Orange Cranberry and White Chocolate Cookies

Chocolate Trifle with Baileys

Guinness Brown Bread

This week is National Bread Week and the perfect time to share this recipe for Guinness Brown Bread. The aim of National Bread Week is to show how bread, real bread, can be part of a healthy low fat diet.

Chocolate Chip Cookies

  Chocolate Chip Cookies. Nothing ground-breaking to see here. But it’s the simple things in life that are really special. The smell of the cookies as you take them out of the oven is amazing.

Chocolate Pavlova with Mascarpone Cream
