Basque Cheesecake

  If you love cheesecakes, you definitely need to give this recipe a try. This Basque Cheesecake is so smooth and creamy and the best part is that it is easy to make. The worst part is having to wait for it to be refrigerated for 4 hours or overnight for the flavours to develop but the wait is so worth it. This recipe can be made using the oven or in the air fryer. I have made it both in the oven and in the air fryer. Both methods create a delicious cheesecake that your family and friends will ask you to make time and time again.  Happy Baking xo Basque Cheesecake  Ingredients · 250 grams cream cheese ·  ½  cup sugar · 2 eggs · 1 tablespoon cornflour ·  ⅓  cup thickened cream ·  ½  teaspoon vanilla extract  ·  ¼  teaspoon salt (optional) Instructions 1.

Chocolate Brownie Cookies

-
If you love chocolate, brownies and cookies, you definitely need to bake these.  This recipe is so delicious and you will not be disappointed.  It's one of my all time favourite cookie recipes.

These Chocolate Brownie Cookies are so delicious and full of chocolate flavour.  They taste just like a brownie but in a cookie.  Hard to stop at just one cookie.

You can eat the cookies without adding the chocolate ganache in the middle but the ganache takes it to the next level of yum. Hope you give this recipe a try soon.

Chocolate Brownie Cookies

Ingredients

· 40 grams butter
· 200 grams dark chocolate, finely chopped
· 2 eggs
· ⅔ cup caster sugar
· 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
· ¼ cup self-raising flour

Chocolate Frosting

· 200 grams dark chocolate, finely chopped
· 100 grams butter
· 2 tablespoons icing sugar

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line three trays with baking paper.

2. Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water). Stir until completely melted, then set aside.

3. Add eggs, sugar and vanilla extract in a bowl and using an electric beater beat the mixture for 10 minutes or until thick and creamy.

4. Fold in sifted flour and then chocolate mixture and allow it to stand for 10 minutes.

5. Place mixture into a piping bag or snap-lock bag. Pipe 4 cm round circles on the baking trays. Allow about 5 cm between each cookie.

6. Bake in oven for 8 minutes or until puffed and beginning to crack. Allow the cookies to cool on baking trays.

Chocolate Frosting

7. Place butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (make sure the bowl does not touch the water). Stir until the butter and chocolate are melted and smooth. Whisk in icing sugar. Allow mixture to cool to room temperature. Beat with a wooden spoon until thick and spreadable.

8. Pipe the chocolate frosting on half the cookies and then sandwich together with remaining cookies.

Tips

· You can also just spoon the cookie dough mixture onto the baking trays without a piping bag. Just try to make them as even in shape as possible.

Coffee Kisses

I made these coffee biscuits awhile ago and thought I would make them again and share this recipe with you.  I'm sure there are many coffee lovers out there. These coffee kisses smell amazing when they are baking in the oven.  The aroma of the coffee biscuits coming out of the oven smells like an Italian cafe. I must say these coffee biscuits are more of an grown up biscuits.  They taste like a shortbread with a hint of coffee and they smell just like coffee. I would recommend making these biscuits when the weather is a bit warmer as the mixture can be a bit firm and hard to pipe out of the piping bag on a cold day. Happy Baking xo Coffee Kisses Ingredients · 250 grams butter, softened · ⅔ cups icing sugar · 2 teaspoons instant coffee · 2 cups plain flour Filling · 45 grams dark chocolate, melted · Icing sugar Instructions 1.

Mini Yo-Yos (Melting Moments)

-
Image
I thought I would share with you all, one of my signature bakes.  The traditional melt-in-the-mouth biscuit known as Yo-Yos.  Yo-Yos are made with custard powder and often people refer to them as Melting Moments.  However, the only difference is that melting moments are made with cornflour instead of custard powder. These biscuits are loved by all as they melt-in-your mouth and they taste so good with the lemony buttercream in the centre.  I love this recipe as it's easy and you can fill the biscuits with any filling you like or you can just eat the biscuits unfilled. If you haven't noticed I like to bake products in mini form or bite size.  I find that everyone loves mini desserts or treats.  You can make 16 full sized Yo-Yos or 32 mini ones. Hope you bake this classic traditional biscuits soon as everyone will love them.  This is a favourite amongst my family and friends. Happy Baking xo Mini Yo-Yos (Melting Moments) Ingredients · ...

Strawberry Jelly Slice

I've always wanted to make a jelly slice but never got around to making it.  I was looking through some recipes I saved awhile ago and come across an image of a jelly slice.  I think it was a sign for me to make it and so I did. This strawberry jelly slice is so delicious. It has a biscuit base, followed by a creamy lemon middle layer and a smooth jelly top. It was enjoyed by everyone and I have already had requests for more.  This slice is fun to make and not only does it look visually appealing but it tastes so good.  I can't believe I waited so long to make it.  It's definitely a new favourite.
