Super easy and super healthy. This is a great snack and a fabulous way to get some fruit in you! Now it's getting colder, it's high time for some more egg nog! This is a lovely little warmer. And the cheeky salted caramel liqueur adds that super special kick. Give it a go. Check out the Bailey's version and the original. Ingredients
Method Pour the milk into your mug (this is just to measure it). Now pop it in a pan (off the heat). Crack an egg into another mug and beat with a fork until foamy. Add to the milk. Break the chocolate into small pieces and add to the milk. Now turn the heat on very low and stir constantly with a wooden spoon. You'll know it's done when the mix thickens and it begins to steam. Pour it into the original mug and top it up with the liqueur. Fab. Enjoy. Watch the video. This is just like a bread and butter pudding but with Jaffa Cakes. It's amazing. This makes one. So Monty Bojangles sent me some "Flutter Scotch" to review. Basically they're truffles. And they're absolutely fabulous. Top quality chocolate. Something you want after a fab meal. I made this for the house and we've all had loads of it. Really delish. We all really enjoyed it. Give it a shot. You can really see why the chocolate has a "great taste" award. If you are planning a dinner party or want to impress someone #basicallytinder then do give this a go! So the other day I bought some Salted Caramel Liqueur from Tesco. One of the best decisions I've made for a while. It's like a Baileys but salted caramel. Fab. Like our Best Easy Hot Chocolate but with a bit of an extra kick! Ingredients
Method Pop the milk in the mug and microwave for about 1.5 mins. It should be piping hot - when you stick your finger in, it should hurt! Break in the chocolate and add in the liqueur. Stir until all the chocolate has melted (forks are great for this). Drink! How fab is that?! So I was hungry. This happened. I used home made vanilla ice cream, but you could use bought stuff. Enjoy. Ingredients
Method Pop everything in a blender and blend! It's that easy. So this is a new take on the classic barking baking cookies. It's lovely. I accidentally bought peanut M and Ms but actually it tastes fab anyway so well worth a go. Dig in. I was busy watching some videos the other day and came across one by Gemma Stafford. She was doing something similar to this and it works brilliantly. Enjoy! I think this is my new favourite one. It's super simple and delicious. Give it a go. Great for late night reading sessions!
There are so many great words in the title to this post. It's so easy to do and tastes fab. You absolutely must try it. Watch the video below.
This is actually a Nigella recipe and really fab. It's great if you need a quick hit of energy. Give it a go. Make sure you use the vanilla, it's what makes it so good. Ingredients
Method Crack the egg into a mug and whisk up. Pour this egg into a tin/bowl big enough for one piece of bread to lie flat in. Now add in the vanilla extract and stir about. Cut the bread into triangles and lay it flat in the tin. After a few minutes, when it has soaked up some of the egg, flip the bread and sprinkle sugar over it (about 1 pudding spoon). Whilst you are waiting, pop a frying pan on the heat with a large knob of butter. Gently melt it. After you have soaked both sides of the bread. Pop the bread in, sugar side up, and let it fry gently. After a few minutes the bread will begin to brown nicely; turn it over. You'll probably need a spatular and a fork/knife for this. Let it fry. It shouldn't take long. Whilst it is frying, sprinkle out some sugar on a plate. When the bread is done, take it out (carefully, it'll be hot) and turn it about in the sugar so it's lovely and coated. Do this for both and pop on a plate. Chuck a hunk of strawberry jam on top and then enjoy I was walking back from rowing this afternoon with Sophie and we got talking about food and cooking. I admitted I had a courgette left over from my escapades with a ratatouille. I didn't know what to do with it. Sophie suggested, among other things, a courgette frittata. It's superb. And I feel sooo healthy. OK so this is the easiest recipe in the world. We all love brownies but they are a bit of a faff to make. These are absolutely amazing. And they're just flour, chocolate spread and eggs. Do it. If you have more time, you can try our original Oreo Chocolate Brownie recipe here. When life gives you lemons, make lemon drizzle cake! Kathy and James made one the other day and I thought it was fab so I had a go at my own version. This recipe is based on one from the BBC site but I didn't use 4 eggs as I couldn't see the point. I used two eggs. Check out the video and subscribe to our channel! I had to do some packing the other day and in a bit to procrastibake I made this... Like a kind of pancake panini cookie thing. Enjoy! I have absolutely no idea why my face is upside down.
This is rather gorgeous, especially on a sunny day! I have a superb friend, James, who sent me a bottle of Amarula for Barking Baking Booze. The review will go up here. Equally, it seemed silly just to drink #ResponsibleStudent so I've turned it into some ice cream! Elena and I made this and we even invented a special way of holding a whisk without having to buy one of those £500 things from John Lewis in the process... check out the video below!
Jam jars are great for ice cream as you can use them for little puds and also you don't end up eating your entire batch in one sitting. This recipe does about 3 jars.
We now have 1000 likes on our Facebook page! To celebrate I just made this. It is rather splendid and great if you don't want to make a huge batch that you might be tempted to gorge on! One cookie made in a mug. Give it a go!
Love a good pancake. This is super easy and works like a dream. Check out the video for a full walk through. Makes two. This is runnier than the other pancake recipe and so you can make more crepe-like pancakes. Not really sure what the difference between crepes and pancakes are; think crepes are basically a bit thinner. This is really easy and perfect for the end of term when you have no proper food left #student. Enjoy. Check this out. I seem to live off a constant supply of peanut butter and jam on toast, so I thought why not in a cake? Works fab. Be generous with the peanut butter. Here the jam looks like a heart so I guess it could be a post-valentine-I-still-love-you cake? So easy you'd be mad not to try it.
Who doesn't like pancakes? No one. Honey and bacon is a really great combination for a bit of breakfast in the morning/a nice lunch. This is very easy, give it a go.
OK so the other night I tried to make a ham, boursin and olive tart thing - it sounds good but something just went wrong. Not disheartened I then tried this. The cake recipe is based on the one I use for Peach and Mango Pudding and is fab. Baileys is great. Don't add too much; you want it subtle, suave and sophisticated.
OK so I have been trying to make a really good carbonara for some time; it has eluded me for a while but now I have it! Some people over complicate the whole thing unnecessarily. This really does work brilliantly and uses basically no ingredients.The trick, I have discovered, is to put the egg and cheese in at the correct time (see below for when this is).
So egg nog just got a Barking Baking kick. Add chocolate and baileys and it turns into something quite special. Enjoyed this one.
These are something of a tradition in our house - we make monstrous sandwiches with all the meat left over from the meal at lunch! It really is fantastic. Hope you have all had a splendid Christmas!
