Easy Cinnamon Scrolls (No Yeast!)
These cinnamon scrolls are definitely hard to beat. They’re soft and fluffy, packed with cinnamon, and most importantly super easy to make! This cinnamon scroll recipe is adapted from one of the most popular recipes that I have shared on the blog - my 3 ingredient scones!

Since then I have created a fruit scone version and a chocolate chip scone version and they’re also very popular in my … [Read more...]
2 Ingredient Dark Chocolate Coconut Bark
This delicious 2 ingredient coconut bark is one of the most addictive snacks I have ever made! It is so hard not to keep going back for ‘just one more piece’ – it doesn’t last long in our house! Last year a member of my family was diagnosed with a sulphite allergy. For those who don’t know, sulphites are used as a preservative in a range of products ranging from wine to dried fruits. Lately we’ve been trying to eliminate all sulphite containing products from our pantry. I like to use … [Read more...]
2 Ingredient Fudge Recipe (Made 3 Ways!)
This 2 ingredient fudge is super quick and easy to make and you don’t need any sweetened condensed milk! Better still you can enjoy it in 3 flavours; caramel, chocolate, and choc caramel! This recipe was actually discovered by accident a few weeks ago. It came about when I mixed some leftover melted white chocolate buttons with some Hershey’s caramel syrup. I put it in the fridge to set and I thought it would set hard. But to my surprise, once it was cold, it had set in a fudge-like … [Read more...]
Heatwave Busting Summer Snickers Milkshake
Looking for a cooling summer ice cream treat? This indulgent Snickers Milkshake is just the thing to cool you down when the mercury starts rising! Oh my goodness it has been an insanely hot summer so far! Most of January was hot but the middle two weeks were the worst. We had 15 days in a row over 30 °C (86 °F) and seven of those were over 40 °C (104 °F)! I love summer but that is just too hot! The only upside to weather that hot is that you get to have lots of cold drinks, ice cream and … [Read more...]
Easy Steamed Christmas Plum Pudding
One of my favourite things about Christmas is being able to have some Christmas plum pudding! There is nothing better on Christmas day than topping a big piece of plum pudding with some cream and ice cream. Some will add custard too, but I’m not a big custard fan! ;) The Christmas puddings we had when I was kid were usually store bought ones but I loved them anyway. It was a taste that we only had on Christmas so cutting the plum pudding was very exciting! Over the years I have fallen out … [Read more...]
Florentine Squares Recipe (Only 5 Ingredients!)
This recipe for Florentine squares is definitely a keeper! They are so quick and easy to whip up and you only need 5 ingredients! Before this year the last time I made Florentines was in high school! They were good to eat but I remember them being a bit fiddly to make. Back then we made traditional Florentines which are round. This meant that we had to get the right amount of mixture so that the Florentines were all the same size and shape. Something that I’m not always good at! This … [Read more...]
Easy and Delicious Chocolate Chip Scones
Today I am sharing by far the easiest chocolate chip scone recipe that you will ever find. And if you’re after soft and fluffy chocolate chip scones this recipe is definitely the best one going around too! I have to admit I haven’t had too many chocolate chip scones in my lifetime. Up till now I have been more of a fruit scone person, maybe raisins, sultanas or mixed dried fruit. I prefer scones with add in’s because it eliminates the need for extra toppings. I often whip up a batch of these … [Read more...]
