Chocolate, Thyme and Lemon Shortbread

April 2, 2018 By Caroline Taylor 10 Comments

Adding herbs to bakes and drinks is something I really like to do. I like the botanical flavour that herbs can bring to various dishes and I think woody herbs really suit being paired with chocolate. These chocolate, thyme and lemon shortbread biscuits are a delicious combination of flavours if I do say so myself and if you're unsure about adding herbs to a biscuit you'll just have to give it a try! Ingredients You will need (for 12 squares): Read more

Blood Orange Posset

February 7, 2018 By Caroline Taylor 13 Comments

Slicing open a blood orange has an air of anticipation about it. Will it be intense purple almost throughout, have a few red stripes or actually be mostly orange? Whichever colour you end up with they all have the same fantastic flavour. I love cooking with blood oranges; adding a splash to a cocktail or baking them into something delicious. This recipe for blood orange posset was something I had never tried before and I couldn't believe how easy Read more

Peanut Butter and Raspberry Brownies

September 6, 2017 By Caroline Taylor 12 Comments

I’m not sure these Peanut Butter and Raspberry Brownies need an introduction; just the name gets my mouth watering and a hankering for a piece with a coffee shortly follows. I’ll be honest from the outset, these are not exactly what you’d call healthy. They are full fat, properly indulgent, to-hell-with-it brownies. And frankly, when you’ve been working hard all day coming home to one of these and a cuppa is like a hug for the soul. A gooey, Read more

Dark Chocolate Orange and Pistachio Biscuits

August 16, 2017 By Caroline Taylor 16 Comments

I do love the expression ‘fart-arsing around’. When it came to making and decorating these dark chocolate orange and pistachio biscuits I wasn’t going to be fart-arsing around with any of it. An all in one biscuit dough means it’s easy to mix and haphazard throwing around of melted chocolate makes the decoration a breeze. No dunking of biscuits in chocolate for the perfect edge, no placing of individual caramelised pistachios with tweezers Read more

Double Chocolate and Orange Cookies

March 4, 2017 By Caroline Taylor 23 Comments

After double, these cookies could only be improved by making them triple; perhaps a drizzle or dunk of white chocolate on each. As they stand however, my Double Chocolate and Orange Cookies are just splendid as they are. Especially straight from the oven. The smell as they bake is hard to beat. I like to use dark chocolate when making cookies as sweet as these because I think it adds some welcome bitterness. When it comes to rolling the cookies, for Read more

Chocolate Rolled Oat Biscuits

January 18, 2017 By Caroline Taylor 14 Comments

Part biscuit and part flapjack, these Chocolate Rolled Oat Biscuits are a doddle to make. All mixed in one bowl and baked in one dish; minimum fuss and washing up, maximum baking satisfaction. I like that these biscuits aren’t too sweet and the generous amount of oats used means they are really filling. I’m not sure if they are technically a flapjack or a biscuit though; the lack of honey or golden syrup isn’t very flapjack-y but then the oaty Read more

Marshmallow Rice Krispie Yule Log

December 11, 2016 By Caroline Taylor 17 Comments

I tried making a traditional Yule Log a few years ago. It was somewhat stressful. Apart from the fact that my butter is never warm enough and I always lose patience and mix it up anyway and deal with the consequential sponge that turns up the whole process is fraught with danger. The rolling up, unrolling, spreading of cream, re-rolling and hoping for no cracking then furiously patching it up with ganache, chocolate flying all over the place. It's Read more

Chocolate Fudge Cheesecake Brownies

September 11, 2016 By Caroline Taylor 23 Comments

I like to think I’m fairly well behaved. The majority of what I eat I make myself and is somewhat healthy and well balanced. I find a place for the indulgent dishes (macaroni cheese, dauphinoise and the like) amongst the day to day soups, salads, vegetables and wholegrains. I’m by no means a saint and I think a little indulgence never hurt anyone. When I plan to make something that’s maybe a little bit ‘naughty’ I make sure I go all out. Read more

Topped Chocolate

April 22, 2016 By Caroline Taylor 15 Comments

I wasn't quite sure what to call this when I first made it but it's become known as Topped Chocolate in my kitchen. There have been a few different flavours and so far this one, with honeycomb and pumpkin seeds, has been my favourite. It's not a complicated recipe by any means and you can add almost anything you like; pecan and coconut or raisin and walnut are some that I have tried. One big chocolate bar makes enough for two for a week, if you take Read more

Coconut, Sesame and Chocolate Shortbread

February 25, 2016 By Caroline Taylor 10 Comments

When something just works it’s the best. It could be a combination of flavours you tried by accident or using something perfectly for a different purpose than it was designed for. I made this Coconut, Sesame and Chocolate Shortbread for both of the aforementioned reasons. Recently I was enjoying my chocolate dessert when another coconut and sesame pudding was on the table, and as I like to try everything, I took a scoop of the coconut and sesame Read more

  • The walls are so white and clean and bright. Hall stairs and landing almost done, bedroom started, only the rest of the house to go... #whitewalls #decorating #books #bookshelf #shelfie #vintagebooks #myhome #classicbooks
  • And a very sunny good morning to you too. Lovely seeing the snowdrops coming out and the daffodils on their way. #snowdrops #sundaymorning #garden #springiscoming
  • Most of our furniture is rather old. The youngest piece in the living room (excluding sofa) is 1970s, the rest much older. I hate housework but I love using proper, traditional products when I am cleaning. This beeswax polish is just the best. Hard work but the smell is like stepping back in time. #housework #cleaning #polishing #boring #beeswax #proper #vintagefurniture #victorianhouse
  • As today will be spent cooking this is what's come out of the jar for tomorrow. You can't go wrong with tea, cake and a lovely long walk. 3.5 miles each way. #morning #lifeonabudget #allthatimeating #tulips #flowers #plansfortomorrow #weekendplans #daysout
  • Thank you for all your votes, ideas and suggestions for my dinner party menu. This is what I'll be cooking up tomorrow! I'm thinking a cooked then blended spinach salad rather than raw for the moussaka. #dinnermenu #dinnerparty #tomorrowsdinner #allthatimeating #menu #realfood
  • One more coat...just one more coat and hideous olive chimney breast is banished forever. My to-done list needs a little extra colouring in too. #decorating #itsallwhite #todonelist #painting #nomoregreenpaint #home
