Probably the most popular ingredient for desserts is chocolate. White chocolate, milk chocolate or even dark chocolate? Definitely a dream!
Crêpes
Are you guys in the fall mood yet? I’m really looking forward to fall this year. Something that is definitely part of it for me is crepes. I like to eat them with Nutella, my fiancé loves them with cinnamon and sugar. What goes on a crêpe for you guys?
Blueberry-Hazelnut-Sundae
With the weather being this great, I felt like having a nice sundae. I have to admit that my own contribution here is limited, but I do not want to deprive you of the delicious combination of fruit and nuts. It was just too delicious 🙂 Try it!
“Magnum” Ice Cream Bars
When I think about summer, one thing I always look forward to is sitting outside and eating ice cream. If I had to choose a flavor, chocolate and nut would definitely be on top of the list. As a kid I loved the Magnum ice cream with the chocolate almond coating. So today I decided…
Chocolate Mousse: A Healthy Alternative
My absolute favorite among desserts: chocolate mousse. Best with dark chocolate, nice and fluffy. Unfortunately, not only rich in taste, but also in fat and calories. I make that every now and then, but it’s not something for every weekend. Therefore, I looked for an alternative, and this one has convinced me. Make sure to…
Vegan Date Bites with Coconut & Pecans
The vegan date bites are a great alternative to a regular piece of cake to your coffee. Not using flour makes them gluten-free – so they are great for anyone with intolerance.

Chocolate-Coffee Cookie Dough
Raise your hand, if you licked out the bowl when your mom made a cake when you were a kid. I was one of those kids that loved the dough so much that only half of it ended up in the baking pan. And I have to admit that even today I can’t keep my…
Strawberry-Cookie-Yogurt with Chocolate Topping
When you’re hungry and not at home, you often tend to quickly grab something”to go”. This is then usually quite expensive, does not keep you full very long and is not particularly healthy. This is not how it needs to be though. This yogurt is great to take along. The strawberries give the snack a…
Chocolate Banana Tiramisu
This weekend I was really craving for a sweet dessert. One of my absolute favorites is Italian Tiramisu. I have recreated this recipe to a version that is lower in calories. Instead of ladyfingers, this version uses small Belgian waffles, which also soak up the liqueur and coffee superbly. I also included a layer of…
High Protein Mochi Cake
Who of you knows these tiny, sweet and somewhat sticky rice cakes that are often served as dessert in sushi restaurants? – Actually they are almost a fitness snack … if it weren’t for the added sugar. Last week, I created a high protein version, which does without it – making it the perfect snack.…
