I was at a barbecue at the weekend and had THE BEST chocolate cheesecake I’ve ever eaten. So much so that I had to beg for the recipe. The best news is, I couldn’t believe how easy it was, so I had to share…. Ingredients The cake base… 1 pack of Chocolate Bourbon biscuits Melted…

You give me manky apples… I give you applesauce cake!!
I had the most fantastic bank holiday weekend up in London!!! Not only did I stay up all night TWO nights in a row, but I got to reconnect with an old friend, act like a teenager and revisit one of my old stomping grounds….the Vauxhall Tavern which, thanks to the Flabulous Amy Lamé and…
My rhubarb and morello cherry crumble…
I’ve had a few requests for the recipe for last nights dessert so thought I’d post it online and send the link to people. It actually started life as a basic rhubarb crumble but when I’d cooked the rhubarb I realised I didn’t have enough for a satisfying dessert so I fell back on my…
Its not a freezer, it’s a Tardis!!!
There’s a joke in our house about my freezer being a Tardis. This all stems from the time that my ‘best before date’ obsessed hubby sat down to a meal at my mothers where she proudly announced that she’d found the joint at the back of the freezer and it was dated 2 years before….
My Flabulous Cottage Pie
Short and sweet this week as, yes you guessed it, we are both hungover after a Flabulous Saturday night out. I’m sure you’ve all by now seen a pattern which means comfort food and today that means cottage pie!! I knew last night would be a big one so I got prepared and made this…

Choc & Cherry Hot Cross Buns
I was tempted by adverts for Marks & Spencer’s chocolate hot cross buns for this easter but they were sooo expensive and I wanted to bake so I thought I’d try and make my own!! Unfortunately all the recipes I saw online had candied peel in, which I detest, so I thought about using maraschino…
Easter delights…..
It’s that time of year again which I always think of as my little surprise celebration! You see with Birthdays-I always know where I am! Christmas is easy, December 25th – Prep starts in November!! But Easter is the most wonderful of celebrations for me as you never know quite when it’s going to happen!!…
My perfect Sunday Roast post….
There is nothing like a sunday roast for bringing people together. Yet when I’ve spoken to family, friends, and fellow bloggers its the one thing, other than getting a cooked breakfast right, that gives them grey hairs. I’ve tried to make this as simple as possible and this post could go on forever, but I…
Snow Day CassOlé
I’ve been rooting round in my kitchen since lunch and have found some interesting purchases!! I’ve got some great raw chorizo from the freezer and have lots of tins of various beans so I thought I’d combine two of my favourites into a Spanish inspired cassoulet which of course needs to be called my Snow…
