Tart with rhubarb and strawberries.

 

I refresh another old post. I'm pretty busy, so often I reach for the old posts, I hope that you like it.
We started the season for rhubarb, so...

What do I associate summer with? Summer reminds me of all sorts of fruit cakes. Last week, the first time I baked tart with rhubarb and strawberries, and I had "fleshback" I felt the hot summer air on my face, the smell of tarts with rhubarb baked by my mum on Sundays and I heard my and my sis complaint "again with rhubarb".  Today I would have died for this flavor. Again, I bought rhubarb and strawberries, I'll bake another tart, maybe I will call the summer.

The recipe for a simple tart (for the cake tin about 24 cm)

• 125 g butter or other fat
• 250 g flour
• about 3 tablespoons cold water
• 50 g sugar - optimally

Fruits:

• 2 large rhubarb
• 150-200 g strawberries
• powdered sugar

Pour flour into a bowl, add the butter in small pieces, then rub the butter into the flour until combined. . Then, add 3 tablespoons of cold water and knead the dough with your fingers until a smooth dough rise. Gently roll it out and move on the plate. Make some holes in the dough with a fork, then cover with baking paper and covered with peas or rice, then bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. Then, cut the rhubarb into cubes and strawberry slices. Finally, place the fruit on the dough and sprinkle with powdered sugar. Bake for about 20 - 25 minutes. I bake at 170-180 degrees.

Very easy chocolate cake.

Two weeks ago I had a birthday. No one in my house didn't bake cake for me, so I baked it myself. Do you also bake yourself? Mostly, I do not mind it, the more that I rarely prepare dinner. My husband joking that the sweets he only recognizes the jerky.
 I didn't waste time for baking cakes I chose a very easy recipe. Cake always taste good and it is very easy to make. 

Ingredients {Recipe for a cake form with a diameter of about 20 cm}

• 100 g dark chocolate 70%
• 100 g Butter
• 100 g of sugar, preferably cane (approximately 0,5 cups)
• 2 egg yolks
• 2 tablespoons rum or other alcohol
• 1 tablespoon cinnamon
• 50 g of flour (0, 5 cups), mostly I use gluten-free.

 * I baked two cakes, so the ingredients x 2

Method

• Melt the chocolate with the butter {the best -  Place a pyrex glass cup or bowl in a pan filled with 1-2 inches of water and heat on medium, do not allow to boil chocolate}
• While stirring, add successively sugar, egg yolks, rum, cinnamon and flour.
• Bake  maximum 20 minutes at 180ºC

 There's nothing like homemade whipped cream!..but you can use ready-made, and of course strawberries.  

Cake ready - Delicious
