Auntie Lorna’s Boiled Chocolate Cake is delicious, but it cracks badly every time I bake it. I don’t know what I am doing wrong. Then I started to modify the recipe. I first reduced Flour. Then replaced Butter with Oil. The cake turned very soft and moist, but too fragile. So I reduced Oil. The …
My favourite frosting to coat a Chocolate Cake is Sour Cream Cocoa Frosting. It can be made with Butter, Sour Cream, Sugar and Cocoa Powder. However, I don’t have Sour Cream always. This Chocolate Buttercream Frosting is easy to make using 4 ingredients that I always have. Makes Enough to cover a 20cm Cake Ingredients …
I have a great recipe for ‘Oats & Banana Cookies’. They can be made with No Egg, No Flour, No Dairy. The binding ingredient is Ripe Banana, so they taste Banana. The other day, I wanted to make Cocoa flavoured Oats Cookies, but I didn’t have Banana. So I made a new recipe. You need …

The other day, I read a blog article about a quick and yummy snack that you can make with leftover Hollow Chocolate Easter Egg. It’s a simple sandwich. I tired it, but I buttered the bread quite generously. The combination of Crunchy Chocolate, Butter and Soft White Bread was, as you can guess, heavenly. I …
Today I wanted to make a bitter version of my ‘Super Easy Chocolate Fudge’. I used Cadbury’s Baking Dark Chocolate (70% Cocoa) and added Instant Coffee Granules. I added 1 tablespoonful (15ml) Coffee Granules. The Fudge was fairly bitter, though I could have added a little more as I love very strong coffee. Ingredients 180g …
A few days ago, I wanted to make Chocolate Caramel Slice. To make Chocolate Caramel Slice, you need to bake the base pastry, then pour the Caramel Filling over the base, and bake it again. It’s summer now and I didn’t want to use oven when it is hot. So, I decided to use biscuit …

I have been always interested in American style flat looking Chocolate Chip Cookies. I have compared those recipes with my own recipe. The major differences are the amount of Flour and the amount of Sugar. American recipes require much less Flour and a lot more Sugar. None of the recipes that I checked uses Self-Raising …
Here is an old recipe from my recipe notebook. This Chocolate Salami is made with No-Egg and No-Cream. I found the original recipe in a book many years ago, but it didn’t work well. I reduced the amount of Butter. As it was very bitter, I reduced the amount of Cocoa Powder and started adding …

‘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. …
