‘Puff Pastry Twists’ are a very easy snack that you can make with 1 sheet of Frozen Puff Pastry. I have shared some very easy recipes for Puff Pastry Twists on this website. The filling can be Cinnamon Sugar, Jam, Chestnut Cream, Custard, OR anything. It can be savoury. Today I used Anchovy, Garlic, Chilli, …
The other day, I wanted make Oats Scones and I looked for recipes. Most recipes I found required some sorts of Flour. Some recipes required something I had never heard of. Those recipes were not good for me because I wanted to use just Oats. I ended up starting a new challenge. This recipe requires …
The other day I made ‘Matcha Melting Moments’ and I had some leftover Matcha & White Chocolate Cream. I added some Flour and made a few cookies, and those cookies were really good. Then I tried to make them using my Shortbread recipe. The dough turned very dry and I needed to alter the recipe. …
I have made all sorts of Scones in my life. I often add Fruit, Chocolate, Nuts and Seeds, Pumpkin, Banana, Coffee, Earl Grey Tea, Matcha, etc. Why have I never ever thought of adding ‘Tsubu-an’ (Sweet Azuki Paste)? Today I had some leftover ‘Tsubu-an’. I was planning to use it for a cake, then I …
I love ‘Melting Moments with Lemon Cream’. I bet you do, too. If you love Matcha, these ‘Matcha Melting Moments’ must be irresistible. I normally use Custard Powder to make regular Melting Moments, but, for these Matcha Melting Moments, I used Corn Starch because I didn’t want to add yellow colour to the cookies. You …

I came across a blog story written about a fruit salad cake that was made with mixed fresh fruit such as Banana, Apple, Pineapple and Berries. When I read it, I hit on an idea that I could use the can of Fruit Salad, which had been sitting in the pantry for a long time. …
My ‘Basic Pound Cake’ recipe requires 125g of each Butter, Sugar, Eggs and Self-Raising Flour (OR Plain Flour & Baking Powder). I replaced Butter with 1 Avocado, which was about 125g when mashed. I didn’t add any Oil at all. The cake is moist and the texture is almost the same but obviously not oily …
I used to make these doughnuts with finely grated Carrot only. One day I added some leftover canned crushed Pineapple, which I always add to ‘My Legendary Carrot Cake’, the flavour was improved and I liked it very much. Then I started adding Pineapple. Carrot only version is also very nice. If you use just …
I am a big fan of Lemon Curd Slice, but Lemon Curd contains a large amount of Butter and you need a lot of Lemon Juice to make it. This ‘Lemon Squares’ tastes almost the same but much lighter, and you can make it with just 1 Lemon. This is a very easy recipe. You …
Lorna is my husband’s Great-Auntie. You might know Lorna’s Scone recipe, which is now known by many people globally. Lorna left some great recipes for the next generation. This is another Lorna’s recipe for ‘Boiled Chocolate Cake’, that is the most moist and delicious Chocolate Cake I ever baked. However, this is a huge cake …
Today I was organising my old recipes that I wrote many years ago, then I came across this ‘Blueberry & White Chocolate Scones’ recipe. It was nearly 20 years ago, I fell in love with a Blueberry & White Chocolate Scone that I bought from a local bakery. Because it was quite expensive, I tried …
