[AdSense-B] October = autumn, for sure. Don’t even try to argue with me anymore. I’ve even gone all out and sprinkled my photos with autumnal orange and red leaves, and there are some cute little faux pumpkins on the table next to me which are going to soon be scattered all over the house. And…
Chocolate Recipes
Who doesn't love chocolate? You'll find loads of scrummy chocolate recipes right here on my blog, as I've got the sweetest tooth of all. From mint chocolate cookies to white chocolate truffles, we've got them all.
Rocky Road Chocolate Bark (and How to Temper)
Guess what? In exactly three months’ time, it will be Christmas day! I’ve already started my shopping – I’ve got a whole advent calendar to put together for Katie after all – and I’m about ready to start on my Christmas baking. Mulled wine and a Terry’s chocolate orange in the Sainsbury’s order this weekend!…
Cherry Coconut Macaroons
Enough with the peanut butter! It’s time to get things a little more coconut up in here. Yeah, there’s some cherry in there too. Of course. And wherever there’s cherry, chocolate is not far behind. I’m getting so predictable in my old age. Let’s rewind a minute. These cherry coconut macaroons started out their short…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread
? PEANUT BUTTER ALERT ? Yep, peanut butter is back. This incredible ingredient was most recently seen in my Peanut Butter Overnight Oats, but if you’re on my blog you are never too far away from a peanut butter treat. It’s my wife’s favourite (or is that salted caramel?) and although I’m not a fan of PB…
Mars Bar Tart (No Bake)
I’m taking half an hour out of my bank holiday Sunday to share something I’m super proud of with you all. I’m even tempted to say that today’s recipe might be the best thing to ever come out of my kitchen. Because, whilst I love all the things that make it to this blog, I…
Peanut Butter Overnight Oats
I’ve got something brand new (well to me, anyway) to share with you all today – my first foray into the world of overnight oats. Yep, although my first instinct was “nobody wants to eat cold porridge”, apparently a lot of people do! And now my wife’s one of them. So get on board the…
Chocolate Fudge Brownie Ice Cream Cake
What’s the best cake to make in the summer? Ice cream cake, of course! And this one’s got it all – a chocolate brownie cake base, layers of chocolate ice cream, chocolate fudge sauce, and some homemade chocolate whipped cream to finish things off. Plus, some store bought brownie chunks for decoration. Because you can’t…
Maltesers Cheesecake (No Bake)
No bake cheesecakes are quickly becoming my favourite thing to make this summer. Not only do you not need to go anywhere near a hot oven (which is a godsend in our tiny apartment kitchen), but they are also really quick and easy to put together. The only time-consuming thing here is waiting for the…
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…
Snickers Cheesecake (No Bake)
I’m currently on a one-woman mission to eat all the Snickers bars in a five-mile radius. I did manage to stop myself from eating just five of them, which is conveniently exactly the right amount you’re going to need to make this gorgeous no bake Snickers Cheesecake. I’m obsessed ??? Where do I even start with…
Chocolate Cheesecake Ice Box Cake
So, earlier in the week I let you in on how to make your own chocolate graham crackers. Because, if you live in the UK, you can’t get hold of a graham cracker for love nor money, especially not a chocolate one. And I promised you that I would be sharing with you a recipe…
Homemade Chocolate Graham Crackers
On Thursday I’m going to be bringing you my first ever ice box cake recipe, and to do that, today’s the day I’m going to show you how to make your very own homemade chocolate graham crackers. Because, depending on where you live, you might not have the luxury of being able to pop down…
Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes
If you’ve been around here before, you might be aware of my undeniable love for cherries and chocolate. Black forest gateaux is my all-time favourite dessert, and I’ve already shared a few choc/cherry recipes with you before, including my chocolate cherry loaf cake, chocolate cherry hot cross buns, and my chocolate cherry mini pavlovas. But…
Chocolate Peanut Brittle
We might be off sunning ourselves at Centre Parcs, but that doesn’t mean that you don’t get a second recipe this week. If there’s one thing I’m dedicated to, it’s baking. I made this chocolate peanut brittle last Friday night, even if it was wayyyyyy too hot to be stuck in a tiny little kitchen…
Foolproof Fudgy Chocolate Brownies
Friday was a momentous day. Seriously. The 9th of June is from this moment on to be known as ‘Brownie Day’, and celebrated with a batch of the perfect little fudgy chocolate brownies you see below. I have been trying to successfully bake fudgy chocolate brownies for my entire adult life, and that’s not an exaggeration….
Chocolate Bourbon Biscuit Cupcakes
No, we’re not talking whiskey. Bourbon biscuits are a type of cookie that is extremely popular in the UK, and is always the one I pick first out of the Christmas biscuit selection tin. Think two sweet chocolate cookies, sandwiched together with a sort of chocolate buttercreamy filling. A bit like an Oreo, but also…
White Chocolate Sunset Bark
I’m bringing you summer in a big way today – just look at this simply gorgeous white chocolate sunset bark! Is it a tropical sunset, or just some yummy white chocolate with food colouring and sprinkles? Who even knows. ???❤️❤️❤️??? Major love for this stuff. White chocolate is my new fave. Although this stuff is…
Chocolate Cherry Loaf Cake
Want a chocolate cherry loaf cake, where all the chocolate chips and juicy cherries don’t just sink straight to the bottom? Well, go on then, if you insist. This isn’t the first loaf cake I’ve shared with you, and it 100% won’t be the last. There’s something incredibly simple about mixing up some batter, chucking…
Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies
We’ve done chocolate chip cookies, double chocolate chip cookies, and even chocolate and hazelnut cookies. But there’s always been something missing. There was a cookie shaped space in my heart that I didn’t even know needed filling – until today. Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies are here. And they taste just like the ice cream ? Ice…
Double Chocolate Cookie Bars
What’s the only thing better than double chocolate cookies? Double chocolate cookie bars, of course. This is the most chocolatey recipe around, and don’t let anyone tell you differently. Literally crammed full of milk chocolate chips, this cookie bar is an intense and fudgy chocolate hit. If you loved my double chocolate chip cookies, then these…
Intense Double Chocolate Granola
I’ve been brainstorming granola recipes all weekend, to the point where I’ve just taken delivery of a bulk order of cereal mallows ? Granola may just be my new favourite thing to bake! It’s so easy, and is always appreciated greatly by my wife. And top of my list, as requested by the woman herself, was double chocolate granola. …
Creme Egg Cheesecake (No Bake)
It’s time for my big Easter recipe of the year, and I think you’ll agree I’ve gone all-out with this multi-layer Creme Egg Cheesecake extravaganza*. Full disclosure – this one’s got a lot of steps, and you are going to need about 5 different bowls to make it, but it definitely wows. And it’s not…
Mars Bar Cakes
Today I’m sharing with you what is quite possibly the easiest yet scrummiest bake around – Mars Bar Cakes. More exciting than your usual marshmallow squares, these will definitely be the hit of your kid’s birthday party (apart from Jelly cubes though, am I right?) or office charity bake sale. Everyone loves Rice Krispie treats!…
Mini Chocolate Cherry Pavlovas
Looking for chocolate swirled meringue nests, filled with chocolate cream and cherry compote? Then you’ve come to the right place! Meringues are probably my all-time favourite thing to make, and I think I’ve worked out why. Most people have this misguided idea that making your own meringues is both really difficult, and a tonne of…
