Hazelnut and Orange Marmalade tart


It keeps raining, things are getting worse, don't know what to do, I just have to bake to release stress.

method
  • place flour and butter into a food processor and process until mixture resembles bread crumbs
  • add icing sugar and pulse until it is mixed through
  • lightly whisk egg with a few drops of cold water and add whilst motor is running
  • once mixture comes together take out, flatten and wrap in plastic wrap and place in fridge for about 30 minutes
  • roll out pastry about 2-3mm thick on a lightly floured surface and line tart tin with removable base
  • prick pastry with a fork and refrigerate for another 30 minutes
  • preheat oven to 180C/160C fan

Hope you are doing well, hope this rain would stop and the sun would shine again.

    This looks super yummy. We are still trying to get through all of the sweet treats that we baked during all of our rain. When you are homebound, you just need to cook!! It's settling, reassuring and comforting. I think that my waistline is glad that the sun is shining today.

    Thanks for the great list for the QLD flood relief. I am organising a dolly drive. You can read all about it on my blog.

    Your sunflower is very pretty - most of ours have fallen over with the rain!

    I had all these plans to be a Kitchen Goddess over my vacation Cathie, but it came & went without a single thing baked! However, on seeing this scrumptious tart I will quickly make amends. Mystic Millie's crystal ball is seeing many wonderful things for you in 2011 - now go & enjoy them!

    That looks great! My hubby hates fruit so desserts are tricky but he may go for the citrus hazelnut combo. I'll give it a whirl. Thanks

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.

Berrylicious ice cream recipe and a giveaway for you

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.
