Super-Simple Crispy Christmas Puddings

December 16, 2016 By Amy 1 Comment

Crispy Christmas Puddings

When it comes to baking at Christmas time it’s near impossible to not get the kids involved. The boys love nothing more than lending a hand, especially when it involves anything Christmas-y (our ‘beautifully’ decorated Christmas tree backs me up on this…). Where some recipes are best left to grown ups after bedtime, these super-simple Crispy Christmas Puddings from Samantha at Chocolate & Wine and I’ll Be Fine are the perfect bake to get little hands making!

Peanut Butter Cookies

Peanut Butter Cookies

It’s now that time of year when I start to think about what we can bake to give as gifts to friends and family for Christmas. It’s something that Granny has always done but I love how nowadays giving the gift of biscuits, cakes & mince pies at Christmas has become such a popular thing. Today we’ve got a lovely and amazingly simple Peanut Butter Cookie recipe to share from the lovely Lauren at Dilan and Me.

Caramac Cupcakes

It’s no secret that I like to combine some of my everyday favourites into cupcakes (Irn Bru cupcakes is our most popular recipe!) and these Caramac Cupcakes are no exception. Sweet and creamy, with the unmistakable caramel flavour!

Tiffin

August 19, 2016 By Amy 10 Comments

As seen at Foodies Festival Edinburgh 2017!

TiffinAnother day, another tray bake. I know I always say tray bakes are super easy but this one really does take the biscuit! And if we’re being completely honest, I’ve not felt myself recently and as such the desire to bake has just not been there. So I needed something super simple just like Tiffin to get back into my baking routine.Read More

Chocolate Caramel Cupcakes

Chocolate Caramel Cupcakes

The other half laughs at me; I apparently go through phases when it comes to chocolate. I have a handful of favourites of which I alternate between, usually focusing on each one for a couple of months before moving onto the next. January through April it will be Mini Eggs, the rest of the year it is between Wispa Gold, Cadbury Lu and Crunchie. Right now, I’m having a bit of a love affair with caramel so Wispa Gold is the winner as well as the inspiration behind these Chocolate Caramel Cupcakes.Read More

Chocolate Chip Hot Cross Buns

Chocolate Chip Hot Cross Buns recipe from Baking with Granny.

Little known fact for you…I did music as a Standard Grade at school. In fact, it was one of my favourite subjects. I was never really that great at playing music but I loved the theory side of things. One tune I did master on the keyboard however is Hot Cross Buns, even if everyone thinks I’m playing Three Blind Mice whenever I decide to share my skills on the keys.

Easter Maltesers Slice

March 13, 2016 By Amy 3 Comments

Maltesers Slice

When I first asked Granny to share her Maltesers Slice recipe with me, she rattled it off the top of her head without a second thought. This is another one of her recipes that has been well and truly perfected, to the point she knows it straight from memory. Just like Granny’s Fudge Slice recipe, this Maltesers Slice is super easy and super tasty.

Fudge Slice

Fudge Slice

If there’s one kind of recipe that no one can fail at, it’s a tray bake! Deceivingly named as the majority of them don’t require any baking, tray bakes are the perfect way to impress people with your baking skills, without actually having any. Fudge Slice is especially easy and as equally delicious.

Rainbow Cookies

Rainbow Cookies

Stress & mess aside, I really do love baking with The Boys. John in particular loves nothing more than putting on his apron & chef’s hat and getting his hands floury. It doesn’t actually matter what you tell him we’re making, he will always tell people he’s been, “making biscuits!” But as far as recipes for baking with kids go, I’m always a fan of something, quick, easy & with flavours that meet their approval and these Rainbow Cookies come out tops.
