• Marbled Chocolate Cream Cheese Cake (slow cooker recipe)

  

  About 6 months ago my husband got me a slow cooker. This is a new thing to me. For a while it was just sitting on our counter as I had no idea what to do with it. I know that there is many recipes out there for slow cooker but whenever I check them…

• Bread Machine Pumpernickel (Pumpernikiel), or another way to have my coffee

  

  This bread always takes me back to my childhood. It is my mom’s favorite bread. At some point I have learned to like it as well. I have not eaten it for too long, that’s why I had finally decided to make my own. Being honest with you it is not the real deal. It…

• Polish “Babka” with almonds and white chocolate

  

  I suppose to be on bed rest but it’s not that easy when you’re pregnant and when you crave so many different homemade goods. Last week, for example I had homemade chocolate milk pudding for dinner. Four times. What means that for four days I didn’t eat anything else for dinner just my pudding. Oh…

• Homemade Cinnamon Rolls (health-ier version)

  I’ve made those cinnamon rolls twice before I got my bread maker. Each time they came out looking and tasting pretty good, but I wasn’t thrilled with the effect in general. Neither my husband. We ate them with cream cheese frosting which actually made them more enjoyable. Last Saturday I decided to give them one…

• Cheesecake cookies and New Year’s Resolution

  You might wonder what cheesecake cookies have in common with New Year’s Resolution. Well, at the end of the last year I promised myself that I will not have any resolutions for this new year. I actually don’t need them to feel better about myself, I decided. When the New Year came I actually changed…

• Plum cake you can’t NOT like!

  A few days ago I got fresh plums. A whole bag. I like plums and I can eat them fresh. My husband doesn’t like them but, he promised to tried a plum cake. I knew he is not going to like it. This cake reminds me of my first cake I baked for him… He…

• The best way to start Monday – Cinnamon Butterfly

  In my opinion there is nothing wrong with Mondays…, but I totally understand those who hate them… “I don’t like Monday” Polish movie (very funny, believe me!) from 1971  – watching it is a one way how to enter Monday with a good mood. More tasty and multi-international way is to have a fresh-baked cinnamon…

• THE BEST APPLE PIE E.V.E.R

  

  I’ve got a story about apple pie. Polish apple pie is a little different from the American. When I asked my husband if he wants apple pie, I had a Polish version in mind. He was very surprised that we have apple pie in Poland. Also, he though that Polish is the same as American……
