Hazelnut Caramel Layer Cake, Stem Ginger Salted Peanut Cookies, Dark Choc Chip and Coconut Cookies.

 

Strawberry Cheesecake Sponge, Blueberry and Macademia Flapjacks, Courgette Loaf

The Strawberry Cheesecake Sponge was delicious and similar to the previously made Rhubarb and Custard Cake. Its from the bbcgoodfood magazine. The blueberry/nut flapjacks were very nice and from the bbcgoodfood website. Finally the Courgette loaf, from the bbcgoodfood July magazine was nice but not amazing. Nice cream cheese frosting but no nuts in the recipe and the last courgette cake I made ( Hummingbird Bakery) was packed with lots of pecans which really added to the texture and flavour. This recipe also advised to squeeze out as much courgette juice as you can...so much so it made the loaf a little dry. All very edible but I was comparing it to the Hummingbird recipe which was wowza!.

Rhubarb&Custard Streusel Tart, Coconut Tartlets, Oaty Raisin Cookies

Doesn't the Rhubarb tart look lovely....well its not! My tart tin was too small for all that custard, but that didn't stop me continuing to soak the pastry every way possible! (BBC Good food)
The coconut mini tartlets and cookies luckily didn't disappoint!.

Robyns Christening Cake

 

 

Using my faithful 'rich' Guardian Felicity Cloake Chocolate cake with a bottom layer of Avoca's mars bar slices. Bun were just vanilla, with jam in centre, vanilla frosting and decorations. The rest is fondant...with the help of hubby making me some robin stencils.

Chocolate Chip Cookies (Milk&Dark), Anzac Cookies

Well if you like the M&S version then these should be your go to recipe. Found on bbcgoodfood website. I did a mix of half milke chocolate ones and half dark chocolate. Was making them for my chocoholic pal Lisa in Cork and added a few in for myself for good measure. The other cookies are Anzac cookies. A sort of buttery oaty coconut cookie. Same website for recipe and really really easy to make.

Seeded Milk Batch Rolls

Oh these were just great! Dan Lepards milk bread recipe from the Guardian  had turned out great in the past so I decided to mix it up and make them into batch rolls- sprinkled with poppy seeds and pumpkin seeks. They are fluffy and a little sweet. Perfect with just butter/ for soup or do with my hubby did and jam pack them with bacon and black pepper mayo. I would definately recommend. A little bit of kneading and an hour of rising in between is all it takes.

Black Pepper Rye Bread

This was a fail I'm afraid! But it was because I thought I had Rye flour at home and instead had Spelt flour. The bread was just too tough so note to self.....substituting different flours does not work!
