Recipe - Moist Banana Chocolate Marble Gugelhupf

LOL I just noticed that whenever I post a recipe for a Gugelhupf, I add 'moist' to the title hihi... but they're all so good! I love finding recipes online! I found this recipe here. It's in German and I tweaked it a tad so my version is below:

You will need:
  • 200 gr butter
  • 180 gr sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla essence
  • 300 gr all purpose flour
  • 2 bananas
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • icing sugar for dusting
Instructions:
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 180C and butter your baking tin.
  2. Mix butter, sugar, and vanilla until creamy.
  3. Add eggs one at a time and mix until the sugar has been dissolved.
  4. Add flour and baking powder to the butter mixture and mix.
  5. Chop bananas and add to the mixture.
  6. Mix until well-combined (if you like banana chunks, dont mix but just stir these under).
  7. Pour half the mixture into the tin.
  8. Add the cocoa powder to the remaining dough and mix well.
  9. Pour the chocolate mixture on top of the banana mixture into the tin.
  10. Use a spoon or a fork to marble the dough.
  11. Bake cake for 50-60 mins.
  12. Let the cake cool down, remove from tin, and dust with icing sugar.
  13. Enjoy :)
Check out my cake, doesnt it look yummy?!

LOL they all look the same right? I only have one bundt cake tin! ;)

Peekaboo! Looking good so far...

I have to admit that one of these slices is eyeing me now and wants eaten. I already had a sneak tasting and it is so good! I want more... ;) If you make this, let me know what you thought also, it is divine!

You must be wondering about any craftiness on my part lately. I am doing multiple projects at once and since a lot of them are presents I cant blog about them until I have actually given them to the people they are for and of course also have taken pictures. So there will be more craftiness, but in the meantime let me just share some recipes with you. Now that I have a new stove I have to use it right? ;)

Scissor Sock Tutorial

Image
Hi all! I've had so many request from friends for these scissor socks that I wanted to share the tutorial with you. I've been sick for a while so this tutorial is well over due. This will be my first sewing tutorial so I hope it's clear enough :) Feel free to make you own or for friends or family, but please don't use it for commercial purposes or make them to sell. It is after all not my pattern. So let's get started :) You need: 2 pieces of fabric with different print Interfacing (with ironing option on one side only) Cord Ribbon 1 button  Beads Cutting mat and ruler Rotary cutter and scissors Some sort of circular template (I use a small plate) Needle and thread Cut the fabric and the interfacing to a rectangle of 9x12.5 inches (23x32 cm). Decide which fabric you want where, this will influence the next step. Use your circular template to round one corner. The fabric you want on the top and bottom of your sock will have t

Easter Prep Stage 3 - Happy Easter!

Happy Easter everyone! I hope you're having a great day and no matter where you are you've had your fair share of Easter eggs whether real or chocolate. :) I was a bit late as usual so had a few last minute projects to complete last night... Lots of cool Easter projects though, let me show you:  I started this at last week's Craft Meet. Everyone around me was knitting and I felt a bit like a 5-year old with my paint chips cutting out eggs, but there was a need for it. I found a great idea on Pinterest and just had to try it. So I rushed to the DIY store and got a pile of paint chips... Taadaa, the Easter bunting! Isn't it the coolest! The original idea was found here (please link to the ORIGINAL POST when adding this to Pinterest if you want to pin this) , and I just love it! The paint chips I used were a little different from what the original post shows, and I thought it would be nice to have some diagonal eggs as well. THAT was not such a good id

Fabulising February - Men's Shirt Dress

Image
Hi everyone! Fabulising February is nearly over and this is the last project I have managed to complete.Tomorrow I'll post a short recap showing all the finished projects. Wanting to go out with a bang, I tackled a men's shirt that the bf bought online many years ago and forgot to return it so I wanted to make something nice out of it. Seems a waste to be throwing away a brand new shirt! Granted, it was white and while probably cotton it was very thick and stiff material. So I dyed it purple. Of course. Once it was purple, I then had to try and do something with it. Easier said than done! I finally found a cute idea for a dress in blogland (didn't save the link though) and I really wanted to try that. But the instructions were super tricky so in the mending pile it went. This is the shirt. Much too large even for the bf but purple at least ;) And a bit wrinkled for being in the bag for a very long time. But with only a little time left in my Fabulising February
