Can you imagine what the sweetest Christmas tree would be like? I'm sure it would be made of tender branches, with a flavor as delicate as these Christmas pistachio madeleines, with which I suggest making a perfect Christmas fir to preside over the table this holiday season. That is, if it doesn't disappear as soon as you bring it to the table, because the temptation is enormous!

If you want to see how to make a homemade cake that’s also easy, moist, and very aromatic, this recipe has it all! With this orange and pistachio cake you’ll be sure to succeed and I guarantee there won’t be a crumb left once they try it. The cake itself is wonderful, but topped with that orange glaze it becomes spectacular. Paired with a good café con leche, for me it’s one of the best breakfasts.

Today I bring you a show-stopping dessert, one that dresses up a table and invites celebration at the mere mention of its name. This raspberry mille-feuille with vanilla diplomat cream, made with homemade puff pastry, is an absolute delight. I assure you that as soon as you present it at the table, they’ll give you applause. And at the first bite, you’ll receive a heartfelt ovation.

There are cakes that smell like Sunday and this is one of them. This citrus lemon and orange bundt with poppy seeds has that fresh, cheerful note that wins you over from the first bite: it’s fluffy, fragrant, and has the special crunchy touch of poppy seeds.

As soon as the afternoons get shorter, I really feel like making recipes that require turning on the oven. One example is this winter galette, which hides a wonderful filling of roasted pumpkin and feta cheese and has a distinctly Mediterranean aroma, thanks to the thyme and oregano used to season it.

If you enjoy aromatic cakes with a tender crumb and that special something that makes them unforgettable, this orange, cardamom and olive oil bundt cake will steal your heart. It’s a soft, fluffy cake with the fresh scent of orange and a warm hint of spice, making it perfect for relaxed breakfasts, cozy afternoon treats with company, or as a homemade dessert you’ll always crave.

Autumn has arrived, the leaves on the trees are changing color, we've already changed the clocks, and the markets are full of pumpkins! Today I bring you a very sweet recipe: a pumpkin and coconut jam that's as aromatic and versatile as it is easy to make, and I'm sure you'll love it.

Today we're putting a twist on the classic dehydrated apple snack with a much more irresistible version: crispy apple and pear chips coated in chocolate and almond.

They're easy to make in the air fryer, with no added sugar, and combine the best of both worlds: the lightness of fruit and the indulgent touch of chocolate.

How about we put a twist on Dubai chocolate, one of the most viral trends of the past few months? With this chocolate and pistachio crepe roll with crunchy glaze that I bring you today, the twists are literal, because we’re going to roll chocolate crêpes filled with pistachio cream.

Today I bring the recipe for an almond Bundt cake that turns heads: elegant, with a raspberry filling that peeks out in every slice and a glossy glaze that looks professionally made. Best of all, although it seems like a bakery dessert, it's much easier to make than you might think.

When a very chocolatey dessert is what you want at home, these individual coulant-style brownies become the best option: small, intense, and with that gooey interior that makes them irresistible. They are easy and quick to prepare (Claudia's word!, because you'll have them ready in 20 minutes), and I assure you that that moist chocolate center will be your downfall and everyone who tries them.

Few things please me as much as the combination of hazelnuts and dark chocolate. That’s why this hazelnut cake with chocolate chips has stolen my heart. Because of that and also because it has a third wonderful ingredient, which is browned butter, brown butter or beurre noisette. The combination of all of them creates a cake with a delicious flavor and an incredible aroma that, when it escapes the oven, fills every corner of the kitchen.
