As we enter what seems like the 15th straight week of 30 degree heat in the UK (and before you moan about how that’s not very hot – we don’t have air conditioning here, alright?) I felt it was only proper to share with you my latest homemade ice cream recipe. And it’s a fun…

50 One Bowl Recipes to Save on Washing Up
If you’re new around here – Hi, I’m Charlotte, and I’m such a lazy baker. Add that to the fact that I don’t own a dishwasher, and the result is a constant pile of dishes next to the sink, that almost always includes many baking bowls. And we’ve got a tiny tiny kitchen. Bad times….
Birthday Cake Sundae (with Birthday Cake Ice Cream)
Well, good riddance 2017. Actually, although this past year has had some hideous moments globally, it’s been a pretty fantastic year for this blog. I’ve posted pretty much consistently throughout 2017, with only a small wobble in December (you can read all about that here). And I’ve had so many more views, comments, tweets, and…
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…
Creamy Lemon Ice Pops
Possibly the easiest recipe in the whole world coming at you today. Only three ingredients – yogurt, lemons, and a little bit of runny honey. Mix them altogether, wait six hours, and you’ve got yourself some creamy lemon ice pops. So many confessions to make today. Firstly, those aren’t popsicle sticks. I used up the…

Champagne Truffle Ice Cream
I’ve been making a whole load of ice cream lately – there was this lemon ripple ice cream from a few weeks ago, as well as the pistachio ice cream that apparently never actually made it to the blog. Maybe it was just too tasty? Or maybe I just didn’t have the light or time…
Mojito Ice Lollies
After killing it with my Peach Raspberry Ice Lollies a few weeks ago, I thought it only fitting to give my specially imported ice lolly moulds another go. And this time I went boozy. I’m pretty sure Mojitos are everyone’s favourite cocktail. They went down a storm at our recent wedding after all. And you are…
Lemon Ripple Ice Cream
… that doesn’t really look all that ripply. Apologies. I put plenty of sprinkles on it though, does that count? The supposed ripples in this homemade lemon ice cream come in the form of lots of tangy lemon curd. My lemon curd came from a jar, but bonus points if you make your own. I’ve…
Peach Raspberry Ice Lollies
Summer is here at last! Well, at least for the weekend anyway. Is there any better way to enjoy the weekend than by spending it in our tiny little kitchen, slaving away over a stand-mixer, and making the world’s most hideous tasting chocolate cake? Yes, most definitely. On the plus side, I did manage to…
How to make Ice Cream without an Ice Cream Maker
Today I’m going to show you how to make ice cream, without an ice cream maker. On Monday I brought you my first ever chocolate ice cream recipe, which I claimed to be the best thing I’ve ever made. A few days of stuffing my face with it later, I still stand by that! Although top tip…
Easter Egg Ice Cream
Rich home made Easter egg ice cream, crammed full of crushed Mini Egg and Creme Egg pieces. Perfect for an Easter treat 🙂 If I was stuck on a desert island, the one thing I would take with me is a tonne of chocolate ice cream. And a freezer. Chocolate ice cream is my vice. And…
