Cake Pops. الكيك بوبس - مصاصات الكيك


Cake Pops were my kids's dream since they saw a Cake pop picture for a friend who did it for her daughter's birthday party! I've been searching for recipes and I found them all containg cream cheese that I don't like a lot in Cakes! Then I found a recipe with Vanilla Cake & condensed milk! so I knew the whole idea is about bringing the already made Cake into a soft dough to make small balls & stick them to a stick & cover with icing, so I had some cupcake leftovers & some chocolate frosting so I mixed them together & came up with a very chocolaty Cake pops! I also didn't have the special Cake pops sticks, so I used the wooden skewers that we use in grilling, here we go with this simple and delicious recipe!

Clementine Clafoutis. Clafoutis mit Mandarin. (كلافوتي الكلامنتين (اليوسفي


Clafoutis ,pronounced (klafuti) , is a french dessert made originally with cherries, arranged in a baking dish & covered with a batter thinner then the Cake one . It can also be made with Strawberries ,but I decided to do it with Clementine as we are in the winter season now. Its taste is somehow like a mixture of custard & souffle´ & cake. I like it warm as it's more moist & tender. This is an easy recipe, I did it in small ramekins but you can make it in a big baking dish & cut it into slices. hope you try it & give your feed backs :)
