Recipe here This has been my favourite traybake that I've made in a long time. The recipe was easy and simple to follow and when left to set in the fridge overnight it cut into lovely even pieces.

Recipe here This was a great, simple recipe. I decided to keep it simple and only add raisins and marshmallows to my rocky road, mostly because that was all we had in the house and I couldn't go to the shops due to shielding (2020), but sometimes simpler is better. I didn't dust the slices… Continue reading Rocky Road

Recipe here This recipe was great and so out of my comfort zone. These are baked on a dry griddle/frying pan which was a nerve-wracking task of balancing the heat properly so that they were cooked through, but not burnt on the outside. My first attempt was definitely underdone when I took them off the… Continue reading Soda Farls

I didn't have as much white chocolate as the recipe called for, but I didn't correct the other measurements as the difference was small and difficult to work with. The fudge turned out well… Continue reading Biscoff Fudge Bites

I use jarred jalapeños as this was easier than cutting fresh ones with Robbie around. I was quite conservative with them to start with but gradually added more during the subsequent times… Continue reading Cheese and Jalapeño “Baguette”

Recipe here I really enjoyed making this bread. It is really tasty and looks great too. Bread has never been something I've been confident in making, but Lockdown (2020) gave me the opportunity to challenge myself. It has become something I find very therapeutic and enjoyable.

Recipe here This was a new recipe for me and a new experience using buttermilk in bread, but I was pleased with the outcome. The bread could have down with a little longer in the oven, but John was happy with it and he is our resident expert on Soda bread.
