Tapenade
50gr sundried tomatoes
30gr fresh parsley
30gr fresh tarragon
2 cloves of garlic
100gr green olives
100gr black olives
Olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Salt & pepper

Make a paste with the sundried tomatoes, parsley, tarragon and garlic in a food processor. Use the oil from the tomatoes to smoothen it. Take it out of the machine into a large bowl.
Now put all the olives in the foodprocessor and squeeze them, not to smooth. Take it out of the machine and mix it with the paste in the bowl. Use the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt & peper to flavor it to your own taste.

Death by Chocolate Cake

280gr butter
350gr brown sugar
150gr plain flour
6 eggs
