Chocolate Fudge Triangles :D

Once again, this is from "The Cookie and Biscuit Bible", its also probably the most unhealthy thing i've even made, but i don't care because it tastes sooo good :D

Sorry the photos are kinda rubbish but it was around 10:30pm when i was doing most of the recipe so the lighting wasn't amazing.

This recipe uses a lot, (a lot!) of chocolate and condenced milk, so if you aren't really a dessert person or you don't like really sweet things i probably wouldn't recomed these for you. Fortunatly i love sweet things so these were great for me :)



For the fudge you can use hazelnnuts if you like, i didn't because i'm allergic and i don't think it affected the the triangles in a bad way at all. remember to keep stirring the chocolate and condenced milk the whole time you're melting it, or it goes kinda weird.



If you plan on making this make sure you have a lot of time because you do have to chill it for 15 mins, then add another layer, cill again ect. and at the end you can chill it for 2-4 hours as the recipe says but i just left it in the fridge over night and it was fine. :)




once again there's mooore chocoalte, (fine by me :) make sure you don't melt the chocolate for to long after all the lumps are gone because it goes a little grainy if you do.












Make sure that once you take your fudge out of the fridge to cut it that you don't take to long because it goes soft really quickly. Then once you're done put it back in the fridge until you need it. if you like you can cut it smaller than the recipe calls for and use them as little sweets. someone also talked to me about making them as wedding favours.

I would recomend this recipe to anyone with a sweet tooth :) happy baking :Dx

Double Chocolate Cookies :D

So like i said in my last post, this recipe and the next one i'll be reviewing are from the "cookie and buscuit bible"

Ooooh my goodness i'm so in love with this cookie recipe. it's really really simple and they take hardly any time to make :)

I'm totally into using brown suger for cookies right now, it gives them a nicer colour and they taste more toffee-ish. I also like using the rolled oats, it looks kinda weird until after they're cooked but it does give them a really nice texture :)

The recipe calls for plain chocolate and white chocolate but i can't eat plain chocolate so i just used milk and it turned out fine but you could used chopped nuts or whatever you like.

Another good thing about this recipe (and all the recipes from this book i've tried out already) is that it actually makes the amount of cookies that it says it will. I hate it when i have to make a second batch of something because it didn't make enough the first time.

Presentation isn't very important with these cookies which i love, they look really nice and rustic and all you have to do is spoon them onto the tray :)

I would recomend this recipe to pretty much anyone, its really quick and easy to make and they taste sooo good :) thanks :Dx

Sugar Cookies :D

Alright so to start, the recipe i used was from "The Cookie And Biscuit Bible"By Catherine Atkinson with recipes by Joanna Farrow and Valerie Barrett. I only got the book at the weekend so i expect i'll writing about a few more recipies form this book in the distant future :)

 Sugar cookies are brilliant because they're really really smiple and i love this recipe because it doen't need milk or eggs which is awesome because i always run out of them first. The instructions in the recipe are very clear and simple so even if you don't bake a lot you'll know exactly what to do :)

.
Another good thing about this recipe is that halfway through you neeed to chill it for a half hour, this means you can just forget about it for a while, go the the shop, hoover whatever you want and then put them in the oven when you you're done.


The sugar around the outside of the cookies kinda caramelised while they were cooking which was really nice and made them taste a little toffee- ish.



 For these cookies i would recomend making the dough and putting it in the fridge before you eat your tea/dinner and then put them in the oven when you're finished. This means you can have warm cookies for your dessert :)


This is a great recipe and i'll definitely be making these cookies again, they worked out really well :D x
