Rhubarb Flapjack Slices
I grow a few rhubarb plants in one of my raised beds. Last year the poor things had all their light pinched by my grapevine so we had a very small crop, this year they have fared a lot better albeit a tad later then most! I decided to give them a whirl with … Continue reading
Margarita Puffs
You may know I am rather partial to the odd margarita cocktail! Here’s my Margarita Slush recipe if you fancy trying it https://www.samskitchen.net/?p=122 Well, a little while ago I had this idea, making profiteroles with a twist. If you’ve never made choux pastry before it’s probably a lot easier then you think. I filled mine … Continue reading
Eton Mess Mini Cheesecakes
I was recently asked by the lovely Hani hanielas.blogspot.com if I would like to take part in a bloggers recipe gathering, YES please was my reply! The theme is Berrylicious, the idea, to come up with a new recipe using berries of some type. Well with summer on it’s way (she says typing away while … Continue reading
Rice Crispie Cakes
These are always a welcome sight at home and so easy to make. They are, in my opinion, much nicer then the chocolate ones. But you can be the judge of that……. This is pretty much the original 1970’s Kelloggs recipe I think, apart from the extract & not essence bit! … Continue reading

Heart Centre Cupcakes
I saw this lovely idea a while back and thought they would be great for Valentines Day. I really should have had a look at how they were made, but thought ‘hey it can’t be that hard’! It was just a little bit time consuming with a bit of planning needed but I was … Continue reading
Baileys Truffles
I was recently given a truffle recipe by the lovely lady running a marzipan shaping day I attended. She had made a batch for us to eat and gave out the recipe. The thing that I liked (apart from the taste of course) was that they do not contain fresh cream, when they have cream … Continue reading
