Perfect Brownies Recipe

There are so many brownie recipes, because of course it's just a baking staple that you should definitely try at home instead of buying a premade mix, homemade brownies taste so much better and you can really add any toppings you like: chocolate chips, Nutella, even almonds or nuts for an added crunch.

Moreover, there always seems to be a battle going on between cakey and fudgy brownies, but in all honesty, I feel like brownies shouldn't be neither too fudgy nor too cakey, they should just be the right texture for a brownie, which is different from that of a cake and the texture of fudge. So here you have this recipe for perfectly balanced brownies that are just right: fudgy in the middle just a slightly cakey bite and 100% chocolatey!


Just look at that crumbly outside with the OH SO FUDGY center, are you hungry now? If so, let's get started!

No Fail Basque Burnt Cheesecake (one of the Best in Spain!)

#SanSebastianCheesecake has been one of the trending topics in the culinary world for long, and it's all because of a cheesecake served in Restaurante La Viña, in the northern region of Spain, in the city of San Sebastian.

The restaurant is a long-time favorite for locals and tourists alike, but now even more so because of their scrumptious cheesecake: a jiggly cheesecake, creamy in the center, with a caramelized top, with a rich cream cheese taste. Imagine the Japanese cotton cheesecake with a denser cheese ratio, creamier, barely any flour at all, but keeping the jiggly and melt-in-your-mouth sensation. It's such a good cheesecake that it's one of the Best 10 Cheesecakes of Spain. 

Now, many of us aren't able to travel to San Sebastian to enjoy this heavenly cheesecake, so the chefs at Restaurante La Viña have actually shared their original recipe! Some food experts say that the recipe's actual results are very much alike the original cheesecake served at the restaurant. Moreover, it's a very forgiving recipe, with very few ingredients, little preparation time and only 40 minutes of baking.



So let's get cheesecaking!
