Chocolate Cheesecake Muffins

It was the last weekend at home before I will go traveling for a month. I had great plans of cleaning, planning the trip, what to pack, writing, reading, and not to forget relaxing. I was terrified. There were so many options. I started slowly, mixing house chores with reading a book, after a few …

Chocolate buckwheat gluten-free cake

This weekend I spent in the most beautiful house in Lanckorona at a yoga retreat. It was Instagram heaven when every element could make a perfect shot. The weather was perfect - fresh mornings turning into a beautiful sunny day when you can still eat al fresco. I hope you had a wonderful weekend as …

Banana bread with almonds

Happy birthday dear little blog! You are 7 years old. I don't know how it happened! There are so many recipes we made together. A bunch of good souls we've met because you exist. I hope you will be a tiny space in the wide universe where I can always come back to and share …

White chocolate cheesecake with a hint of vanilla and orange

I'm very particular about my cheesecake. I like it heavy and dense. It should be a little moist but not too much. I like a cookie base, especially if it's crunchy. I allow some bit of experimenting with flavors, but not chocolate or the pink cheesecakes will always lose to simple vanilla cheesecakes. How about …

Who wants to read about blogger's struggles to write. There are at least four more recipes waiting in a line and somehow I'm sitting and thinking how I like this …

Pain de campange

There was a time when I was making bread because there was no good bakery around. Now there is no excuse, but I'm still drawn into the habit of making a mess in my kitchen by sprinkling it with flour and leaving traces of dough on the sink and kitchen counter. But in the end, …

Chocolate chip walnut banana bread

There is a small shop next to my apartment block. It doesn't have a name, it's just called Delikatesy (the name is popular for grocery stories and often doesn't have anything to do with proper Delicatessen). The area was industrial, but now the apartment and office buildings to spring up like mushrooms. The store tries to supply …

Healthy chocolate muffins

Hello to a new refreshed Magda's Cauldron 🙂  If you see this, it means that migration of my blog was successful. I expect that still there will be some broken links, images, wrong formatting, but bit by bit I will sort it out, I promise. A few weeks ago I was coaching a coworker (I …

Poppy seed butter cookies

I hoped to try more cookie recipes this year, but those three will need to do. Those poppy seed butter cookies are very old school, with just a bit of crunch of poppy seeds. Butter makes tiny layers and they just melt in your mouth. I don't think there is more beautiful smell then one of butter. …
