Biscotti

On a cold wintery January day all I want is a cup of tea and a biscuit in my hand and at this present moment in time I am loving the French biscuit Biscotti, which in old French means 'twice cooked'. This biscuit is one of my favourites as it is very hard and crunchy so can last longer and tastes amazing dipped in coffee or tea!

Lemon Swiss Roll

This swiss roll has to be the best I have ever tasted! It has such a light and fluffy sponge with a refreshing citrusy lemon and then the sweeter lemon curd in the roll, perfection! This recipe, I think, will become a classic in our house and I hope it will in yours!


I mistakenly cut all the way through so my roll wasn't to good... Whoops!

Chai Latte Cupcakes!

I am vegetarian and my Dad is vegan so finding desserts that we are both able to eat is quite tricky. So for my birthday my dad got me Vegan Cupcakes Take Over The World this book is only little but contains so many lovely recipes that all sound delicious.
 
So on Sunday which for me consist of the afternoon baking vegan desserts I decided to make Chai Latte Cupcakes as in our house anything chai spice is welcome. In this weeks blog post I have decided that it is going to be these little cupcakes recipe as well... they deserved to be made and enjoyed by everyone as I love them so much!

New Year Resolutions

Every year I make hopeless attempts of setting New Years Resolutions and I am 99% certain that by February the 1st those resolutions are no where in sight. So this year I have decided to come from a different approach and make a list of things I want to achieve, then at the end of this year I'll sit down and review my list and see what I have really done and what I haven't.
