Chocolate rolls with coffee icing

November 13, 2012 by Roxana 46 Comments

Chocolate rolls with coffee icing – Soft buttery brioche rolls filled with chocolate chips and drizzled with coffee cream cheese icing. Great at breakfast time with a cup of tea/coffee or even with some cold milk. There’s something about cold weather and rolls. I don’t make lots of cinnamon rolls, I’d rather make a loaf…

Semolina Coconut Cake

  Today we’re going on a trip. Usually I tell you what’s going on in my neck of the woods and around it, but today we’re going to Middle Eastern. Do you wanna know why? Of course you do! My friend Faith Gorsky from An Edible Mosaic just had her first cookbook released: An Edible…

Plum cake

October 9, 2012 by Roxana 25 Comments

My grandma’s small farm had a small orchard. A few apricot trees, few apples trees and mostly plum trees. Several types of plum trees. Some plums ripen during the summer months, some later during the fall. My favorite ones were the Italian plums. Somehow round, juice and easy to have their stones removed. We had only one Italian plum…

Homemade croissants

October 8, 2012 by Roxana 214 Comments

Bonjour! Since I made my own croissants, pane au chocolat and brioche this past weekend I feel like talking French, which is funny because I took 7 years of French classes but still can’t say more than 5 words. And not only that, I’ve even been to France but except for the pastries and cheese,…

Brownie bottom cheesecake

September 11, 2012 by Roxana 78 Comments

Brownie Bottom Cheesecake – a creamy cheesecake baked on top of a rich, chocolate-y, fudgy brownie.  The best of both worlds in one irresistible dessert!  Chocolate Cheesecake is the best dessert ever!

Chocolate cupcakes with coffee cream cheese frosting

September 9, 2012 by Roxana 35 Comments

One of the easiest cupcakes I’ve made in a long time, these chocolate cupcakes with coffee cream cheese frosting are a great choice for both chocolate and coffee lovers I tend to believe as one grows older has a harder time taking decisions. For example me. I have been making my own birthday cake for…

Low-fat banana brownies

July 11, 2012 by Roxana 33 Comments

I hated when we were left without power. I wasn’t worried I had no AC and outside there were over 100 degrees, my first thought was : my phone is not charged! and so is my Ipad and laptop. I can’t get online 🙁 I’m a little ashamed to admit it, but that’s the truth….

Pull apart cheese herb bread

July 10, 2012 by Roxana Leave a Comment

My bread is filled with a combo between cheddar cheese, fresh dill and parsley, but just like stuffed pasta, you can use whatever combo you like, may it be cheese, herbs, meat or vegetables. For this bread I used a regular bread dough, nothing fancy, just flour, yeast, and milk. Of course you can use…

Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting

July 2, 2012 by Roxana 31 Comments

There were times I was wondering why some people leave the comfort of their houses to write or read in a coffee shop. You see them everywhere. In Starbucks, in the small coffee shops just around the corner. I never understood what pushes a person to do that. Until I become one of them. I’m…

Chocolate Coffee Cupcakes with Coffee Frosting

May 31, 2012 by Roxana 38 Comments

The idea of these cupcakes came from one of my favorite cookbooks “Chocolate and Coffee Bible”  While thumbing it, looking for new chocolate-y goodness I stumbled upon a recipe for chocolate cupcakes. Now chocolate vanilla cupcakes are always welcome in my kitchen, but the thought of coffee chocolate cupcakes was haunting me. For these cupcakes…

Hi there! I'm Roxana. I have a passion for all things food, a sweet tooth that can’t be tamed and a severe case of the wanderlust. I make midweek meals exciting by sharing approachable recipes, both sweet and savory, that taste completely sinful. Read More →
