The morning started with soft snowflakes falling over the forest. I took Hilma for a quiet walk by the nearby lake, the trees, the frozen ground, and the calm air felt magical. 🌲🤍 Back home, I baked a Gingerbread Latte Cake with Snow Frosting, a warm and fragrant winter treat perfect for the season. After that, I went to the backyard to prepare our bird feeders for winter, a small ritual I love to do every year. 🕊️ For dinner, I made a simple, comforting plate of potato–cauliflower salad and lemon-garlic pan-seared chicken. Cozy, delicious, and perfect for a cold day. 🍋🍗🥔 Thank you for spending this winter day with me.💛❄️ All recipes can be found in the pinned comment of this video📌 🎄❄️ GINGERBREAD LATTE CAKE WITH SNOW FROSTING❄️ 🎄 🧁Dry Ingredients📌 220 g all-purpose flour 1 ½ tsp baking powder ½ tsp baking soda 1 tsp cinnamon 1 tsp ginger ½ tsp cardamom ¼ tsp nutmeg ⅛ tsp ground cloves (optional) Pinch of salt 🧁Wet Ingredients📌 120 g brown sugar 80 g white sugar 2 large eggs 120 ml strong coffee or espresso 120 ml milk 120 g melted butter or oil 120 g Greek yogurt or sour cream 1 tsp vanilla extract 1 tbsp dark syrup or molasses ☁️❄️ SNOW FROSTING (Whipped Cream Frosting)❄️☁️ 450ml cold heavy cream 3-4 tbsp powdered sugar 1 tsp vanilla Optional decoration: coconut flakes, powdered sugar, rosemary, cranberries 🥣 INSTRUCTIONS📌 1.
