Ruby Chocolate Cookie Cake with White Chocolate Buttercream

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! Although I think 14^th Feb is slightly more controversial in terms of holidays (I have certainly had my own ups and downs with it), if nothing else I have decided it is the perfect excuse to try out another bake.

Christmas Traybake Box – Chocolate Orange Cookie Bars

As we enter the December ‘limbo’ between Christmas and New Year, I have decided that now would be the perfect (?) time to put up my Christmas blog post. Admittedly, the timing was largely dictated by my almost complete absence from any kind of social media over the festive period, but who doesn’t love an extra treat in the time anyway?

Double Chocolate Baked Cookie Dough Cheesecake

So, after spending a couple of years trying to curb my sweet tooth and shave a couple of inches off my waistline, I am back to undo all my hard work – and I hope it’s a welcomed return!

Double Chocolate and Almond Slutty Blondies

If you happened to read my last post for porn star martini cheesecake squares, then you will know that the time finally arrived to celebrate my last weekend before moving to France for another ski season. I will admit now that my decision to try these particular bakes was purely coincidental and by no means a representation of any mood apart from the constant desire to stuff my face with sugar. But I have to admit both bakes certainly did the trick.

White Chocolate and Raspberry Cookie Cake

In the wise words of the cookie monster, ‘C is for Cookie, that’s good enough for me’. And, unfortunately for Hayley, it’s going to have to be good enough for her too. My decision to make Hayley a cookie cake for her 23rd birthday was, however, not solely sparked by my desire to use what is the most overused quote in blog posts about cookies, but because I have been meaning to try it for ages. And if you have ever had a birthday cake from Millie’s Cookies, you will understand why. Let’s put it this way: if it’s anywhere near as good as the original Hayley is going to have to make a dash with it before I stop plucking my eyebrows, start taking some testosterone supplements for a more gruff sounding voice and dye myself blue as an excuse for petty cake theft.
