There are very few sweet flavour combinations that beat the classic chocolate + orange duo. I got given way too many chocolate oranges for Christmas this year. So of course, I had to use half of one to make some cupcakes for our BBQ on New Years Eve - how kind of me! INGREDIENTS: 12 …

SAUSAGE-LESS ROLLS
Sausage rolls are a must have track snack for our Christmas trip to West Falkland, so of course over the past couple of years I have been perfecting a meat-less version. These went down a treat, even with the die hard meat eaters in the group. Cut them into 2 inch pieces for a good …
CHRISTMAS GRANOLA
In all honesty, this recipe came from a failed attempt at making Christmas cake-like oat bars which I ended up overcooking and ruining! BUT instead of throwing them away and pinning it as a failure - I broke them up in a jar and made granola. Surprisingly it turned out really well, so much so …
Coffee & Chocolate Vermicelli Cupcakes
One of the best ever cake flavour combinations will always be coffee with a hint of chocolate! I made a batch of these for my friend's birthday (and obviously had to make a couple of extra for myself!) but I would highly recommend not sending cake through Royal Mail - lets just say that they …
KHK Family Favourite Chocolate Mousse
At every dinner party I ever remember, my family has made this chocolate mousse up in individual ramekins, served it with some cream & a coffee, and it disappears in minutes with guests left licking the dishes!The key to the richest chocolate mousse is a small and strong shot of fresh coffee. Do not worry …
WALNUT & OAT COOKIES
Here’s a little dose of weekend baking inspo: the ultimate gooey cookie mix! I have used dovesfarm gluten free flour, however you can just as easily use plain flour and they work just as wonderfully. I made these last weekend when my friends trekked down to Cornwall to visit, topped half of them with leftover …
LEMON & BLUEBERRY DRIZZLE LOAF
Name a better flavour combination than lemon & blueberry, I'll wait!I made this recipe with gluten free flour and it worked a treat, but if you’re guests don’t have any annoying dietary requirements, then just use normal flour instead! But whichever flour you decide to use, I promise that it is an absolute crowd pleaser - …
OATY COFFEE BARS
I fuelled our weekend adventure with this tray bake of jazzed-up coffee flapjacks, with lots of extra chia & sunflower seeds for a fibre and calcium boost. INGREDIENTS: • 2 cups jumbo oats • 1/4 cup sunflower seeds • 2 tbsp chia seeds • 8 pitted dates • 1/3 cup strong coffee • 1/3 cup …
STRAWBERRY & OAT COOKIES
After some weekend baking inspo? Or just some inspo for which flavour biscuit to buy at the local cafe this afternoon? Then look no further!My brain was not switched on when I started making the mix for these and it decided to add an egg into the mixture as if I was making a cake. …
CASHEW, COCONUT & RASPBERRY ENERGY BALLS
The perfect snack to pack up and take with you for a day in the library if like me you are studying over summer (you’ve got this!), or to put in a jar to take to work, or just devour in one sitting whilst binge watching a series!These will keep you going through that mid-afternoon …
