I am not quite sure when my love/obsession with all things Nordic began, but its influence is visible through virtually all of my interiors work and present in most of the food I cook.
I must confess I have been sitting on this recipe for quite a while now. This cake started its life many years ago as a Danish Chocolate Chip cake whose recipe came to me via…
