Mini Egg Brownies!

I am a huge sucker for brownies, as you may already know, so when Mini Eggs came onto the shelves the first thing I had to do without a doubt was make Mini Egg brownies! On Fridays I take to school baked goods for all of my friends so when it came to today I dug out that bag of Mini Eggs I had stashed away in my school bag and decided to make these super chocolatey, slightly Easter related brownies and if I do say so myself I love them even better than normal brownies *gasps*.

Lemon Drizzle Traybake

Lemon, as you may already know, is one of my favourite flavours when it comes to baking, so why not take advantage of this great flavour in a moist, crunchy and refreshing sponge in the form of a shareable traybake for everyone to adore.

Sultana and Apricot Scones

I have never really made scones before until last Sunday and I never knew how easy they were! For this recipe I have added sultanas and apricots to make them taste even better. I recommend to serve straight from the oven with a little butter! 

Gingerbread Traybake

Ginger and treacle are both rich flavours on their own but together they complement each other perfectly in this recipe, so perfectly it should be made at least once by everyone! 
 
 

Plum Clafoutis

When your Dad brings home an abundance of plums that are nearing their best before what do you do? You bake lots of plum related desserts until your family is plumed out, that's what you do. I was wanting a recipe that was using plums and found this one and it is delicious and so easy! This recipe has an egg custard texture with a sweet plum contrast plus when served warm with a serving of whipped cream makes it taste even better! For this recipe you will need a shallow oven proof dish.
It doesn't look too pleasant but it tastes delicious!
 

Easy Vegan Microwave Treacle Sponge

An easy vegan dessert that only takes 20 minutes? This is any vegans dream and it has finally come true! I found this recipe on the internet and decided to alter it to make it even tastier. The luxurious treacle and the soft sponge is anyone's dream from a microwave sponge!

White Chocolate and Cranberry Cookies

After so many views on my orange and white chocolate cookies I decided to try white chocolate and cranberry and they were delicious, that delicious that everyone went back for seconds! Let me know your opinion on these smooth white chocolate cookies that have a fruity burst and chewy texture that the cranberries have on the cookie! 
 
Sorry about the bad quality as this was take just before they were snapped up to eat!

Blueberry and White Chocolate Cupcakes

Blueberry and white chocolate is a combination that is extremely under rated and it is one of the best! This cupcake recipe is so fun and is a recipe that makes you want to come back for more even though we know we shouldn't.

Dad's Classic Flapjack

This recipe is a family favourite and some of my fondest memories are sat around the bonfire tucking into a hearty slab of flapjack. This flapjack recipe may seem a little simple compared to many others but its the simplicity that makes it so special. The sticky treacle and syrup that melds the oats to each other then the sticky glacĂ© cherries just make it so delicious plus its 100% VEGAN!
 
'They just smelt too good!'

Raw Brownies!

As a lover of all things brownie related and healthy I had to give the Deliciously Ella Raw Brownies a try. I had to adapt the recipe and it made it super tasty! One thing I would love to do when I am older is have a wholefoods diet but not be one that is really restricting and stops me from going out with friends for meals, so finding recipes that I can add into my daily life that are 100% good for you is always amazing. Plus it is one of those recipes you can slip into the kids lunch boxes that they will love all the same!
 
As this recipe is made with dates, pecans and cocoa powder (and a dash of honey!) it is so good for you and taste a lot like Nakd bars, if you know what they are then we can be friends. With a combination of these ingredients it makes them very chewy, with a slight crunch, then with the rich taste of the dates and chocolate just makes them even better!
