This dessert is quick and easy to make and I did this because I had people round unexpectedly so had no dessert to give! It is basically it is shortbread and mousse. I dont really have measurements as I just chuck in what I feel. Shortbread- take 8 oz plain flour and 4 oz granulated sugar and mix. Rub in 4oz butter or margerine but for a better ...

This is quickly becoming a firm favourite in our household - and has been taken from a pampered chef recipe - I hope its ok to share here?

As you can see from a previous review, my son is a fussy eater, I totally understand this as I was also very fussy as a child---butter beans and heinz lentil soup amongst my worst food memories! I love (as does my son) Angel delight, and have found that the tesco brand is as tasty as the branded version. Here is my ...

Many years ago I used to know somebody who was a vegetarian. Vegetarianism itself I don't have a problem with at all, as it's a place I frequently go to myself, but on this occasion, I seriously felt a deep yearning for some meat. My friend had made what she called a "veggie chilli". Quite frankly, but with all due respect to her, the ...

Here's another nice low fat dessert that will suit anyone who is watching their weight. You will need one sachet of No Added Sugar Jelly Powder.

Desserts are my absolute favourite part of every meal and I have been known to have one first as a starter and then have my main meal to make sure I get my pudding intake. As a result of me loving them, I do tend to make them a lot of the time and I do have a few favourite recipes. These are fruit flapjack, fruit pancakes and crunch ice cream ...

OK - we can buy most things in stores now which compare well to home-made but nothing, in my opinion, comes close to a home-made carrot cake!

I suppose I could have written two separate reviews but I usually use these two recipes together for a scrumptious desert, I guess you could say it is a BOGOF. First the chocolate mousse. I don't want to put you off this recipe but I must point out that the recipe uses raw egg so it will not be suitable for pregnant ladies or small ...

These cookies are my own recipe, and have been described by my friends as 'Awesome' and 'The best thing I've ever tasted', not to blow my own trumpet or anything :) The amount this recipe makes depends on how big each one is, but following the instructions you should end up with anything from 18-25 cookies - making them last more than a couple of ...
