About me

Hi there. I am Mareike and live in Cologne, Germany and I am the mom of a little daughter.

My passion is making a house a cozy home where people feel welcome and enjoy great food.

I started Mareike’s Cozy Corner in early 2017 as it allows me to combine my passion for writing, cooking and baking. This website features my take on classic recipes as well as my own creations.

It's soul food sunday ❤ Time for a batch of fudgy brownies. The perfect brownie for me is fudgy and chewy, but not too dense. No one wants to feel like they ate a bunch of rocks. I recommend using cacao instead of melted chocolate. It makes the brownies fudgier. I also found it advantageous to use two types or sugar. Brown sugar adds to that amazing fudginess. White sugar however makes the brownies chewy. I also always melt the butter, as it allows for the sugars and the butter to blend nicely and thus create a better end result. So here is my "what the fudge" brownie recipe... For the brownies: - 1/2 cup of melted butter - 1 tbs of vegetable oil - 2/3 cup of white sugar - 1/2 cup of brown sugar - 2 eggs - 1/2 cup of cacao powder - 1/2 cup of flour - 1/4 tsp of salt For the frosting: - 1 cup of ricotta cheese - 3.5 ounces (100 grams) of melted milk chocolate Start by mixing the melted butter, vegetable oil and both sugars. Afterwards whisk in the eggs until the dough is smooth. Then add the cacao, flour and salt. Bake for 25 min at 350 °F/175°C in the preheated oven. While the brownie is in the oven, prepare the frosting, by simply mixing the ricotta with melted chocolate. It's not super sweet, but I think it works best without extra sugar given the uber sweetness of the brownie. Apply the frosting, when the brownie has cooled down a little. #brownies #bakinglove #sweettooth #inmykitchen #brownielover #eeeeats #thebakefeed #fudgybrownies #thesugarfiles #iamsomartha #easybaking #eatgoodfeelgood #bakedfromscratch #soulfoodsunday

Oven roasted balsamico Brussels sprouts 🍽 like most people, I only discovered my love for brussels sprouts as a grown-up. Now I really enjoy them a lot. They also gave me a huge epiohany, when I discovered how they grow, which I saw on a field near Brussels no less. 🍽 For the recipe, check out the latest post on my blog as usual (link in bio) #brusselsprouts #lowcarbdinner #eatyourgreens #lightdinner #eeeeats #healthyrecipes #ovenbaked #goodeats #yummyinmytummy #roastedveggies #easyrecipe #cookinglove #inmykitchen #imsomartha

Bonjour Bruxelles... the heart of Europe. Many wonderful memories of my life where created in this city and close by. This weekend will hopefully add a few more... thanks to hot chocolate, truffles, Belgium beer and great company. I love the vibe and mixture of Belgium culture and international elements thanks to all the EU institutions situated here. Only downside, it makes me painfully aware of how rusty my French is by now. #bruxellesmabelle #welovebrussels #belgium🇧🇪 #bruxelles #weekendtrip #visitbrussels #bxl #creatingmemories #brussels🇧🇪 #enjoylife❤ #girlsthatwander #citytrip #livelittlethings #goexplore #memoriesmade #memories❤ #europe #chocolate #europeanforum #🇪🇺 #hotchocolate #truffles

It's cold outside, which essentially means it's the ultimate time for soup for dinner. Like sweet potato soup with crispy bacon bits. The orange color already warms you up by just looking at it. Plus it's soup-er tasty... As always, if you are in the market for some sweet potato soup as well, go on my blog for the quick & easy recipe (link in bio) #whatsfordinner #soupseason #souprecipe #soups #soupoftheday #sweetpotato #dinnerideas #winterfood #healthyeating #wintertime #cookingwithlove #healthyrecipes #lovetocook #cookingtime #baconlover #foodinspiration #mareikescozycorner

Baby it's cold outside ❄ I love winter and going for a walk in the cold. It makes me feel alive. Especially when the sun is out as well. Besides, you can afterwards reward yourself for bravely facing the cold by treating yourself to some hot chocolate ❄ #momentsofmine #morningscenes #morningwalk #babyitscoldoutside❄️ #iceicebaby #frostymorning #chilly #winterwalk #colddays #wintermorning
