I love using really butter for all my bakes but it can get very expensive, especially if your me, and bake ALL THE TIME! So I remember when I lived in New York that someone mentioned once that there was a chocolate cake recipe that had … Continue reading Chocolate Mocha Mayo Cake

I’ve made mine as the typical traditional cardamom bun knot with a delicious almond & cardamom paste filling (for extra cardamom flavour because why not! 😉 ) It’s … Continue reading Cardamom Buns

INSTAGRAM: @BAKEDBYAMMNA #bakedbyammna I recently posted a pumpkin Babka recipe , and I’ve made many different kinds of Babka before (recipes you can find on my blog just search for Babka) But as the weather is getting colder it’s the season for cozy foods and dessert. For me cozy is the smell of saffron, and mulled juice, lights in the dark, snow (if you get … Continue reading Saffron Almond Chocolate Babka
