    Classic Brioche

    Guuuys. I don’t know how I haven’t baked brioche before. This classic brioche with a crusty top is all you need in your life. It’s soft, moist, sweet, crusty, everything. Usual brioche is extremely soft and kinda “airy” as it has more eggs and milk, but I like it when it is a little bit more dense, so I put less of them. [recipe-title=”Classic Brioche” servings=”12-14″ difficulty=”medium” time=”2:30-3hr” description=”Classic brioche with a crusty top, perfect for breakfast with some jam and butter”] [recipe-direction] In a large bowl, mix the flour with the salt and sugar Add the yeast to the milk and set aside for 7-10min Add the yeast mixture,…

    Pumpkin Latte

    Fall is my second favorite season. I love not only seeing orange and brown everywhere, but also how it becomes acceptable to spend evenings at home with a hot drink (to be fair, I’m a granny at heart so I’m at home with a hot drink, a good book and some comfy PJs pretty much every day of the year). Also, I love seeing pumking everything, everywhere.  I’m both a coffee and a tea lover, but sometimes it’s good to twist things a bit (I do that a lot, right ?). Hope you like this drink, was definitely good and I can’t wait to make it again x

    Skinny Classic Cheesecake

    People, rejoice. The cheesecake is back. Cheesecake is not especially my favorite dessert, and I’m starting to wonder why actually. This cheesecake was sweet, creamy, perfect. Do it. Do it. Do it. The secret with cheesecake is you can add fruits on top and then it feels healthier as fruits have nutrients (and some other stuff) in them. I was actually supposed to put peached on them, and even bought some canned peaches, but I then realized juicy blueberries look better on pictures (look does matter folks in food. Most of the time 🙄). I ended up eating the peaches, cause, damn! Canned peaches are good. So good.

    Mini Strawberry Tarts with a Digestive Base

    Anyone is as obssesed with Digestives as I am ? These easy to make mini strawberry tarts, with a Digestive base, might be exactly what you need. Strawberry tart and me is the longest running love story ❤ Among the childhood memories I cherish the most, is my parents buying me a strawberry tart from the bakery next to my school, after a long day. The bakery and the school are now closed, but strawberry tart is something I still like to eat whenever I get the chance. It’s cool that I know also get to twist recipes and modify the base. The best part of the tart is the…

    The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Yesterday we had a potluck planned with friends, and as a baker I obviously had to go with dessert. I initially planned to make two recipes, brownies and chocolate chip cookies. The brownies ended up very chocolaty and not to sweet, which I really like, as an occasional eater of 99% chocolate (🙈). However, I know not everyone is the same and some people find dark chocolate bitter. Decided to stick with  chocolate chip cookies, cause they’re easy to make and everyone likes them (…riiight?). These are crunchy cookies you will absolutely love with a glass of milk or just on their own. Tip: for crunchier cookies, bake them for…
