Halloween is just ANOTHER great excuse for me to bake and get a little creative in the kitchen, so here are my Halloween Biscuits – Scrummy Spiders! I thought these were a great little bake for the kids (of any age!) and are so cheap and easy, so a bit of a winner all around. […]

IT’S EASTER – and what better excuse do you need to make this delicious Chocolate Orange Cake. Lent, for me, usually revolves around giving up chocolate, so I always fancy something indulgent and chocolatey as an Easter Sunday reward. So here it is, simple as that – My Chocolate Orange Reward Cake. Ingredients for Chocolate […]

These Chocolate Guinness Muffins were created with St Patricks Day in mind. I’ve got my brothers girlfriend, Mari, over for a ‘cake date’ and seeing as it’s St Patricks Day this week, what better excuse than to add a little tipple into the bake. The Guinness gives these muffins a really luscious, dark, moist depth, […]

Double Chocolate PROTEIN cookies??? Why the extra protein I hear you ask? I’ve decided to venture out of my comfort zone at the gym – which would have usually consisted of a lot of running – and I have started to lift some weights. Apparently Daisy Ridley (of Star Wars fame) can deadlift 75kg…so that’s […]

Other than a massive craving for Soft & Chewy American Style Cookies, there is no other reason for this post. I had a week off tour, had constantly passed ‘Millie’s Cookies’ stands and resisted temptation and so fancied a treat after some hard work. I have to say, one of my favourite cookie recipes to […]

If you’re looking for a cheap, quick, stylish and easy gift or dinner party number then these Deceptively Posh DIY Chocs are for you! The hidden gem to this recipe is that your humble ice cube tray does all the work for you (well, almost..!) You could use some actual chocolate moulds if you have […]

My boyfriend’s Dad, Ian, is a coffee fiend…and I don’t think he would mind me saying that. So trips back to see his parents in Milton Keynes often inspire some baking. Therefore these, Coffee & Chocolate Mini Loaves, are for Ian. The man who helps with my blog, assists me in anything technical and plies […]

“Half Term HobNobs” were created because I imagine some of you might like something to bake with the children while it’s half term? These are wholemeal too, so they’re not only a fun little thing to spend an afternoon making, you also don’t have to feel quite so bad when devouring them too. Although these […]

It’s the end of the summer holiday season and that staple present your dad/sister/cousin/boyfriend brings you back from that exotic destinatation? A Toblerone. Someone was only remembered at the airport on the way home. I jest. (Well, I half jest, as this is often true) BUT let’s look at this positively. Toblerones are well under […]

I had a challenge. My brother’s girlfriend (Mari) was turning 30, so I obviously offered to bake a cake. If you make it to 30, I am willing to TRY and bake anything that your heart desires. I may live to regret saying that. So Mari said she didn’t mind what it was, just something […]

I had two cravings. Firstly, a honey roasted nut craving. Unusual? Maybe. Pregnant? Definitely not. Secondly, a baking withdrawal ‘craving’. (Ok, not strictly a ‘craving’ but you see where I’m going here….) Unusual? No. Fixable? Most definitely. So these cookies were the outcome. A little cookie note, the longer you leave these babies in the […]
