Flourless Chocolate Cake
I made my flourless chocolate cake well in time for this month’s Daring Bakers challenge. A full post in a couple of hours, hopefully. Gotta rush for a wedding! Updated: Full post!
Nutella Pinwheel Cookies
A spoonful of nutella makes the medicine go down! I earnestly believe Nutella can bring world peace. Who wouldn’t be transported to a completely different world with something as little as a spoonful of Nutella? Today is World Nutella Day and I only need an excuse to use up some more Nutella instead of devouring […]
White Chocolate Oreo Cupcakes
This post is not just about Oreo cupcakes but about how blogging connects you with like minded folks. It’s astounding how someone halfway around the world has so much more in common with you than you would have ever thought. Let me tell you how I met my new blogger buddy. I used to enjoying […]
A year of blogging and Nutella cupcakes!
Today I complete one year of being a part of the blogosphere (yay me!). I started off hoping to use PurpleFoodie.com as a place where I could collect my recipes and keep track of my cooking and baking experiments. Little did I know that a year down the line, the blog would mean a lot […]

Pain au chocolat et à la banane
Someone at work lent me a French cookbook yesterday. It looked quite interesting and I immediately felt like sampling some of those recipes. To begin with, I picked a chocolate banana bread. Everything was in French and it was kinda fun trying to figure what it meant, and if it was way beyond my understanding […]

My grandma followed this recipe for family birthdays: 225g butter 225g sugar 225g flour 4 eggs ½ tsp baking powder 1 tsp zest of orange/lime/lemon 1 tsp vanilla essence 150g chocolate chips Preheat […]
How to Make Brownies
A couple of years ago, I made my first batch of brownies. I was astonished by how easy they were to make and how perfect the gooey inside and the crusty outside turned out to be. Brownies can be made any flavour you like. You could add to the brownie batter caramel, butterscotch, Oreo, chocolate […]
