Vanilla Crescents

Even though it's not cold here, no Christmas markets are around, Christmas decoration is poor and I have no "Christmas feeling"... today it's 1st Advents Sunday and this means, I need to have some Christmas cookies.



Like every year I started with vanilla crescents. They are my favourite cookies. I love the taste of vanilla with almonds.

marzipan-lime cookies

I found a recipe for marzipan cookies on the internet and since my friends from France brought me a lot of marzipan when they visited us, I decided to bake these cookies.

When I ate one of them I found them a little bland - so I decided to cover them with a lime icing. The combination of the sweet marzipan and the fresh lime is juicy.

Cereal Munchies

Today I experimented with the small number of ingredients I can get here.I baked some cookies with cereals.

To be honest - I'm not sure if I will bake them again because the consistency of the baked corn flakes is a little tough.

Thanks for being interested in my blog - the kitchen fairy.

Yogurt-Pecan Munchies with a touch of cocoa

It's not so easy to get nice ingredients here, but every now and then I'll find something special.

This time I was successful at FTC and got some yogurt drops.

I used them together with pecan nuts and cocoa for a new munchie creation.
