Baltic Sea

TALLINN ♥

16:16


Here is my travel photo diary showing my trip to the Estonian capital last week. Tallinn is a very clean and lovely city. Even better- it is small enough so you can walk practically everywhere by foot. I had been to Tallinn many times but I visited it again after some couple of years. It is undoubtedly more beautiful during summer with hydrangeas, open cafes and restaurants in every corner. 
I am sharing some adresses and tips for those who are planning their trip to Scandinavia and Baltic States. Hope you will like it and have a wonderful week!

Brunch

Friday favorites: strawberry cheesecake

22:46


As the strawberry season has started, I decided to bake a delicious and creamy strawberry cheesecake. These warm June evenings is my favorite time for trying new summertime recipes, inviting friends and enjoying the home-made desserts in the garden.This cheesecake with strawberry topping is perfect for filling up a Friday evening by baking. If you are interested in trying it, here is the recipe: 

 Ingredients:

 For the crust:

100 g butter, melted
200 g almond biscuits
(cantuccini)
1 lemon or lime

For the filling:

250 g mascarpone
200 g sour cream
50 g sugar
2 eggs

For the topping:

400 g fresh strawberries
                                           
Recipe:

* Start by pounding biscuits in small pieces for the cake crust. Add the melted butter and the juice of half of lemon or lime. Line the cake form with baking paper, spread the crust in the form. Preheat oven to 160 degrees.
* Then continue with the filling by mixing mascarpone, sugar, eggs and the other half of lemon or lime juice. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
* Bake it for 50 minutes and let the cheesecake cool down afterwards.
* Finally the best part- decorating. Cut strawberries in small pieces for the topping.

Enjoy the cake and have a great weekend! :)
