  My day started very happy today. For a long time the weather in Stockholm was gray and snowy and it was really effecting people's psychology a lot.. But this week when I woke up to go work and seeing the sunny mornings  made me very happy. Hearing the birds tweets, feeling the warm of sun behind while walking really rests my soul and I hope Stockholm will be sunny always. I guess spring is coming day by day.

Cheesy Rose Borek

  Today I will introduce you the Cheesy Rose Borek  which I cooked this week and just had time to prepare my blog :) I decided to cook the Cheesy Rose Borek because my husband started to talk about it everyday. As a family we love every kind of borek. Today I will tell you how I make this lovely and delicious borek. 

First of all ingredients: 
5 filo pastry
curd
parsley

For the sauce:

1 Glass oil
1 Glass yoghurt
1/2 Glass milk
2 eggs

  For the inner part of the borek, first we mix parsley and curd in a pot. Stir up the sauce ingredients in another pot. Put the filo pastries over and over and cut them into 4 even pieces (to achieve big triangles) Pour sauce on the triangle surface and then put the cheesy inner part we prepared before to the circular side of the triangle and then roll them.  Pour the sauce to top of the roll also and then bend the rolls from one edge and make a rose shape. After preparing all the rose rolls, put them onto the oily oven tray. Cover the top of rose borek's with egg yolk and sprinkle susame or black cumin. After cooking them here is your rose boreks are ready.

Enjoy your cheesy rose borek :)

Cookies

After long searches finally I found the cookie recipe and decided to make it after collecting the ingredients. Whenever the topic is cookie, it reminds me the cookie monster. We used to watch it all the time when we were child. I liked the cookie monster most in sesame street which is very sweet and eating cookie all the time. I believe it made most of us like cookies and still while I am watching it I desire cookie :)

If anybody haven't watched the cookie monster, I suggest you to watch it and I am sure that you will want to make these sweet and lovely cookies afterwards. You can also do your own taste test as cookie monster :)

Ingredients:

• 200g self raising flour
• 100g caster sugar
• 100g butter, plus extra for greasing
• 1 large free-range egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
  
  
  
  
  First pre-heat your oven at 180 degree Celsius.
  
  
  Mix the flour and sugar together in a bowl, then rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
  
  
  Add the egg and vanilla essence and mix to form a soft dough.
  
  
  Roll out onto a well-floured work surface and cut into rounds. Place on greased baking sheets and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
  
  
  If you wish you can server your cookies plain or by decorating with sugar paste. I decorated my cookies with sugar paste preparing lovely figures. You can also shape your cookies according to your imagination.
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
  

Fruit Basket

Today I have the relaxation and laziness of Sunday :))

I thought on what could refresh me and remove the laziness on me and decided to prepare a fruit basket :) Fruits are basic foods that we all need to consume. They are miracle foods that at least eating one in a day refreshing you and your skin. As we all know the benefits of fruits can not be counted and every fruit has its own taste. I can't say one fruit is better than the other because I love them all very much :) and I can't think of a life without them.

The good part of the fruit basket is it may provide opportunity to the people who doesn't like fruits by shaping or covering them with chocolates. If you wish you can give these fruit baskets as a gift to your friend's in their special days. Nowadays fruit baskets are almost taking the place of flowers because they have beautiful view and delicious taste. It can make people really very happy. You can present a different thing to your loved ones. They will remember and thank you one more time while eating the fruit basket...

As a strawberry lover I used to eat strawberries with powder sugar or icing cream but now I am eating them covering with chocolate. This way it is much more delicious. Frozen chocolate on the strawberry making it nice looking and more attractive but you need to be careful against the charm of these stuff, because we don't want to deal with putting on weight ;)

The fruits I used in the preparation of fruit basket are; 2 green apple, 2 banana, pineapple,  French grape and 10 strawberry. In order to decorate the fruits and change their taste in a better way I used bitter and milky chocolate. Then as if I am preparing a flower bouquet I arranged the fruits.

This is my fruit basket and hope you will like it too. Enjoy the fruit basket ;) 

Cake pops

Today I will mention about the something that is loved by many people and started a new trend in the US and that is Cake Pops. Preparing cake pops are as fun as eating them and while eating them they will take you to your childhood :)

You can prepare the cake pops as you wish. You can shape them or decorate their top, it is up to you. From what I learned and my imagination these are came up.

Tonight my friend has a house warming party and I am planning to give these to him as a gift. I hope these will make him happy.

You can prepare cake pops as a gift for your friends' birthdays, special events or your children and I am sure they will be happy with such a gift.

You can watch this video for the preparation of cake pops :))

I used cacao flavored cake. By using the frosting inside the cake pieces, it turned to dough so that it can be shaped. After shaping the cake pops you can decorate them as you wished.

While I was preparing the cake pops I listened the Rihanna's song which is very successful and sensitive especially it's clip is very plain. If you wish you could also listen this song while you are preparing your cake pops and maybe it will inspire you to create beautiful cake pops :)

Enjoy your cake pops :)
