Scottish Shortbread

Scottish Shortbread by Marlin Rinehart

Most American recipes for…

Vanilla Custard Sauce (British)

Vanilla Custard Sauce (British) by Marlin Rinehart

This sauce is served over steamed puddings, fruit crisps (crumbles), and any dessert that would be enhanced by a creamy vanilla sauce. It's the perfect homemade replacement for Byrd's Custard powder.

Cranberry Orange Cookie Bites

Cranberry Orange Cookie Bites by Hungry Jenny

These taste best fresh out of the oven but keep well for a few days, they just go a little chewier. But best of all, they're pretty healthy! Which is why it's ok to eat six of these at once ;-) This recipe makes 60 mini cookies (tsp size) or 30 'normal' cookies!…

Swiss Meringue

Swiss Meringue by Samantha Rivera

So as you may remember from an earlier post that I have never made Meringue. Being brought up with a healthy eating JammyMummy we had loads of scrumptious food, but, I don't remember meringue.

Chicken Soup Puff Pastry Pie

Chicken Soup Puff Pastry Pie by Hungry Jenny

Now, I have to admit, the pastry I made for this particular photo didn't turn out that well. But if you're sensible unlike me, you would have simply used pre-made puff pastry instead so that it will turn out like the dream it's supposed to be.
