Chocolate Chip Biscotti
Christmas is fast approaching (eek! I’m so unprepared this year!), and so it’s the perfect time to think about suitable treats or edible gifts.
Cinnamon Bun Cookies
‘It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas’ what with carol services, Christmas concerts, Christmas fairs and the Christmas box emerging from the attic! Expect some really seaso…
Spinach, Mushroom and Tomato Tarts
I have been lucky enough to have been challenged by Waitrose to concoct a vegetarian alternative to eat at Christmas lunch.
Mince Pie Streusel Bars
I’ve had a jar of homemade mincemeat hanging about, since last Christmas in fact, waiting to be used up.
Rose Creams
I had a sudden panic today – my last free day before Christmas and I was lacking a couple of presents.
Crudités with Ranch Style Dip (aka Creamy, Beany, Dreamy dip)

Rainbow Cookies
I’m always looking for new, interesting and pretty cookie ideas – everyone gets sick of the same thing all the time.
Rosemary and Olive Oil Bagels (AKA Focaccia Bagels)
We were in the supermarket the other day and Big S was tempted by the bagels – we used to give her bagels all the time and she absolutely loved them toasted for breakfast.
Celeriac and Apple Soup
The celeriac in the shops are looking great at the moment, in their wonderfully gnarly glory.
Salt and Vinegar Crackers
Those with limited diets have so few options for savoury snacks – for us nuts are out of the question, most savoury options are cheesy and you can definitely have too many crisps.
Ribena Cupcakes… cordially yours.
I haven’t made cupcakes for absolutely ages, I seem to have been on a cookie/biscuit roll for quite some time.
Maple Syrup Popcorn
Carrying on with my recent run of snacks – here’s a lovely sweet, tempting maple syrup popcorn recipe – perfect for whilst watching a movie, or a slightly healthy after school sna…
Apple and Cinnamon Muffins
Apple and cinnamon is such a fantastic flavour match, and it’s perfect for these dreary, cold and wet winter days.
Maple Syrup Scones
My bottle of maple syrup was looking at me from the kitchen cupboards the other day.
