February 10, 2023

Marshmallow crispy hearts with a salted caramel & chocolate fondue. Please don’t make this for your Valentine, because that would just show me up. We’re not doing that this year.

Christmas Tree Brownies

November 2, 2022

2020 is the year to put up your fairy lights obscenely early and cook yourself whatever you bloody well fancy. I fancy Chocolate Brownies.

My favourite pretzel will always be brushed with butter and dipped in cinnamon sugar, but here I offer up a ridiculous chocolate caramel sauce made from melted Mars Bars.My favourite pretzel will always be brushed with butter and dipped in cinnamon sugar, but here I offer up a ridiculous chocolate caramel sauce made from melted Mars Bars.

Peach and Blueberry Hand Pies

January 28, 2019

New Year’s Day Pancakes

Soft Raspberry Coconut Ice

April 26, 2012

This Raspberry Coconut Ice from Dan Lepard tastes good, it's pretty, easy to make and you don't need to cook it. I like that it's kind of retro too.
