25.01.2022 #GermanRecipe89 This week’s recipe is a German classic when it comes to cakes for a birthday party. The #Maulwurfkuchen (German mole cake) gets its name from its characteristic shape which resembles a molehill. It consists of bananas and lots of whipped cream, topped with a thick layer of chocolate cake crumbs. https://www.kitchenstories.com//maulwurfkuchen-german-mole

15.01.2022 #GermanRecipe110 In April 1832, master baker Gustav Louis Zietemann opened his pastry shop in Eberswalde and started selling the first #EberswalderSpritzkuchen (Eberswald Crullers). 'Spritzkuchen' are fried like doughnuts but the dough, a type of choux pastry, is actually more similar to Spanish Churros. It is first piped into ring shapes on greased squares of baking paper, then fried until deliciously golden, puffy and light as air. https://germanfoods.org/recip/crullers-with-lemon-frosting/
