Cream-Cheesecake

15 years ago I got a piece of creamy cheesecake from a coworkers wife. I vividly remembered the taste of the cake, though not that I actually had the recipe for it. I found it on an old hard drive a few weeks back. The recipe is not the fastest one, but man is it worth the wait. This was, and still is, the best creamy cheesecake Ive ever eaten.

Faschingskrapfen

Faschingskrapfen are a very well known dessert in austria. You can get them all year long, but most ‘Krapfn’ are usually eaten during carnival time. The recipe is amazing, though quite a lot of work. After finishing tweaking this recipe Ill try to get a faster and easier version down for sure.

'Mohnzopf'

‘Mohnzopf’ is a pretty well known pastry in austria. While getting the traditional form down is a bit more tricky, using a bread baking form makes the task very easy. If you love poppy seeds, this recipe is something to try out for sure.

'Nusszopf'

‘Nusszopf’ is basically the sibling of ‘Mohnzopf’. Its pretty much the same thing with different filling. People usually have pretty strong opinions which one is better. Whatever you prefer, I found this recipe is easier to make as the filling is more dense and easier to handle.

Fried Pineapples

I tried to get some decent fried desert for quite a while but without any success. Altering the approach resulted in this recipe. It is nothing that you would get in a chinese restaurant, though it does deliver in colour and crisp. Two factors that are important for this dish in my humble opinion.

Mozart Dumplings

This recipe started out as a joke, though ended up being something really special. Its delicious, but very, very filling. Its intended to be a dessert, though two of them usually totally fill me up, and I would consider them enough as a whole main dish.

Beginner Chocolate Coffee Cake

This is my first try on a chocolate cake. I decided to make the process as easy and fast as possible. Naturally this leaves space for improvements here and there. Though I would argue that, while the process is very simplistic, the result is still pretty fancy. And of course delicious.

This is one of the unhealthiest but best cakes Ive made in a long time. The combination of lemon sugar and poppy is insanely good. Also its gluten free, in case you are in need of a gluten free dessert.

While this was supposed to be the base recipe for more variations to come I decided to add a hint of ginger and a bit of chili to spice it up. The result is sweet, soft, chocolaty and simply delicious.
