My two children’s birthdays are in October. And this is when I will come up with a crazy cake which I will not make normally. Would you normally have a monkey cake, Elmo cake or Cookie Monster cake for dessert on a regular day?
Apple Crumble Cake
Apples are always in season. But this is fall. And this is the time when you should bake with apples. Just to fill your house with the incredibly delicious aromas.
Rocky Road Cheesecake
One of the reasons that you have to make this cheesecake is you don’t have to worry about the horrifying WATERBATH. This cheesecake does not require this gruelling process. Any cracks will be completely covered by this sinfully-looking topping.
Chocolate Cake with Orange Marmalade and Chocolate Glaze
I was given a pack of Lindt dark chocolate with soft and delicate orange pieces and crispy toasted almond slivers inside. The citrus flavour blends perfectly with the intense dark chocolate. And this was how the inspiration for this chocolate cake with orange marmalade came along.
Tiramisu Cheesecake
It’s been so long since last time I made Tiramisu. Too long that I had no idea that Tiramisu could be presented as a cake. Now since I have to make cakes every now and then because of my very celebratory children, I had to convert a conventional Tiramisu into a cake. Just for their approval.
