The other day I saw bags of Rocky Road being sold at an extortionate price. Rocky Road is a popular treat, particularly for Christmas OR Halloween seasons, and it is ABSOLUTELY EASY to make. Chocolate and Marshmallows are the main ingredients. You can add anything extra you like. Cake Tin 20cm to 22cm Square Cake …
The other day I made ‘Dates & Cocoa Spread’. I added no sugar at all, but it was very sweet. I used it to make these healthy slices. To be honest, I thought a little bit more sweetness was required to enjoy them, so I added a small handful of Dark Chocolate Chips today. This …
I looked for a recipe of Scones that can be made with Almond Meal, but most recipes that I found required some sort of Flour(s) as well. So, I tried to make my own, based on my Scone recipe. Replacing Wheat Flour with Almond Meal didn’t work. I needed to alter the recipe. I ended …
There are many different names for this type of sweet confections. This ‘Almond Flake Praline’ is very similar to my ‘Almond Toffee’. You don’t need to add Butter, but I add a small amount for a flavour. It is quite quick and easy to make, and this Praline turns a very ordinary ice cream into …
Many Almond Croissant recipes can be found on the internet. Most recipes are identical. They use already baked Croissants, make Almond Cream first, cut Croissants in half, sandwich some Almond Cream, spread some Almond Cream on top and scatter Almond Flakes, then bake. Many people add Flour to Almond Cream, but I don’t want to …

Granita is similar to Shaved Ice and it is easy to make. Freeze sweetened liquid such as Fruit Juice, Coffee, Syrup, etc. until icy, and break up into crystals using a fork. Today I froze Almond Milk. I used store bought Almond Milk, so it was easy to make, and very refreshing. Makes 2 Servings …
A dish that was cooked by a friend of mine, her name is Shelley, inspired me to cook this salad. Shelley used a variety of Root Vegetables and more ingredients including Pepitas and Pine Nuts. Today I tried to cook something similar using limited ingredients I had, and it was not bad at all. This …
These cookies melt in your mouth. I love the delicate powdery texture of these cookies. The cookie dough needs to be dry and just moist enough so that you can form it into balls. DO NOT add more Sugar to the dough because I think it will ruin the flavour. The cookies will get coated …
As we all know Coffee and Chocolate are a great combination. This is a delightful cold dessert that is easy to make, however, it takes time as you need to cool it in fridge. I like Coffee Jelly not very sweet, rather bitter and aromatic. When jellies are set, you need to decorate the parfait. …
I made this Lemon Cake for someone who is allergic to some flours. As I was not sure which flour was OK, it was best to use no flour at all. This is Almond Meal 100% cake. If the person was allergic to dairy, I could omit Butter. This is a very moist delicious cake. …
