It’s getting all romantic up in here guys – I dug out the never-before-used heart shaped baking tin for this no bake Amaretto Cherry Cheesecake and everything. Welcome to What Charlotte Baked does Valentine’s Day 2019. Valentine’s Day, Schmalentines Day To be honest, Valentine’s Day is something I think more about for blogging purposes than…

Dessert Tapas (Mediterranean Week #2)
Who says tapas always has to be savoury? Perfect for those of you with a sweet tooth, this dessert tapas has a sugary spin on all the classic tapas favourites. And so, Mediterranean week continues! Today’s recipe is a bit of a mammoth one. So many ingredients, and oh so many steps. The good news…
Super Berry Granola Cookies
And just like that, Easter was done. If you’re anything like me, then you are pretty much sick to death of chocolate right now. It won’t last past Sunday, but for now I’m ready to get my sugar hit from much less chocolatey treats. And that’s exactly why these Super Berry Granola Cookies are the…
Cherry Bakewell Slices
I’m bringing you some full on British springtime today, even if the snow ruined my weekend. Yep, cancelled plans are part and parcel of living in the UK in March apparently. But not having my friends come to stay meant that I could clock some extra hours in the world’s smallest kitchen and bake some Cherry…
Cherry Amaretto Fudge
February’s pretty much here, and with it brings a whole host of pink things. Yep, it’s going to be all hearts and chocolate around here for the next couple of weeks. You may say that all this pink is just me trying to hide from the fact that I’m turning 30 in 5 days. You’d…
Cherry Bakewell Smoothie Bowl (aka Dessert for Breakfast!)
It’s January now, so here’s the compulsory ‘healthy’ breakfast recipe. But, just because something’s got some vitamins and goodness inside it, doesn’t mean it’s not allowed to be yummy and taste like pudding. Plus, I’m always on the hunt for sneaky ways to eat dessert for breakfast. New Year, same old me. What’s a smoothie…
Toblerone Hot Chocolate
[AdSense-B] Today’s recipe is served with a side order of sadness. Cue X-Factor style sob-story music. Three Christmases ago something magical happened. I walked into my neighbourhood Starbucks, ready to get myself into the festive spirit and drink something seasonal from one of those gorgeous red cups, and noticed something magical on the menu –…
12 inch Almond Layer Cake
By popular request, here is the recipe for the 12 inch version of my Almond Layer Cake. This is just the recipe for the cake, without frosting, as this is most probably going to be used for a wedding cake, and therefore you’ve probably got your own frosting in mind.
Apricot & Marzipan Breakfast Rolls
Who doesn’t love breakfast? It’s the number one meal of the day in my book (well, apart from the 8pm Cadbury chocolate button binge, of course). And sometimes a bowl of cornflakes just doesn’t cut it. For those occasions when you really need to step up your breakfast game, I’ve got just the recipe for…
Salted Caramel Granola
I’ve got serious granola goals for you today. Totally overbaked salted caramel granola goals. BUT it still tastes good. Easy all-in-one salted caramel, roasted almonds, hazelnuts, and seeds. Oh yeah, and chocolate chips, as always. You can’t have a good breakfast without chocolate. I will live and die by that motto. Well, probably die. [Oh…
Almond Layer Cake with Almond Buttercream
UPDATE: You can now find the recipe for the 12 inch version of this cake right here. One year ago today, I got married. It was an incredible day, and we are spending our anniversary watching our wedding video, filling in our new wedding anniversary journal, and eating the mini replica wedding cake I have…
Cherry Apricot Galette
What on Earth even is a galette? And why would you want to make one? All your questions will be answered today as I share with you something brand new – my first ever cherry apricot galette! Easy one first. That up there is a galette. It’s basically just a lazy person’s pie, without the…
Congress Tarts (Almond & Raspberry)
I managed to drag myself away from binge watching the penultimate series of Vampire Diaries for long enough on Saturday to actually bake something, which is a result. I didn’t get round to doing the dishes, or hoovering, or whatever other chore I was supposed to be doing. But baking always takes priority, right? You probably have…
Cherry Bakewell Granola
Making your own homemade Cherry Bakewell Granola is easier than you might think – and I have it on extremely good authority that it tastes like perfection. I live with the world’s most experienced breakfast cereal eater (probably). My wife literally buys three boxes of cereal every single time we go to the supermarket, and…
Almond Raspberry Drizzle Cake
The Great British Bake Off was back on UK television on Wednesday, and to celebrate everyone’s favourite 11 weeks of the year, every week I am going to be baking something inspired by the previous week’s theme. And to kick things off, here comes Cake Week. The signature challenge set by Paul and Mary was…
Soft Amaretto Cookies (Gluten Free)
Morning everyone 🙂 Today I’m bringing you sweet and soft amaretto cookies, which include a generous helping of my alcohol of choice – Disaronno. Just a quick post today – I’ve reached the stage in the wedding planning process where my to-do list is becoming more of a to-do book. Luckily, these soft amaretto cookies…
