Nutella cookies!

Hello friends,

So..... Nutella. Anyone else obsessed with this? I love the chocolate-hazelnut yumminess and will spread it over pancakes, toast, muffins, crumpets, anything really that seems like a good combo. So it struck me the other day, that I haven't made the most appealing bake - Nutella cookies! This recipe only has three ingredients, it is so simple and makes gooey cookies that won't stick around for long! 




Ingredients:

130g plain flour
260g Nutella
1 egg
Extra Nutella for the gooey center

Method:

Preheat the oven to 180C/ 160C fan assisted.

Mix together the three cookie ingredients and beat well until the dough is consistent. It will be quite a greasy dough and will stick together well.

Take a spoonful of mixture and roll into a ball, flatten slightly and make a little well in the middle. Put a teaspoon of Nutella into the well and then take another spoonful of dough, roll and flatten then cover the Nutella. Press the two halves together to make sure the filling doesn't escape.

Place on a baking tray and bake for about 8 minutes. These will not look cooked when you take them out, so leave them to cool fully before tucking in. I bet you can't just eat one :)

BBC Good Food Caramel Brownies

Another get together with friends has prompted some more baking (whilst the baby is sleeping) and the salted caramel cover recipe from a BBC Good Food issue from a while back caught my eye. I have been storing this recipe waiting for a good excuse to bake it, and I can say (after scoffing a few), these brownies do not disappoint and will be made again. Brownies are very easy to make, the one stumbling point I often find is the temperature of the oven and the time they are baked for - as ovens vary vastly this is quite hard to write into a recipe, but I have a fan assisted fairly new over which bakes quite hot. They key for baking the brownies is checking after the stated time, and they should still be a little liquid in the middle if you want moist squishy squares. Leaving them to cool completely in the tin is also an essential, as if they are cut too early they may still be too liquid. Time to make batter - around 15 minutes Baking time - 35 minutes depending on your oven I

Classic Victoria Sponge

Hello friends, As we are in Wimbledon week, what better cake to celebrate with than the classic Victoria Sponge, with a cream and strawberries filling. This is a beautiful looking cake and an ideal desert to the countless BBQs and outdoor meals as we celebrate the coming of summer. Ingredients: 175g softened butter 175g caster sugar 175g self raising flour 3 duck eggs 250ml double cream 1 tbsp icing sugar 1 tub of strawberries, halved  Method: This makes an 18 inch sandwich cake. Preheat oven to 180C/ 170C fan assisted. In a bowl beat together the sugar and butter until it is pale and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time and mix well. The mixture may separate a little after the eggs are added, but this will come together as you beat it. Fold in the flour gently, and pour the batter into two greased sandwich tins, then put into the oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven when golden and allow to cool fully. Whilst cooling, whip the double cream until it forms

Indulgent Chocolate Cake

Hello friends, A good rich, moist chocolate cake is up there in my top 3 of cake types, so here it is - my new favourite recipe. I made this for a birthday lunch, and wanted a little bit of wow, which is why I coated the cake in a white buttercream, and then poured a chocolate ganache over the top. I like how it turned out, although coating the cake was fairly time consuming and I kept getting crumbs in the icing so it wasn't perfect! Ingredients: 200g plain flour 80g cocoa powder 200g caster sugar 1 tsp baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 2 duck eggs 100g vegetable oil 2 tsp vanilla 175g milk 75g warm water 180g soft butter 560g icing sugar A dash of milk 100g milk chocolate 100g double cream Method: This makes an 18 inch sandwich cake. Preheat oven to 180C/ 160C fan assisted. In a bowl mix together the flour, cocoa, caster sugar, baking powder and salt. Make sure this is well incorporated then add the wet ingredients, eggs, oil,
