Peach Tarte

Another thing I came up with because I could not find the thing I was looking for. This is a very seasonal cake and it is easy to make, looks beautiful and is quite healthy. You can make it before hand but it will not stay as good as freshly baked. If you make it, you should eat it the same day I guess if you would like to have some whipped cream or ice cream (vanilla) with this. It is very nice to take for a picnic though and I like it when its cooled down, like sometime the following morning, with a good cup of coffee with lots of milk foam and some cinnamon on the top. Excellent for weekends!

Strawberry Dumplings (Filled)

As a child my favorite recipes in Austria were apricot dumplings. Now I make a few other types. At this time of year strawberries are great, especially during the cool evenings that can crop up. Often served as a meal on their own in Europe. This recipe is the one i use for more formal fussy dumplings and I still use the old fashioned ending which I will tack on as an option. Prep time does not include the 1/2 hour of dough resting.

Vanille Kipferln

Austrian cookie recipe from friends of my grandmother. Vanilla sugar and vanilla confectioners sugar is just sugar with the addition of one vanilla bean to the container. The longer the vanilla bean stays in the container with the sugar, the more vanilla flavor is absorbed by the sugar.

Austrian Topfenpalatschinken – Austrian Sweet Crêpes

A very traditional and extremely delicious Austro-Hungarian dessert, that goes back quite some time. As i couldn’t find it on food.com i decided to post my version in here. I hope you’ll enjoy it! If you can’t get hold of curd you might as well use Ricotta, or a mixture of half Ricotta – half Cream-Cheese. Using low cal products is absolutely fine, but remember: the higher the fat content, the more flavour you usually get :). I converted the European measurements to their US equivalents, but don’t hesitate to experiment and decide for yourselves, whether you like it a hint sweeter, thinner, … etc.
