Coconut cookies

 These are so delicious and egg-free! If you use vegan chocolate, they can be vegan, too! So let's grab a bag of shredded coconut and goooo.

  • 4 tbsp flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder

  1. Start chopping the chocolate (100g total) into little chunks. Then take about 2/3 of your chopped chocolate and melt it over a water bath.
  2. Once it's completely melted, add the remaining chocolate and the coconut oil (1/2 tsp)
  3. Set the chocolate aside and take a pan to toast our coconut.
  4. Add the coconut (90g) to a pan and slowly heat it over medium heat until it is slightly brown and smells delicious.
  5. Add the butter (40g) and stir until it is fully melted.
  6. Transfer the mixture into a bowl and add the melted chocolate.
  7. Combine everything and cover it with some plastic wrap. Then chill for 10 minutes in a cool place.

Raspberry Apricot Cake

The perfect cake for summer is soft, fluffy and has lots of fruits in it - at least, that is my opinion. I love topping it with vanilla whipped cream and serve it with an iced coffee.  Now, if you would like to enjoy a cake like that - I would suggest you try this raspberry apricot cake. It's easy to make ( another one-bowl recipe, yay!), fluffy and soft, and involves the fresh flavors of raspberries and apricots. I top it with some brown sugar to make it even more delicious. Because I am using an 18 cm / 7" pan, this cake bakes a long time in the oven. So, if you do not want to wait that long (which I can totally understand..) I would suggest using a larger pan. The base recipe for this cake is by redcurrantbakery - I used her basic vanilla cake and made my twists accordingly. The original recipe is linked here . If you want to see the full process of baking this cake, check out my Instagram Account @ tamarasbakings for a "Bake with me" video of this cake. RECIPE In...

Himbeer-Aprikosen Kuchen

Der perfekte Sommerkuchen ist weich, fluffig und enthält viele Früchte -das ist zumindest meine Meinung. Ich liebe es, ihn mit Vanille-Schlagsahne zu essen, oder mit einem Eiskaffee zu servieren.  Wenn du auch so einen Kuchen genießen möchtest, empfehle ich dir diesen Himbeer-Aprikosenkuchen. Er ist einfach zuzubereiten (noch ein One-Bowl Rezept, juhu!), fluffig und weich, und er enthält die sommerlichen Aromen von Himbeeren und Aprikosen. Ich streue gerne etwas braunen Zucker über die Aprikosen, um ihn noch leckerer zu machen. Da ich eine 18 cm Backform verwende, muss dieser Kuchen sehr lange im Ofen backen. Wenn du also nicht so lange warten willst,(was ich absolut verstehen kann...), würde ich eine größere Form empfehlen. Dadurch verliert den Kuchen zwar an Höhen, braucht aber weniger Zeit zum Backen. Das Grundrezept für diesen Kuchen stammt von redcurrantbakery - ich habe ihr Grundrezept für den Vanillekuchen verwendet und ihn entsprechend meiner Vorstellungen angepasst. Das Or...
