THE BEST BROWNIES: fudgy chocolate dream

Have you ever dreamed of fudgy, chocolatey Brownies?  Well, I have THE recipe that you're looking for. I changed some classic techniques and replaced a part of some of the most known ingredients to make the Brownies taste even better. So, if you want the perfect chocolate treat -jump to the recipe here. But I would appreciate if you read the following instructions to improve your Brownie -skills.  Let's go! What are the basic ingredients? For the perfect Brownies, you'll need: Butter and Coconut oil: the coconut oil gives the whole batter a really nice texture and makes the taste of the chocolate even more intense.

Chocolate: a Brownie without chocolate isn't a Brownie, right? So make sure to use high-quality chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa (70-80%). Sugar: I used a mixture of normal, g...

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 .

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...
