My Creative Space...

Today we are making those cookies we had planned to start the
other day.

Have you made your cuppa yet, let's pop round to Kirsty's and say hi to some others.

You can also pop round here for some date scones and I absolutely LOVE these cupcakes.

Have a wonderful April and a great Easter weekend with your family whether you celebrate or not.

    I watched Nigella the other night with William (my 3yo - he's obsessed! Uh oh) and she has a real cookie cutter collection going on... but i reckon you might be able to rival her.

    [Come to think of it, I reckon you could rival her on a number of fronts. All flattering, of course.]

    Happy april to you too. That pile-up of dough looks a bit scary, I thought there were fatalities!

    I hope you got them all the way to eaten with out any further “interruptions”. I also hope your sweet boy is on the mend, I suspect lots of chocolate this weekend will help any lingering headache!

    Please tell me you ate some of that dough? ;) Oh and I am soooo trying that recipe. And I will be eating some of the dough!

    Can't stop for cookies (although that dough alone looks desperately good enough to eat), date scones OR cupcakes. I'm here to say hello and then look up your hot cross bun recipe. Salivating already. You're going to have to start posting a daily exercise regime with all these calories lying about...

    We have made Easter chocolates. Flavoured them peppermint and strawberry. They are not too bad with a bit of flavouring. Had terrible trouble with our white chocolate though. It just didn't melt and became a horrible lumpy mess. Your bikkies look much nicer. Happy Easter.

Honey Jumbles

I just realised that I have been using honey and spices in alot of things lately, I guess it's because it's winter and the smells and tastes make you feel warm and sweet. Have been thinking about making Honey Jumbles for a while and saw them over at Liss's the other day and definitely had to try them as they look and believe me they smell soooo good!  My critics advise me they are delicious and very moreish. Honey Jumbles ingredients 90g butter 3/4 cup honey 2 cups plain flour 1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda 1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger 1 1/2 teaspoons mixed spice 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 2 tablespoons milk   icing 1 egg white 1 1/2 cups icing sugar, sifted vanilla extract  strawberry paste Method Place butter and honey in a saucepan and slowly bring to the boil over a low heat. Simmer for a few minutes, then allow to cool for about 15 minutes Sift flour, bicarbonate of soda and spices and add to butter mixture, gently stir in milk.  A...

Berrylicious ice cream recipe and a giveaway for you

Image
As the weather warms up the kids tend to ask for something cold and yummy to enjoy after school. Reading the ingredients labels on ice cream I feel at a loss trying to figure out what all those numbers mean, I mean really, it’s just ice cream, how many ingredients need to be in there after all. I love to try and make everything from scratch so why not ice cream, well I had a go and using an ice cream maker made it really quick and easy. Here’s a basic recipe I made using a Cusinart ice cream maker Berrylicious ice cream Makes 1 litre Ingredients     ¾ cup whole milk   ½ cup sugar or honey if you prefer 1½ cups cream 150grams mixed berries, thawed and slightly mashed with a fork Method U sing a mixer or hand whisk, mix milk and sugar in a bowl for a few minutes until sugar has dissolved   Add cream and mix until combined Turn the machine on and pour the mixture into freezer bowl, and let it mix until thickened, about 25 minut...
