Cheese Courgette and Spinach Filo Pie

I’ve been intrigued by Greek Spanakopita for a long time. Well, any excuse to eat more cheese! I’ve never loved any of the versions that I’ve tried though. I then saw Georgina Hayden make this Cheese Courgette and Honey Pie on Saturday Kitchen and I thought it looked delicious. I’ve been playing around with variations since […]

Chocolate Meringue Roulade

I thought it was about time that I posted another chocolate recipe. You can never have too many chocolate recipes in your collection. I made this again recently for guests and it is such a great dessert to make, it’s easy, you can make it ahead of time and it is so so tasty.

Chocolate Brownies with Pecans

I have had a few requests for brownies lately. Now I have mentioned before how I am not a huge fan of them, as they are a bit too dense for my liking. My previous recipe for Chocolate Brownies is for a thicker, more cake like brownie.

Chocolate Fondant

  I realised recently that it has been quite some since I posted a chocolate recipe. Remember when I said I’d post one a month?! Yeah, that didn’t really work out. Anyway here’s one more to add to the collection, Chocolate Fondant. Also known as Molten Chocolate Cakes, Lava Cakes or Hot Chocolate Puddings.

This is an enriched loaf in that it uses milk and butter to add fat to the dough. This gives a light but slightly cake-like texture to the bread. It […]

Rhubarb and Custard Tart

  It’s been a while since I posted a dessert recipe so here you go. Rhubarb and custard is a classic combination and I love cooking with rhubarb when it is in season. Himself is not a fan so I usually make these things and have to find someone to offload them on or I’d […]

Homemade Jaffa Cakes

Jaffa Cakes have always been a particular weakness of mine. When I was younger I could easily eat a whole packet in one go. Of course back then I could eat whatever I wanted and still be a size 8. How I wish I’d appreciated my teenage metabolism, now I just have to think of […]

Apple Tarte Tatin

This is another of those posts that has been planned for months and then forgotten about. I planned to be all organised and seasonal and post a recipe using apples in September but only remembered this Apple Tarte Tatin was in my drafts last weekend! Anyway, better late than never.
