Shortbread Pudding

Ok, so this dessert was born out of a bit of a disaster. I had been tasked with making shortbread for Burns Night and, er, it went a bit wrong, which I thought was impossible with such a simple recipe. Anyway, I didn’t want to waste the massive batch of shortbread, because even though it was completely the wrong texture, ...

Heavenly Raspberry Brownies

I had an amazing raspberry brownie while I was in New Zealand (from an AMAZING coffee shop called Joe’s Garage – if you go to NZ, find your nearest one and get their pikelets (pancakes) for breakfast!). When I got back, I just had to have a go at making my own! You can use fresh raspberries (which are better)...

I use the word velvet because the texture...

But I’m determined to conquer it (with the help of my new Roux book!), so I made an apple tart for the first time last week, and it actually turned out really well! I based the pastry on Roux’s flan pastry recipe and then went solo from there. It was absolutely...

Traditional English Custard

I made this custard to go with a crumble over the weekend and my friends absolutely loved it. No one believed me when I told them it was ridiculously easy, so I’m publishing the proof! With this easy peasy recipe, you’ll never be reaching for the tinned stuff again. I created this recipe after trying a few different ones and...
