Moist Chocolate Cake

Cooking time: 60 minutes
Servings: 10

This chocolate cake is super delicious and moist with a deep chocolate flavor. The cake contains no eggs, making it a bit easier and cheaper to make. It also means it can be soft in the middle. Top with a delicious chocolate cream. It can be adjusted, for example, with white chocolate instead. The cake is delightful on its own, so the cream can easily be omitted.

Strawberry Pie

A classic strawberry tart with a crispy shortcrust pastry base, sweet almond filling, airy pastry cream, and fresh strawberries on top. A delightful summer tart, perfect for coffee or the dessert table. In this recipe, I use a tart ring to bake the shortcrust pastry, which makes it extra crispy and beautiful. If you don't have a tart ring, you can also use a springform pan or a regular tart pan. However, this will make the shortcrust pastry less crispy, as it won't get air circulating around the edges.
