Chocolate Rugelach

I always make a christmas cookie box for friends and family around this time of the year so I was thinking about which cookies I should make this time. I made raspberry rugelach before but never tried making chocolate ones. So, I decided to try making chocolate rugelach this time! I’ve been craving chocolate lately, so this might have influenced my decision… haha

Apple Butter Cinnamon Rolls

I love cinnamon rolls so much. So when I was thinking about what I want to bake with apples, one of my first thoughts went to cinnamon rolls. I then started to think about what I can fill them with, and I came up with apple butter! So here’s some apple butter cinnamon rolls. :)

Apple Oat Cookies

It’s finally fall! My favorite season of the year. I wanted to start off fall with making recipes dedicated to it, so I decided to make a lot of recipes using apples! I have for you some delicious and chewy apple oat cookies made with brown butter.

Fig Pie

It’s finally autumn which means that figs are back in season! I saw a whole package of figs selling for cheap at my local grocery store and I had to buy them to make something with them.After some contemplating, I settled on making a simple but comforting fig pie!

Flourless Chocolate Cake

I love making flourless chocolate cakes as a birthday gift to friends. It’s so simple and easy to make yet tastes delicious! Also, I usually have all of the ingredients on hand. Can you believe that this cake consists of mainly four ingredients?! It has the perfect delicate balance between decadence and lightness. You should definitely give it a try!

Grapefruit Bundt Cake

I love all types of citrus and this is especially true for grapefruits! They’re tart with a tinge of sweetness. That’s why, when I saw this recipe for a grapefruit bundt cake years ago, I had to try it. I tried it. I love it! Haha.

Corn Mochi Cake

I have a friend who loves corn and rice cake, so when I saw this recipe online one day, I knew it would be the perfect birthday treat for her! That’s why I made this and found it to be so tasty yet easy to make! You just throw everything in a blender to mix and then bake. It has the springiness of mochi and the sweetness of corn.

Salt Bread

소금빵 (sogeum-ppang) has been super popular in Korea. It’s a salt butter roll that is super simple but beautifully highlights the plain flavors of butter and salt. I had some on my trip to Korea last year and loved them! They’re based on 塩パン (shio-pan) from Japan and are so good fresh. That’s why I wanted to try making them on my own and I’m so glad I did! :D

Strawberry Matcha Pie

I love strawberry matcha lattes. Which led me to then think, wouldn’t it be great as a pie? So I decided to make a strawberry matcha pie! I made Four & Twenty Blackbirds’ matcha pie as a base and decided to top it with some delicious strawberry whipped cream. Since I paired it with strawberries, I added more matcha to contrast with the flavors better. A perfect recipe just in time for spring! :)

Pear Almond Tart

Pears and almonds are such a great combo. And they’re even more delicious when they’re placed inside a tart! I followed David Lebovitz’s recipe and I love the way that he makes his tart crust. It’s so quick and easy!
