Heavenly chocolate cake



Ingredients:
100 g butter
150 g dark chocolate (I used Eldorados Dark chocolate for baking, mainly because it doesn't taste like dark chocolate at all with only 20% cocoa)
0,75 dl sugar
0,5 dl cocoa
0,5 dl O'boy dark powder
2 teaspoons of vanilla
2 teaspoons of baking powder
0,5 ml real vanilla powder
3,5 dl flour
1 dl soy milk
1 dl oat cream
1 tablespoon chocolate sauce
50 g chopped dark chocolate(preferably another chocolate than the one you already used. I used Fazer dark chocolate for baking, it contains 44% cocoa)

Preparation Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 175 C or 347 F. Line a baking pan with butter and coconut flakes or breadcrumbs.
Melt the butter and the chocolate together.
Add all the dry ingredients in a bowl and mix.
Add the chocolate sauce, soy milk and the oat cream into the now melted butter and chocolate, add this to the dry ingredients and mix.
Now add the chopped chocolate and mix for just a few seconds.
Then just get it all into the baking pan and pop it in the oven for 20 minutes.
Done!

Sorry for the bad pics!

Hi there!






I haven't been active at all for a very long time, it's only because my life spells chaos.
Anyway, so I have moved around a little but now I have my own apartment with all my stuff!
So I hope I'm going to get started, going to get active.
Right now I'm in the middle of a Chocolate squares recipe, it's in the oven, so later tonight you'll get the first new recipe in months!
I'll hope the passion for baking will start to come back to me now, when I can build up my life again.

I'm actually hosting a cake party in a couple of weeks, then I guess four new recipes will get posted! And I found a wierd bread recipe I really want to try, so I'll guess that end up here to soon.

See you soon!

Apple cake

This recipe I got from someone I know,
But I made it my own and I made it vegan.
The recipe should in reality contain nectarine instead of apple, but now I want apple!


Ingredients:
100 g of room temperated butter
1,5 dl sugar
2,5 dl flour
1,5 dl soy flour, I add it so that the finished thing doesn't crumple so much
1 dl soy milk
1 dl oat cream
3 teaspoons of No Egg
2 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoon baking powder
2 large apples


Preparation Instructions:
Preheat the oven to 175 C or 347 F. Line a small baking pan with butter and breadcrumbs.
Peel the apples and make into slices.
Add the butter with the sugar and mix.
Then add the flour, mix.
Add the soy milk and the oat cream, mix.
Then add everything else and mix.
Then just get it all into the baking pan and put apple pieces in it.
Then take your milkfree butter out of the fridge and take a cheese slicer you warm under hot water, and make butter slices that you cover your cake with.
When everything is covered with butter slices you add pearl sugar over it all, and rather a lot then a little now  pop it in the oven for 40 minutes.
The thing about the pearl sugar and the butter, it will melt together and create a really good and crunchy surface.
It's actually the best part of the cake!






Walnut and raisin bread

Yes, I love walnut bread! It's true, and I also love raisin bread!
So why not put them together and make an AWESOME bread?!?!?



Ingredients:
50 g yeast
5 dl 37C water / 98 F
2 teaspoons salt
1 tablespoon bread syrup
5 dl Manitoba Cream
6-7 dl rye flour
1 dl walnuts
1 dl raisins


Preparation Instructions:
Crumble the yeast into a bowl.
Add the water and the salt and stir till the yeast has dissolved.
Now add the bread syrup and stir.
Add 3 dl of Manitoba cream and 2 dl of rye flour, stir.
Now add the raisins and the walnuts and 2 dl of rye flour, and stir.
Now add the rest of the Manitoba cream, wich is 2 dl.
Now start adding the rest of the rye flour 1 dl at a time and work the flour in throughly before you add another dl.
Now leave it to rise for 40 min.
Tip the dough over on to a wax paper and split the dough into two and form into whatever bread you'd like. I've chosen to make two large breads.
Now let them rise for 40 min.
Heat the oven to 225 C or 437 F. Bake the bread for 40-50 min.
