Specunana Chocolate Brownies

Speculoos, Banana, Dark Chocolate, white chocolate Brownies

A while ago I bought some Lotus Biscuit Spread which on the continent is known as Speculoos. I’d seen much hype about this product on twitter so my curiosity got the better of me and I bought some. We’re big fans of Lotus Biscuits in this house. I have many fond memories of trips to …

Chocolate Drizzle Flapjack

Children's Baking, Teatime, snack, lunchbox, treat, oats

I can’t actually remember the first recipe I ever made at home but if I was a betting person I think it would be Flapjacks from “Learnabout… Cooking” by Ladybird Books. This was my first ever cookery book and cost the princely sum of 24p. I’m sure I would have made the Jam Tarts and …

Chocolate filled Easter Egg (made with no fancy equipment)

Every Sunday I seem to find myself tuning in to watch Sunday Brunch on Channel 4, I love the down to earth style of the presenting and the laid back approach to cooking on there. So last Sunday I had the intention of baking something for Easter but hadn’t actually put my finger on what …

Pear, Chocolate and Ginger Crumble

Pear, Chocolate and Ginger with almonds and oats Crumble in a bowl

Before Christmas I was tempted by all the buy 3 for 2 offers in the baking aisle and decided that crystallised ginger and bags of various nuts were an absolute must have. So I have to confess that all the nutty, gingery biscuits I had in my head became pipe dreams and I found myself …

Budget Valentine Chocolates

We don’t really do Valentine’s Day like we used to in our younger days and at the end of the day it is very annoying if you’re single (and don’t get a card) and quite a commercial racket! With the credit crunch in full swing I decided that wasting money on cards was not on …

In honour of National Baking Week I thought I would post my latest creation which was born out of frustration and a touch of laziness, if I’m honest! I came across a Banana and Chocolate Chip Muffin recipe recently and immediately wanted to make them. My children have started to have packed lunches so I …

Strawberry Banocolate Muffins

Recently my daughter had a cake bake at her school and one of my friends had a minor meltdown when her Strawberry Muffins failed 3 times the night before the bake.  I thought I would google to see if there were any recipes for these in cyber land as she had just swapped the blueberries …

Easy Chocolate Orange Cake

Easy Chocolate Orange Cake

When I was at school the first all-in-one cake I ever made was called Lemon Crisp. So I thought I would re-invent the cake today by adding cocoa and changing the lemon juice for orange juice. After suffering the day from hell; having the car pebble dashed by a digger on a building site and …

Chocolate Puddle Pudding

I have had this recipe from a newspaper clipping for 6 years and only got round to making this wonderful pudding tonight. It had been posted on a notice board at my daughter’s playgroup and when Lulu (who ran the group) saw me starting copy it down, she unpinned it and gave it to me. …
