any time of the year, but it is Easter when it is an absolute must to have it on the […]
We had a lot of fun taking pictures of that tart. Does the picture above remind you something?
It’s a great dessert and the only bad thing is that one piece won’t satisfy you! One may wonder about the calories and all the fat, but take into consideration fact that the recipe asks for 1 […]
Freckled cake is cute, full of freckles and flavor that will fill your entire house during baking. You will be especially happy if you like poppy seeds. I love them! Even more than potatoes ;). Remember to cover it after it cooled down, as it can dry out easily. I hope you will enjoy it […]
I am at the point where I need to research for new recipes, as I went through almost all my regular ones. For this purpose I have a stack of magazines clippings and cookbooks at home that I go through in search of something that would fit my mood. Do you know what I mean? […]
This recipe was adapted from Cooks Illustrated. I must say I’ve been using their website, magazines and books for a while now and every recipe was always a success. For someone who is still learning (read: me) trusting a recipe is very important. I just hope that one day I will be able to come […]

Ingredients:
3 cups all-purpose flour 4 tablespoons + 1/2 cups powdered sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract […]
By now you probably can tell that I have kind of.. sort of.. a sweet tooth. If this is news to you just check out previous posts :).
I don’t like nuts in the cakes, but I decided to try this Pecan Coffee Cake just because the picture in the magazine was very appetizing. So […]
This year I have more kitchen responsibilities than I am used to, just because I will be preparing Christmas Eve dinner on my own. It will be just for two of us, but still I want to preserve atmosphere of holidays and recreate as many traditional Polish dishes as I can (just so you know, […]
We all know that the best recipes come from our friends, and sometimes from other blogs ;). Years ago, when I was searching for a recipe for my first banana bread I found Simply Recipes blog that I have been following ever since. The banana bread I made was just perfect – moist with strong […]
