After not having been able to bake anything for about 3 or 4 weeks (I can’t even remember), I was very excited to finally be back in my kitchen figuring out a new recipe! When I was in Normandy I bought this really nice silicon mini muffin form and last Monday I thought it was […]

The very first thing I ever posted on Books Baking and Blogging was my brownie recipe. I’ve made it tons of times since (it’s still a favourite — both with me and my friends), but the other day I decided to give it a new little twist. I had some overripe bananas lying around, and […]

It’s almost Christmas! Are you as excited as I am? I love Christmas, and all the good food and company and cosiness that comes with it. I think it’s my favourite time of the year (although I’ve said that before…). I figured I should come up with a nice Christmassy recipe before the day actually […]

Every year, at the beginning of November, my parents’ church organises a jumble sale to raise money for charity. It’s always loads of fun, because everyone’s working together for a good cause which makes for an amazing atmosphere.

Well, summer is definitely over now, so it seems… It’s starting to get dark much earlier, the leaves are changing and, most importantly, it’s getting cold. No more warm, sunny days, my friends. It’s back to warm jumpers and lots of tea. Which is fine by me, to be honest. I’m a sucker for a […]

There’s a logical explanation for that, though. It’s summer. Now, for most people that wouldn’t be a reason to stop baking — in fact, many people […]

This week, I set myself the challenge of trying to make the ultimate cookie (although calling it “cookie” seems wrong): the French macaron! I’d never made these before, and I spent quite a few days researching the process and watching many Youtube videos to ensure they would come out at least somewhat decent. All of the […]

Chocolate orange cheesecake brownies — doesn’t that combination of words just make your mouth water like there’s no tomorrow? That’s what happened to me when I encountered those words on Facebook, and the picture that came with them didn’t help either! I’ve been following Sorted Food on Youtube for a while now, and they keep amazing me […]

Today my aunt was having a high tea for her birthday, and I thought it would be nice to bake something sweet and simple to bring with me. I didn’t feel like baking my usual brownies, but I thought something like it would be perfect, so I made blondies! I’d never made blondies (“blond brownies” […]
