The recipe I'm using is a super simple chocolate chip cookie, the only thing that I'm altering is the ingredient that transforms them into Spooky Cookies. If you want a different kind of cookies you can also transform them by using this simple ingredient.

Yule Ball: Lemon Cake Recipe

By |2018-12-29T20:36:02+00:00December 29th, 2018|Food, Yule Ball|0 Comments

Lemon is one of those fruits that is amazing all year: refreshing in the Summer, comforting in the Winter. We can use it in savory dishes or sweet, in drinks. There are no limits to the use of lemons, plus we can find them all year around! I'm sharing a recipe that I've made for some time now; it's one of those recipes that we know is good and it never fails. Another good thing about this lemon cake it's super easy, fluffy, and full of lemony flavour. Let's get baking!

Halloween Recipe: Monster Pasta

By |2018-10-22T19:11:21+00:00October 26th, 2018|Food|0 Comments

One of my favorite things about Halloween is when you can invent "new" names for food. In this case I wanted to use vampire blood, zombie brains and orc meat. For vampire blood we have the black pasta, which is made with squid ink. What can resemble like zombie brain? Shrimp, of course! And for orc meat? Spinach! And everything put together you will have a super yummy and healthy monster pasta dish to comfort you.

Halloween Recipe: The Apple Pie that wanna be a Pumpkin

By |2018-10-22T19:30:50+00:00October 23rd, 2018|Food|0 Comments

I love scroll through Pinterest, and one thing that always pop to me its those beautifully decorated pies. I think to myself, I can do that for sure! It's all about the cookie cutters, right? Guess what? It isn't! It's more difficult that it looks, or at least it was for me. The good thing is, this is supposed to be a Halloween recipe post, so I'm off the hook (my pie turned out pretty scary and awful looking)! At least I gave it a try, and you should do it, because I had lost of fun!
