It’s about to get a whole lot colder, and when it does - this boozy banana cake will be here to keep you warm. This is the perfect cake to make on a cold weekend morning - ready to dig into by the afternoon with a big cup of tea (or something stronger).
If you’re planning on celebrating this year, then these devilishly delicious red velvet cupcakes will make the perfect addition to your Halloween spread. They’re the evil love child of two of my favourite cupcake flavours - cookies and cream, and red velvet. A match made in hell?
For me, cheesecakes are a summer obsession but these mini desserts have been autumn’d up with a spicy ginger base and super indulgent pumpkin spice filling.
I feel like I’m on a constant mission to perfect the ultimate, fudgiest chocolate cake - and I don’t mind how many chocolate recipes I have to test and taste before I get there (I’m dedicated like that)...
If, like me, you’re obsessed with cinnamon buns; then these are the cupcakes for you! They have been a firm favourite of mine for a few years now and I’m really excited to finally share them on my blog...
In my opinion, as far as pies go, pecan pie is at the top of the leader board - top of the pie charts you might say (sorrynotsorry). And, as a fellow pecan pie lover, I could never make a batch without saving a slice (or two) for my sister!
If you’ve already taken a peek at some my other posts, then you might have guessed that I’m a huge fan of the cookie-wich. It might be that just I’m greedy, but I love the idea of two chewy cookies sandwiched between a soft buttercream or even ice cream!
The famous fudge brownie often overshadows blonde relative; but I was surprised to learn that they actually predate chocolate brownies - making them the older, and much wiser dessert!
I’ve spent so long trying to achieve that perfect combination of crisp on the edges but soft and gooey in middle - and, most importantly, big enough to eclipse the sun. After all, if a cookie isn’t bigger than your face, then is it really a cookie?
I kinda love how Oreo’s have evolved from a simple, albeit tasty, cookie sandwich, to a delicious vehicle for so many wonderfully creative baked goods...
The thought of making pastry used to spark the fear within me. It always overwhelmed me and for a long time, I avoided it in my baking.
My favourite thing about these muffins is that make it totally acceptable to eat cake at breakfast - with plenty of fruit and oats, who could ever judge?
Like many delicious sweet treats, these little teacakes originate from France - where they are known as Financiers. More recently, they have also become popular in Australia and New Zealand - who have adopted them and made them their own - they call them Friands.
I love buttery, crumbly, sugary shortbread so much - it seems to be one of those simple treats that I crave so often and, when I do, this recipe is my go to.
I remember first being introduced to S’mores on holiday in the US. It was Christmas and we sat around an open fire, toasting marshmallows and sandwiching them between Graham crackers and thick slabs of Hershey’s chocolate - heaven.
I always seem to have at least two over ripe bananas that have outstayed their welcome in my fruit bowl. They usually end up in a super quick mid-week banana bread but more so than often they end up getting frozen for special bakes - like these peanut butter and banana-chocolate (banocoloate) cupcakes.
Porter and chocolate go hand in hand, and the coffee ads an extra level of richness to this cake - making it a really indulgent Bruce Bogtrotter-esque cake...
In my first post on this blog (a whole three months ago), I wrote about one of my mum’s staple desserts, tiramisu. Well, the best part of her tiramisu is that it always left plenty of egg whites ready to be whipped up into crisp-on-the-outside-chewy-on-the-inside-meringues...
This no-bake cheesecake couldn’t be easier to make - the only struggle is waiting for it to set before digging in...
These soft, chewy cookies are perfect just as they are - even better when dunked in glass of cold milk but, be warned, they are dangerously easy to consume in large quantities...
