It’s my two year blog anniversary today! Yay! I can’t really believe it. So much has happened in the past year, in my private life, my personal life, and in my blog life. It’s crazy! I didn’t even realise how much has actually changed until I started thinking about today’s little blog milestone and where I was at a year ago when I wrote this post celebrating Butter’s first birthday. Since writing that post, I … Continue reading →

Double Peanut Butter and Chocolate Chip Cookies (GF)
Okay. Let’s talk about lists. I have about a million things on my “things I want to bake” list. Actually, last time I checked, it was exactly 610. There are 610 things that I want to bake. Not. Even. Kidding. And they’re just the things pinned on Pinterest from other blogs I love. That doesn’t count the recipes I want to make from baking books, the ones I’ve hurriedly ripped out … Continue reading →
Peanut Butter Chocolate Truffle Cookie Cups
So the last couple of weeks have just been crazy full of baking over here in my world. My friend had her engagement party over the weekend, and I was in charge of baking all the treats for her dessert table. It was. Insane. Basically, I was up to my ears in butter, sugar, almond meal, eggs and chocolate. I kept running out of the stuff. I kept having to … Continue reading →
White Chocolate Chip Easy Nutella Brownies [with a Video]
So I filmed more baking videos for you last week!! Yay! Actually, my lovely, amazing, super talented, photographer friend Eddie filmed them for you. And he edited them for you too. Thank you Eddie! The story behind these brownies is that Eddie wanted to bake something from the blog. I’m pretty sure the text I got went like this: “OK buddy I am bored and craving chocolate. It’s time to attempt … Continue reading →
Brownie Sandwich Cookies with Salted Caramel Buttercream
I have more cookies for you today! This time they’re gooey, delicious, brownie cookies. And I’ve filled them with salted caramel buttercream for you too. Lashings of it. I have more cookies for me today. Because Friday was my real-life birthday (I’m slowly getting old, whooo!). And cookies are my favourite. And brownies are my favourite. And anything chocolate is my favourite, really. So what better way to celebrate than with … Continue reading →
Chocolate Espresso Nut Tart
So this tart is just ridiculous. I haven’t made something twice in a row in a really long time. Blogging just doesn’t allow for it – I am constantly wanting to try new things, so that I can test out different recipes, and so I always have something fresh to share with you. But this one was just THAT good, that I had to bake it twice. The photos you see … Continue reading →
Double Chocolate Chip, Espresso, Coconut Hot Cross Buns
So I have a confession to make. I wasn’t going to share a hot cross bun recipe with you this year. I made you some Chocolate Chip Hot Cross Buns (my faves!) last Easter. This year, I was going to make you something a little different (and I’m working on it, so if all goes to plan, you’ll be getting those tomorrow). Anyway, so I wasn’t going to share another … Continue reading →
Homemade Chocolate Hazelnut Baci Chocolates
Oh my gosh. I made homemade chocolate hazelnut spread (aka Nutella) the other day. And it blew my mind. I made it at work, and used it to fill chocolate shortbread sandwich cookies. Then I ate a large portion of it with a spoon, before making another double batch, and turning that into little homemade Nutella tarts to sell in the cafe. Man oh man, why haven’t I gotten onto … Continue reading →
Fudgy Caramel Triple Chocolate Chip Cookies
I have a baking video to share with you today! I have meaning to film some videos for the blog for ages. It was just a matter of finding a friend’s kitchen I loved and annoying said friend enough to let me bake in it (my kitchen has a raised breakfast bar which makes it hard to film in). Anyway. I was at a friend’s house the other day, and … Continue reading →
Peanut Butter Swirled Healthy Fudge Brownie Bites
I have three words for you. Oh. My. Gosh. You are going to love these. The other day I told you about how I skipped ahead of my blogging list to share with you those awesome marshmallow stuffed cookies? Well I REALLY couldn’t wait with these. I’ve made them twice. In the last two days. And both batches are… All gone. Already. So I just had to give you the … Continue reading →
