Chocolate Cookies / Čokoladni piškoti

I made these DELICIOUS chocolate cookies today. Everyone loved them and couldn't get enough.

To niso navadni čokoladni piškoti, vendar najboljši čokoladni piškoti. So mehki in polni čokolade!!
Recept je zelo preprost, vendar potrebuje 425 gramov čokolade! Se zavedam, da se to zdi ogromno, vendar so ti piškoti vredni toliko čokolade.

                                           

The cookies are soft and chewy and loaded with chocolate. I wasn't sure if I was willing to use a pound or about half a kilogram of chocolate for these cookies, but these delicious cookies are definitely worth it.

Pintester Movement 2.0 - Crazy Cake / "Nora" torta

I have participated in the first Pintester movement and it was a huge success. I got more than a thousand views from the site, which for me, is a HUGE success. Since this pin test had to be of a pin that Sonja already tested, I decided to test the crazy cake. It seemed pretty simple. And thanks to Sonja's advice, I greased the baking pan before mixing. It was harder to combine all of the ingredients since all of the dry ingredients stuck to the pan, but I scraped it up so the batter was fully combined.

This cake recipe was developed during WW2, when eggs, butter and milk were very expensive, that is why it substituted eggs with vinegar and butter with oil.

My cake turned out looking very similar to the original source's. Yay!

So the directions to make this cake are really simple, and so are the ingredients.

Ingredients:

• butter (for greasing the pan)
• 3 cups flour
• 2 cups white sugar
• 1/3 cup cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons white vinegar
• 3/4 cup vegetable oil
• 2 cups cold water
• powdered sugar (as garnish)

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350° F or 180° C.
2. Grease a 13X9 baking pan with butter.
3. Combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in the baking pan.
4. Make three holes and pour the vanilla extract into the first, vinegar into the second and oil into the third.
5. Pour water over the entire pan.
6. Mix everything with a fork or whisk. Make sure to get everything on the bottom.
7. Bake in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Cool completely and then dust with powdered sugar.

I hope you try this recipe, it is delicious. You don't have to make it in the baking pan, you can always make the batter in a bowl and then pour it in.

Chocolate mousse / Čokoladni mousse

I made brownies last night. I wanted to make them Valentine themed and shape them into hearts. If I wanted to do that, I would get leftover brownies which I really didn't want to waste. That is when I got the idea to make a mousse and layer it between brownie crumbs. GENIUS!

The best brownies ever! / Browniji

I've got a recipe from my mom for these amazing brownies that are really easy to make. They are super fudgy and delicious!

Moja mami je že pred leti dobila izvrsten recept za "brownies" oziroma "rvjavčke". Ta recept je hiter in speče mehke in okusne brownije. Ta recept je tako preprost, da ga z lahkoto lahko podvojiš.
