week 36: coffee cupcakes

Top tip with these is to dissolve the coffee in warm milk and then use this as the base for the moisture of the cake rather than dissolving in water. Makes for a much richer softer cake

Week 35: Triple chocolate cookies


These are one of my favs, chewy in the middle but crispy on the outside. For those who know Millies cookies imagine those but less expensive! I think I might branch out into more flavours in the coming weeks.....

Week 34: Chocolate beetroot cake



Random yes, tasty I think so! Did get mixed reviews on this one though, I think they key is if you don't like beetroot on its own you like this cake (lets face it chocolate makes everything yummy!). But if you like beetroot then you dislike the tainting of chocolate and lets face it are generally a bit odd!

Week 33: Lemon cake

Lemon crunch cake, instead of drizzle cake (controversial I know!) . Actually went down as "the best lemon cake I have ever tasted" - from my discerning cake critic!

Week 32: Cinnamon & Ginger biscuits

An all time favourite that goes down well every time. Not as spicy as a plain gingerbread man but instead with a nice cinnamon twist!
