    Coconut & Almond Cake (Gluten-Free)

    When I first made this cake, it was to use up a can of Coconut Cream, which I bought by mistake. I often use Coconut Milk for cooking, but not Coconut Cream. Because of the high oil content of Coconut Cream, I didn’t add Butter to this cake. I didn’t add Flour either. I made …

    Coconut Milk Cake

    The other day, I baked ‘Coconut Cake’. As it was made with Desiccated Coconut, it had grainy texture. Some people like the grainy texture of Coconut Cake, but some people don’t. So, today I made this cake without Desiccated Coconut. It’s actually based on my ‘Pancakes‘ recipe. I used Coconut Milk and added some melted …

    Strawberry Cupcakes

    I used my ‘Basic Plain Cupcakes’ recipe to make these Strawberry Cupcakes, but I replaced Milk with pureed Strawberries. As the Strawberries that I used were a little sour, I should have added extra Sugar. These pink coloured Cupcakes look pretty and they smelled amazing when baking in the oven. You may wish to decorate …

    No-Bake Mango Cheesecake

    I had a large Mango in the fridge and I knew we needed to eat it soon. Then my husband bought two Mangos, and there were three. That’s enough to make this delicious dessert. It is not difficult to make, but it takes time. If you make it in the morning, it will be ready …

    ‘Whatever Fruit You Have’ Cake

    This cake batter is actually my Basic Plain Cupcake batter, that is very versatile and I use it most frequently. You can add ‘Whatever Fruit You Have’ to it and make a simple Fruit Cake. Fruit can be fresh, cooked, canned OR frozen. Today I added Apple and Canned Plums, which I have been struggling …

    Apple Clafoutis

    Clafoutis is a delicious dessert and it is easy to make. I often use soft fruit such as Cherries, Raspberries, Peaches, Ripe Pears, etc. Today I wanted to use Apples, but I didn’t want to bother pre-cooking them, so I sliced them thinly and combined with the batter. It turned out really good. This is …

    Mug Brownie

    ‘Brownies’ is a delicious cake but it is not quick & easy to make. If it is just for you, Mug Brownie is a good option. It tastes great and it takes no more than 5 minutes to make it. Very energy efficient. I thought it would taste better when cooled, but I couldn’t wait. …

    Chestnut Paste Mug Cake

    I bought a jar of Sweet Chestnut Paste (Chestnut Cream) to make ‘Mont Blanc Cake’, and there was a little bit leftover that I needed to use up. This is the easiest cake that I can make using it. If you have a microwave, this mug cake can be made in 5 minutes. Makes 1 …

    Mixed Fruit Slice

    Several months ago, I bought a packet of Mixed Dried Fruit. I needed to use it and decided to make Mixed Fruit Slice. To make this type of cake, you really don’t need a recipe, do you? I just mixed cake ingredients that I wished to use, then added Milk to make the right texture. …

    Lemon Delicious

    Lemon Delicious is a classic dessert and it is similar to my ‘Lemon Magic Cake’. It has layers of fluffy sponge and gooey lemon custard. Many recipes require a lot of Sugar. 1 cup OR even more Sugar for 4 servings is scary. I feel 2 tablespoons per serving would be the maximum. I understand …

    Blondies with Macadamia Nuts

    When I first made Blondies, I used my ‘Brownies‘ recipe and I simply replaced Dark Chocolate with White Chocolate. It didn’t work. White Chocolate version became too wet. You would definitely need more Flour. Today I added Macadamia Nuts, that are native to Australia. You can use other nuts such as Walnuts, Almonds OR Pistachios. …

    Grated Pumpkin Cake

    Most Pumpkin Cake recipes require mashed (OR pureed) Pumpkin. I wanted an easier recipe. Then I decided to use my own ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’ recipe, replacing Carrot with Pumpkin. I didn’t add Pineapple and Sultanas to this Pumpkin Cake, but you may wish to add them. The result? It was seriously delicious. Makes 1 …
