Nutella Swirls
If you like cinnamon rolls and cardamom twists, these Nutella swirls are just for you! Here, I've made homemade Nutella, which is really easy and has a distinct and delicious taste of roasted hazelnuts. Of course, you can also just use the original Nutella from a jar. The dough for the Nutella swirls is a brioche dough, which makes it deliciously soft and not too sweet.
Hot Cross Buns
Soft, slightly sweet buns filled with warm spices and juicy raisins, adorned with the classic cross and a glossy glaze. Hot Cross Buns originate from England and are traditionally eaten on Good Friday during Easter. Perfect for the Easter table or as a cozy afternoon bun with butter.
Bailey Layer Cake
My recipe for a delicious layer cake with raspberry mousse and chocolate ganache. The cake is made with Bailey's in both the ganache and buttercream, providing a lovely soft and creamy Bailey's flavor to the cake. I used the original Bailey's, but feel free to try one of the many other variants, such as Bailey's with caramel.
Swedish Chocolate Slices
Swedish chocolate slices are a Christmas classic that offer simplicity and sweetness. These cookies are a staple of Christmas baking traditions, ideal for accompanying a cup of coffee or mulled wine.
