This is one of the recipes from the old Danish Recipe book, I wrote about earlier. Most of the cakes in the book are very simple, and this one is no exception. It is made of egg, butter, flour, sugar, milk, and currant. I have alternated the recipe a little in order to make it…

Vegan Ginger Biscuits
I’ve managed to get infected with the you-know-what, so now I’ll be on a diet of tea and superfoods. And what works better with tea than these delicious vegan cookies? I have decorated them with lavender from the garden (which also makes them taste a little of lavender), but you can also use other ingredients…
Classic Vanilla Wreaths
Happy 4th Sunday of Advent! During my summer vacation I went through a 100 years old Danish pastry cook book. One of the recipes in the book was this vanilla wreath (which I assume is a Christmas cookie). I have altered the recipe so that it is vegan (by using plant based milk and butter)….
Vegan Cookies With Nutella
Here’s a new slightly modified version of my chocolate chip cookies, this time with Nutella! If you don’t want to buy or have vegan hazelnut/chocolate spread, then regular spread works as well (e.g. Nutella). The longer you bake these, the more the spread will soak into the cookies. Consequently, you wont have a soft middle…
Vegan Peanutbutter Cookies
Peanutbutter cookies are one of my favorite type of cookie. And I have therefore made a vegan version of my favorit recipe for them. They taste just as good as “regular” cookies. However, they might be a little more dry when you don’t use eggs, so make sure to accompanying them with a beverage! It…
Vegan Coconut And Lime Cookies
A delicious recipe on cookies with a fruity taste, perfect for the summer, where (I at least) have more desire for fruit than, for example, heavy chocolate cakes. The cookies taste of lime and a hint of coconut. The coconut flakes also give the cookies a delicious texture.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’ve already made a non-vegan version of these cookies. Now, I’ll share the vegan version, since I am currently vegan. The non-vegan version can be found here: I didn’t have time to take a picture of this batch, so many of the pictures are of the non-vegan version. However, they look the same, as you…
Danish Christmas Cakes
Heres another Danish Christmas Dessert. They are called “Jew Cakes” in Danish (not sure why). The dough is very basic and mainly consist of flour and butter and some spices. The cake is garnished with egg, sugar, and cinnamon (and possibly also chopped almonds). These cakes are a treat to make as well, since you…
Danish Brown Cookies
Here’s another recipe on a classic Danish Christmas Cake: The Brown Cookie. Its’ signature-flavor comes from the combination of cloves and brown sugar. Some people like this cake soft, others crisp. However, I believe that this cake should be crispy, unlike a normal cookie. In this recipe a pinch of orange peel has been added…
Peanutbutter Cookies
Is there anything better than sitting inside with a cookie, some hot chocolate or tea and a book, when autumn has brought cold weather and wind? So, here’s a recipe on my second favorite type of cookie! Peanutbutter cookies with white chocolate (can be replaced by milk chocolate). It is always a real journey to…
