No bake oat snicker cookies

It’s been a while since I made these and I’ve really missed eating them. They are very moreish and once you eat one you have to have another 🙈 and maybe another lol. I suppose this is why I don’t make them that often. These little bad boys are super quick, very easy…

I rarely eat After Eights, but when I do it always reminds me of my childhood. Those black wrappers were so posh when I was younger and I always felt like a grown-up when I was offered them lol. Oh what to be young again! To be honest, I’m more of a chocolate…

Gluten free eggless lemon and almond cake

I have been experimenting with GF recipes recently as my Uncle can’t eat gluten. Generally I find GF recipes really tricky to make, they generally have such a weird texture and a horrible flavour unless you use ground almonds. This cake was beautiful though, with the lovely sharp lemon, it had a fluffy…

Gluten free chocolate raspberry cheesecake

So I know most people are used to ‘White chocolate raspberry cheesecake’ butttt I and other members of my family don’t like white chocolate so I thought why not switch the white chocolate to dark chocolate. The combination of dark chocolate with raspberry works so well. The tartness of the raspberries cuts through…
