Upgrading penda with some homemade dulce de leche. When I say homemade, I really mean simmering a can of condensed milk for 3 hours. Yep, that’s pretty much it. Peda is an Indian sweet, it’s soft and rich and delicious! As much as I love Indian sweets I sometimes find them way too sweet, hence the […]
Boston Cream Pie
One thing for sure, my family lost their minds when I made this, each recipe I create always starts off by me explaining exactly what I hope to achieve. They never get or understand me. Mainly because I’m a creative and they’re mostly technical minded and I can sometimes find it quite difficult to put […]
Strawberry and Basil Cheesecake Ice Cream
I love South Africa, the people, the food and most of all the weather. How gorgeous has the weather been this past weekend? Amazing right? I’m sure you’ve guessed that I am a summer baby, I adore summer dresses, summer sandals, summer salads, basically all things that summer brings, including ice cream! Going through my […]
Guacamole
I don’t know about you but I love dunking crispy bacon into a bowl of homemade guacamole. Homemade is the best and this comes from buying store bought guacamole and never feeling quite satisfied. My version includes all the basics like avocado’s, chilli flakes, green chilli or jalepeno, baby tomatoes, dhania and chaat masala. Yes, […]
Magic bars with Bakers® Good Morning Rusks
When I said Bakers® Good Morning Rusks are more than just for dunking, I meant it! These bars require no mixing, and are made by just layering the ingredients in a baking tin – I know these sounds too good to be true. No creaming of butter and no whisking and mixing either! What I […]
Brinjal and Tomato Pasta
I have to admit I struggle to get my kids to eat their veggies, it’s a constant battle of me pulling my hair out and muttering WTF under my breathe 😑. So I decided to reduce my blood pressure and find new and “exciting” ways for them to eat their broccoli, or in this case […]
Tiramisu Hot Chocolate
I’ve been having the most fun during these past couple of weeks, creating the most indulgent hot chocolate recipes. Home-schooling on the other hand has been absolutely miserable. That paired with random loadshedding and water cuts can literally make one lose their mind. Today I’m sharing a delicious tiramisu hot chocolate. This has expresso, chocolate, […]
Chocoflan
Why have one dessert when you can have two! Well, atleast that’s what I always say 😄. Most of us know flan as crème caramel, the deliciously smooth creamy dessert drenched in caramel, this dessert is exactly like that, well sort of. The crème caramel is baked together with chocolate cake batter causing a massive […]
Chuckles Marble Cake
Speaking of favourites, I could never, ever, ever say no to Chuckles. Also I could never eat just one. Anyone with me? This cake is what my sweet Chuckle dreams are made off. Vanilla and chocolate swirled batter, smooth and creamy chocolate ganache topped with Chuckles which definitely needs no introduction. It’s Mother’s day tomorrow […]
Crunchie Ice Cream
Celebrating my sweet blogs 2 year anniversary with this divine Cadbury Crunchie Ice Cream Cake. This recipe is not exactly new, but it is a goodie! It takes me back 2 years ago when my husband and I would spend ridiculous amounts of money on crunchie ice cream that it actually drove me to re-create […]
