It's that time of year where second winter tends to hit this side of the hemisphere. It's that hope you feel in your chest that spring is just around the corner and then BAM, winter's back.

Instead of crying and crawling back into bed and waiting for May to come around, you should bake this cake and then crawl back into bed. With St. Patrick's day around the corner, there's no better time to make a guinness chocolate cake. 

This is one of those recipes that you're gonna make ten times over because it's way too easy and so satisfying. Shakshuka and I have been friends for awhile now but I haven't made a batch in what feels like ages.

So what is it? It's a Tunisian dish that involves cooking eggs in a spicy tomato sauce and the flavours pack a punch. It also smells so intoxicating, and warms you up from the inside out thanks to the chilis.
With the temperature dropping, I find myself coming back to this again and again these past few weeks and I think I've had it for breakfast almost every single day. It's super easy to divide up into ramekins and individually bake the eggs in the oven instead of finishing the eggs on the stove. Pre-portioning is my jam since it lets me grab breakfast on the go when I'm running late for work. This recipe comes from David Lebovitz who I've been following for a very long time now and I find it works perfect every time. Another fantastic shakshuka recipe to check out is Yotam Ottolenghi's who's recipe you can find in his book Jerusalem. Happy cooking!
