Lots of restaurants serve brownies with a side of ice cream, so I figured why not combine the two? These are the perfect treat for a hot day, and you can cut them into little squares and enjoy straight from the freezer whenever you feel like a little pick me up! Continue reading
Chocolate? Or peanut butter? Chocolate? Or peanut butter? These are the kind of serious, real world, life changing quandaries I find myself having to answer on a daily basis when I’m deciding, for example, what flavour frosting my cupcakes are going to have. Well HAVE I GOT NEWS FOR YOU my friends. I’ve only gone and come up with an easy way to enjoy both. Continue reading
These came to me in a dream. Like for real. I woke up in the middle of the night and had to jot down the idea on my phone because I was so scared of forgetting about them come the morning. Such was my excitement that I woke up ridiculously early, left Mr H and baby H snoozing away together in bed and went down to the kitchen to get baking. Continue reading
When it comes to recipes where I really feel I’ve hit the nail on the head, I get a bit excited sometimes. Having made these, I knew I was onto something, so quickly photographed them (also quickly because it was so hot they were melting and because baby H was losing her patience at not being able to eat them), uploaded my pics and posted a photo on Instagram promising the recipe to you guys that very evening.
I love rice Krispy cakes any time of year, but there’s something very Eastery about them indeed. Make them into a nest and chuck some eggs in the middle and you’ve got the perfect easy to make Easter treat.

Last Easter, when baby H was 21 months (and baby H 2.0 was just a twinkle in his daddy’s eye) we went on an awesome trip to Washington DC. It was great with a toddler, loads of things to see, so many museums (which were all free entry, even the zoo) and delicious food. But the highlight for baby H was definitely Easter Sunday.

I know you know about rocky road, but what if I told you there was an equally as delicious version that comes out around this time of year? Because I don’t know about you, but I love me a little white chocolate version of anything, and these are just sublime.
In the winter the rocky roads tend to get covered with a little snow you see. Sounds treacherous, but luckily our friends with their glitter vans are usually on the case. But they haven’t made it to my kitchen (guess it would be weird if they did not to mention a bit messy) so my roads are officially snow-covered. Continue reading
Last year I made jars of granola as Christmas/Hanukkah presents for my family. This year I think it might be cookies. Not only do cookies taste delicious you see, but also you can stack them high, wrap them in some cellophane with a nice piece of ribbon and hey presto, just call me Santa. Continue reading
