A few days ago I told you about the new trend in cakes: the return to traditional cakes, or naked cakes. With the success they are enjoying, a recipe to encourage you to make one could not be missing.

I've never been much of a follower of trends, and maybe that's why I've never made a fondant cake or cupcakes with coatings or frostings that taste like nothing, despite how popular they are. You won't have seen recipes, products, or supplies for them on the website. I admit it's an art to make them, but they simply aren't for me. But there is one trend I definitely embrace, and that's the trend of naked cakes.

The author of Sabores y Momentos, Patri, brings us today a recipe that will catch many people's attention: cookies made in a skillet! Since there's not much more to say to entice you to read it, I'll leave you with her recipe. Enjoy!

Lately we've been talking a lot about the Bundt cake-style pans. They give a simple sponge cake a phenomenal appearance. But if you also make the cake with care and a few well-chosen ingredients, the result will be exquisite. And that's exactly what Miriam, author of El invitado de Invierno, did by showing us how to make this delicious and beautiful chestnut and chocolate bundt.

I knew that Noelia, La cucharina magina, was delighted with Nordic Ware molds. For that reason I couldn't resist and the last time I spoke with her I asked if she could prepare a post explaining the virtues of these molds and how to use them. If you're interested in these molds, don't miss it!

Luisa Morón, del blog Cocinando con mi Carmela, nos presenta hoy un delicioso bundt cake de chocolate. El bizcocho que nos propone es fácil de preparar y se puede hornear en cualquier molde, pero un molde tipo bundt le dará esa presentación especial y esa textura que tanto nos gusta. Espero que disfrutes de su receta y sus fotos.

Carmen, author of the food blog Yerbabuena en la Cocina, brings us a recipe today that will be very useful, as it will help you make the most of some things you thought were gone. It's extremely easy to prepare and everyone in the household will love it, getting out of bed at the mere smell of what's cooking!

Christmas is something to be experienced, but it’s clear that how much it intensifies also depends on us. As Patri, food blogger at Sabores y Momentos, is an unconditional devotee of these family occasions, she’s the ideal person to recommend a pretty and easy recipe to make a bundt cake that will be fabulous at this time of year (although it will be welcome any time of the year!). Here’s the recipe.

A key trait of a good cook is knowing how to choose the most suitable ingredients for each season. While nowadays it’s easy to find everything year-round, it’s worth taking advantage of fresh ingredients when they’re at their best. That way you get a better result in the recipe, and the person eating it enjoys the dish much more, because they can tell it’s made with fresh ingredients.

You're sure to find in the recipe Noelia brings us today, food blogger and author of La Cucharina Mágica, a recipe worth noting: these brioche rolls are a delight! She also presents them on the Kitchen Craft centerpiece I love, and the pairing of the rolls with this pretty presentation turns an easy recipe into a temptation for all your guests.

The recipe today is especially dedicated to all of us who love chocolate. I don't know what I would do without my daily little piece! If you also share this delicious vice, don't miss the chocolate bundt cake recipe presented to us by Virginia, author of the blog Sweet & Sour.

I'm sure many of you have been curious about the title of this Bolo de caramelo recipe. Seeing the photographs has likely whetted your appetite as well. And it's no wonder! Virginia, from Sweet&Sour, treats us to this caramelized recipe that comes from afar, typical of Madeira, explained with all the care and detail, just as she knows how to do.
