Almost Fudge Gateau

Tuesday, May 6th, 2008

Yay I have finally crossed something off my To-Bake list!!! I found this when trawling through previous Tuesday’s with Dorie entries and it looked so good and I had everything it required!! It really is a super easy and super satisfying cake.

I used half 62% and half 72% so it was overly rich but hey thats the way I like it. The recipe is at Crazy Delicious Food. Pics after the jump.

Vanilla Plum cupcakes

Tuesday, April 29th, 2008

I felt like baking and jam… and trying out the much famed vanilla vanilla magnolia cupcake recipe. Of course you could use whatever jam you have on hand. I desperately wanted a cream cheese frosting but darn it there was none in the fridge (surprise surprise this stuff doesn’t last long around here), and for reasons I will not mention but are painfully related to cycling to and from work I did not feel like walking to the supermarket!! OW.

Recipe, pics after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »

Banoffee Pie

Sunday, April 13th, 2008

Firstly, what the heck wordpress. When I say publish I don’t actually mean delete my entire post so I have to re-write it. But thanks. Its the thought that counts right??

This is actually a Nestle recipe I think… I have had it loose in my recipe drawer for ages and an excuse to make something came up (bible study) and i had all* of the ingredients for a change.. Recipe + 1 pic after the jump…

Actually thanks to a few random circumstances (WordPress 2.5 killing bits of my site, and the automatic upgrade killing even more I will leave you with a few pics until I post the recipe later this week.

*(Except cream, who keeps that lying around anyway)

Dulce De Leche or Caramelized Sweetened Condensed Milk

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

Urrrg. That is how you will feel when you consume as much of this as I have. My advice – do not sample it at all then you won’t have to try and stop yourself from eating it by the spatula-full.

Aunty Robyn’s Rhubarb & Yoghurt cake

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

This cake is so amazing. No one makes it better than Robyn but you can make a pretty good version yourself! It is so moist & one of my husbands favorites and mine too :) Instead of using 2 cups of rhubarb I used 1 cup + 1 of pulped feijoas as we have a ton at the moment. You could use any fruit you desired. I omitted the topping and iced with the passion fruit icing. We also had the Pineapple/Passion fruit variation on the weekend at Robyn’s and I prefer it to the feijoa and rhubarb version.
