I’ve been wanting to make these babies for a while. Creme brûlée macarons. What a treat! If you love creme brûlée and you love macarons, then this is the combo for you! After making macarons I always have left over egg yolks, but the best thing about this recipe is that you get to use…

Caramelised apple upside-down cake
Here’s the story, my in-laws were coming over and I had approximately 30 minutes before they arrived. Usually my mind goes “Ahh, we have nothing to give them”. But I was on a roll that day, we had just had pumpkin pizza for lunch, the oven was still hot so I had this crazy idea. I…

White Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies

Pumpkin, caramelised onion and fetta pizza
As winter rolls around here in Australia, pumpkin is slowly creeping into the fruit and veg shops, and am I glad for that. I adore pumpkin, one of those great ingredients that you can use in sweet or savoury dishes. A little while ago, my husband took me out to lunch and we had this…

This is a super easy, no mixer required recipe! It is so quick and easy I’ve used it so many times I’ve lost count. It’s also a great base recipe for different flavours, in fact I think it works better with others flavours, especially chocolate and coffee. I found it online somewhere, I really can’t…
Happy Birthday Hubby!
Here’s that peanut butter cake I warned you all about… Talking about warnings, this cake comes with a major warning to anyone who has a serious peanut allergy ‘Do NOT try this at home folks!’ I wouldn’t be surprised if someone 2 houses away was affected by it. But for all you peanut lovers, this…
