Nutella Brownie

At home, as in many others, we are big fans of Nutella and brownies, because the truth is that we all like chocolate, well my husband, not much, but I have to confess that this brownie drives him crazy. And since we are in Halloween week and around here everything is costumes, crafts… well, we have had to transform some pieces of brownie with Halloween decorations. I hope and wish that everyone enjoys this nutella brownie.

Halloween Spider Cookies

To make these cookies you have to follow the same steps as to make the butter cookies that my little daughter loves so much. The only thing that changes is the shape, which we will not make with any cookie cutter.

Eggplant stuffed with chicken curry

There are many ways to make stuffed eggplants, make them as if for lasagna, stuffed with tuna, or with chicken curry like these. The truth is that both eggplants and zucchini can be stuffed in many ways, and each one in their own way. I change the way I cook them a lot and that way I never get bored.

Thai Cashew Chicken

Thai chicken with cashew nuts is one of my favorites. Every time we go out to eat at restaurants I try to find places where they sell it. So I decided to do it. I have to say that it was not easy, I have tried thousands of recipes and finally after mixing a few recipes, I found the one that I personally love. I hope you all like it as much as I do.

Easy Pumpkin Pie

At home we had never baked a pumpkin pie, and here where we live it is very typical to eat Thanksgiving, which we celebrate in October although in the US it is celebrated in November. It’s delicious, it’s easy and cheap.

The Perfect Bread

Who has not dreamed of having freshly baked bread without going shopping?
Well here we have the solution. And best is that this recipe can be made as a family and everyone can participate. My girls were delighted, kneading, and waiting for the fermented bread to double its volume. Then we made ourselves a sandwich the next day to go on a picnic at the zoo.

Baked Sweet Potatoes

My husband came from the supermarket the other day with some sweet potatoes and the truth is that he did not know what to do. I thought that they would be very tasty if I baked them, but since I am a lover of salads I thought that the mixture of both would be great. Reminds me of the baked potatoes at the fair (In Spain).

Cupcakes doble nutella

Double Nutella Cupcakes

One of my daughters has become addicted to these cupcakes, so I have to bake them very frequently. The truth is that they taste very good and with these amounts I can make about 15 or 16 of them. She is in love with kinder bars, so sometimes before baking them I put a piece of her favorite chocolate, and when she finds it…. she goes crazy. The decoration may vary depending on the occasion, although the base remains the same. I hope you like the recipe and enjoy it as much as she does.

Cremoso de limón

Delicious Lemon Cream

When you suddenly have a visitor or you don’t have much time to surprise with dessert, you can always make this creamy or sparkling lemon that is delicious and is a very good dessert for after very heavy meals. Only three ingredients are needed: evaporated milk, condensed milk and lemons. Let’s not forget that both milks have to be very cold.

My Moussaka

When my father was still alive, I remember that my friends always wanted me to invite them home to eat when my father made lasagna, because it turned out so good. Personally, I don’t like pasta very much, so I took my father’s recipe and replaced the lasagna pasta with grilled eggplant, and the bechamel sauce with a little cream. This way it was easier for me to make and it seemed a little lighter, although with so much cheese…it is a heavy food.
