Almond Truffles Recipe.

As you do the sweets, you will have sure that they are healthier. Therefore, it is worth taking 15 minutes.

I found a recipe on the blog here, but there is also a variety of healthy and delicious recipes. I changed the recipe a little to the ingredients that I had. Most important are the dates, and the rest ... it's what we like {almonds, walnuts, coconut ...}.

ingredients 

125 g of crushed almonds

100 g of organic dates {soak them in water until they are soft enough}

1/4 cup of chocolate powder or cocoa powder

pinch of salt

1 tsp gingerbread spice or cinnamon

agave syrup if you like very sweet

Instructions
Combine dates and crushed amonds {if it is too dry add coconut oil or water which soaked up dates}. Add remaining ingredients except gingerbread spice and process until mixture is sticky to the touch and able to easily roll into balls {leave a little chocolate powder}. Mix chocolate powder and spice to gingerbread, and put into a bowl,  and roll truffles into chocolate powder. 

Enjoy!

How easy was that? These taste absolutely delicious!

Who does not like sweets? A birthday cake.

Finally the main thing - a birthday cake and other sweets.

It was my first birthday cake for my son's first birthday. It's a nice coincidence. I chose simple recipe because I knew that a lot of time I spent on decorating cake.

It's a birthday cake gluten-free & dairy-free.

 I inspired by a recipe for a cake that I found here.

Ingredients

5 eggs,

1 cup (170 g) icing sugar, 

3 cup (500 g) potato flour or curn flour (I didn't use),

200 g margarine for baking (dairy-free)

1 tablespoons baking powder

vanilla extract

1. Prepare the cake form.

2. The eggs mix  an electric mixer on a medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy. Next add the sugar one tablespoon at a time, beating well after each one.

3. Mix together the flour and baking powder in a bown and sift. Then add the egg and mix until just combined.

4. Melt margarine in a small saucepan, pour the boiling it to the mixture and mix just until combine. 

5. Bake for the first 30 minutes at 160ºC and next 170ºC for about 20-30 minutes. 

Enjoy!

I decorated the cake with icing and food coloring.

...and here are the effects of my work :-)

My son loved it.

...and enjoyed.

I made cookies using the same recipe but I used a gluten-free flour for cookies. They were a little bit harder.

...something from the shop

 ...something fresh.
