Hello Everyone. I have a quick post today to share this amazing and simple Pork & Fennel Sausage Roll recipe which I whipped up on the weekend to take to my friends house party. Originally the recipe is from the Bourke St Bakery Cookbook but I cheated with it slightly and didn’t make the puff pastry from [...]

I haven’t cooked at home for a while and had a sudden urge to go on a cooking spree on Saturday. Originally  I was just going to make a baked rice pudding (which I did) but then I came across this recipe for Cinnamon & Banana cookies and they looked too good to pass up. [...]

I grabbed this recipe from the Bourke St Bakery cookbook that my friend Ana bought me for my birthday. After visiting Bourke St for the first time last month and buying one of these tarts, I knew I had to attempt them at home. I didnt have the time to make my own shortcrust pastry, so I [...]

On the weekend my Dad brought home a huge box of figs from the markets. Taking the opportunity, I found a recipe on the Gourmet Traveller website for a Fig Crostata which I used as the base. It seems like my measurements may have been slightly wrong in the recipe as my pastry mixture was too [...]

This is the ultimate decadent slice that anyone could wish for with a coffee in the afternoon. The sugar content would definitely give you a bit of high to get through any afternoon tasks that you have to do. I made this over the Easter weekend (Greek Easter) as we have a BBQ every year at our [...]

Judging from all of my recent recipe posts, you must all think I am the size of a house by now. This Caramel Pecan Pie recipe was so quick and easy I thought I should share it. I whipped this up on Easter morning to take to my friend picnic. There is nothing better then [...]

I find that this recipe always comes to the rescue when I need to whip up something quick and easy for lunch. Generally I will have most of these ingredients in the fridge/pantry and I guess most of the ingredients are pretty common so hopefully most people have them in stock as well. Ingredients: Pasta [...]

Alongside my previous recipe post for Caramel Crunch Brownies which you can check out here, I also cooked up a batch of these brownie cookies with peanut butter frosting which were devine and extremely decadent. The recipe was also sourced from the 10th Birthday Collector’s Edition of the Donna Hay Magazine.   Ingredients: Brownie Cookie [...]

The yummiest brownies I have had the pleasure of eating…and making!! I grabbed this recipe from the Donna Hay 10th Birthday Celebrations Issue in the section dedicated to chocolate. I decided there was no better way to bring in the New Year, and cooked these as well as another chocolate recipe (still to come) for [...]

Guess who’s back..back again! Woo I have returned to updating my blog minus the stress of full time work and part time uni life. My degree is done and dusted, and it makes me happy knowing that I wont have to head back to UTS Kuringai campus ever again (well, until graduation). So for my [...]

My mum bought six of the cutest ramekins this weekend with little lids, I took it as a sign that I had too cook something in them. Of course my sweet tooth took over and Crème Brulee was the recipe I jumped at and went with..nothing beats creamy vanilla custard with a hard layer of caramel. [...]
