I’m not sure what the difference between the name of these pancakes are called are they Ebelskivers or Poffertjes? Maybe I should stick to calling them mini pancakes. I don’t want to get the wrong interpretation do I? These little beauties aren’t your straight forward recipe of pancakes as a all in one…

Chocolate, Cherry and Hazelnut Biscotti
I was clearing out my cupboards and came across a biscotti recipe book I was given a while ago. Looking through the book, this one recipe stood out quite a lot. I love chocolate, I love cherries and I love hazelnuts and had to make these. If you haven’t tried to make your…
GF Chocolate, Hazelnut and Pear cake

This cake was beautiful though, with the lovely sharp lemon, it had a fluffy…

The combination of dark chocolate with raspberry works so well. The tartness of the raspberries cuts through…
