Mini Ricotta and Raspberry Cakes
I had some lovely raspberries that I wanted to use in some baking and came across this interesting recipe, I liked that it used ricotta cheese in it. In the end I wasn’t too sure about these cakes, they were OK but nothing special. I liked the little hit of raspberries but I…
Tiramisu cake the better one!
My first try of Tiramisu cake although looked appealing wasn’t the greatest. The cake was dry and not moist as I thought it was going to be. I really wanted to get this right as I love Tiramisu. I then tried the saviour of baking Mrs Berry’s good old Mary’s recipe. And my god what…
My Mother’s Day Strawberry and Cream Cake
My mother dearest loves a bit of strawberries and cream. I have seen strawberry cake recipes and thought this would be a perfect cake for Mother’s Day. The cake has actual pureed strawberries in it. Most of the recipes I found added food colouring to make it have that atheistically pleasing colour, but I…
Tiramisu Cake
Recently I have become to really a fan of Tiramisu. I always get excited by recipes or anything to do with Tiramisu. I do really like coffee and it does go well with cream. Tiramisu is really indulgent, rich, creamy and yes, quite a fatty dessert but just so yummy. I think it’s always good to…
Espresso Macarons with Nutella (for the first time!)
So Macarons…not Macaroons(they’re the coconut ones!) Those colourful French miniature crisp and chewy little dainty delights that everyone goes crazy about. Scary right? Well scary for me! I’ve wanted to make them for a while now but I’ve been scared and I’ve always thought that they would be very difficult to make. They…
Simply Oreo Truffles
I wanted to make truffles for my Afternoon Tea as some of the ones I’ve been to give you them. I’ve made them the week before and found these are by far the easiest truffles I’ve made with the least amount of ingredients. They also have the advantage of not being too too messy…
Lemon and Poppy Seed Muffins
I loved the fact these muffins had a glazed lemon on top (well it started off at the bottom) of each muffin. They looked super nice in the original recipe. However mine didn’t exactly turn out like the original one :(. This took a bit longer to make then normal muffins as you have…
Pistachio Cheesecake
I am a real fan of nuts and pistachios are one on my favs but as they are quite pricey they are mainly a treat when baking. These didn’t use as much nuts as I expected only 80g and little extra for the brittle. I love the taste of pistachios, they give off…
My ‘Go To’ Cheese Scones
I have made savoury scones in previous posts. The spicy cheese wholemeal scones and moist greek yoghurt scones. These scones are the latest ones I’ve tried and I used this recipe for my Afternoon Tea as I really liked them, they worked out well. They are quite simple to make and are moist in…
