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 …
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. …
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 …
I had some leftover Brioche Bread that was getting dry, and that was actually perfect for Pudding. I made Brioche Pudding for my family and it was delicious. I am now writing down how I made it. I added Stewed Apple, but it is optional. You can add Ripe Pear instead. This recipe is for …
Sweet Potatoes are often used for making cakes and pies, but ordinary Potatoes are not. I recently leaned that Potatoes are used for sweet cakes in many regions in Europe, so I tried. You can make a sponge cake using just Mashed Potatoes replacing Wheat Flour, but I prefer the cake made with Almond Meal …
I was going to cook Brioche French Toast. French Toast needs to be cooked at low heat and it actually takes quite a long time. I prepared 4 slices of Brioche Bread and they didn’t fit in my frying pan. I didn’t want to cook 2 batches. So, I tried to bake them in the …
I had a lot of leftover Dried Fruit in my pantry. I decided to make a Fruit Cake and looked for recipes. I found many recipes on the internet, but most recipes are for a very large cake. So, I used my Basic Pound Cake recipe, replaced Caster Sugar with Brown Sugar, and added Dried …
‘Clafoutis’ is a simple French dessert and it is like thick custard. Traditionally Clafoutis is made with Cherries, but I use a variety of Fruit. Peaches and Nectarines are good. Raspberries are also great. Just fill a pie dish with Fruit, cover with the batter, and bake it in the oven. It is absolutely easy …
My very first experience to taste ‘Dates’ was Sticky Date Pudding. It was after I moved to Australia. I liked the flavour of Sticky Date Pudding, but I thought it was overwhelmingly sweet. It is always good to make it at home, because I can alter the amount of Sugar. Today I made these Cupcakes …
My family’s consumption of Yoghurt has dropped after we stopped eating Granola, that is a very high calorie food. I have been making Greek Yoghurt at home for many years, but I must say I have to stop making it as nobody is eating it. The reason why I made these Yoghurt Scones was simple. …
Magic Cake turns into three layers when baked. Sometimes it turns into only 2 layers of Custard and Sponge, but it is still good. My basic ‘Magic Cake’ recipe is very versatile and you can add extra ingredient(s) for flavours. Today I added Lemon Zest and Lemon Juice. I was happy with the result. The …

I want to pay tribute this remarkable woman with this recipe. This recipe was written by her in her letter sent to the US president Eisenhower in …
