Scottish ShortbreadThis is the most famous cookie of Scotland. It’s a must to use pure butter. Traditionally, shortbread contains no other flavor. I’ve been making this recipe since 1970 when I got the recipe in Edinburgh, Scotland. The addition of a small amount of rice flour gives a firmness and crunchiness to the cookie.

Guernsey Potato Peel PieHaving just read the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society for my book club, I had to find a way to make a potato peel pie for meeting.

Butter and Flour Free Chocolate CakeThis contains chickpeas which might sound strange but actually works really well! It doesn't taste particularly 'chickpea'-like and is still incredibly moist despite having no butter. You can easily make this completely gluten-free by using gluten-free baking powder too. This was made in an 8" square tin. |

Lorraine Pascale's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Zebra CakeI love making cakes that are a bit different but with cakes I always seem to revert back to my old favourites. I will always experiment with cupcakes, but cakes?
