Recipe – Angie’s Flourless Hazelnut Dark Chocolate Cake
It is as divinely delicious as it sounds – and it’s gluten-free! I’d also like to think that it has to do with Ayurveda in so far as Ayurveda is all about pursuing happiness. This cake definitely made me happy. I am spoiled when it comes to mushy chocolate cakes since I live in Sweden. Swedish kladdkaka (mud cake) is the best, in case you didn’t know. I am very patriotic (or whatever it is called when a foreigner is that) that way. I am just telling you this so you fully comprehend what I am saying when I say the following: Angie’s Flourless Hazelnut Dark Chocolate Cake is the best muddy chocolate cake I have made/eaten. Ever.
Just the way I like my chocolate cake: chewy on the outside … … and real muddy in the center. And did I mention that it’s real hazelnutty, too? -
Recipe – ginger elixir
Not that there isn’t anything to write about – quite the contrary. I have been so busy that the days seem way too short without spending time by the computer (no offense!). And yes, I do plan on writing about all that stuff but for now I’ll just leave you with a recipe I tried out today
so that I can get some more thing done out in the real world without abandoning the site after the first post…Ginger elixir This ginger elixir …
… is upposed to be great for the immune system and to get digestion going. Use about one tablespoon in a glas of water, drink before lunch and dinner.
You need:
1 big piece of ginger (about the size of a fist)
4 lemons
2 lime
3 Tbs honey
2 dl water
10 black peppercorns

Squeeze lemons and lime. Combine juices, add honey, water and pepper.
