Everyday Delicious.
Berry delicious rocky road Here’s another delicious treat from my second book, Everyday Delicious. I’ve adapted this recipe to make it plant-based – vegan lollies and marshmallow don’t contain gelatine. You can adjust the fillings to suit what you like, what you have on hand and what you’re allowed to […]
Peanutty marshmallow squares Another recipe from my cookbook, Everyday Delicious! Making marshmallow is fun – you do need to use an electric beater to get enough air in to make it light and fluffy, though. The peanut base of this slice is so tasty, it could almost be a slice […]
Gluten, nut* and dairy free Chocolate Cake Since posting my gluten-free Chocolate Mud Cake, I’ve had a great number of lovely people asking about adjustments to make it nut and/or dairy free. So rather than just awkwardly try and jam in replacements, I set about creating a whole new recipe. […]
Gluten-free chocolate mud cake Just because you’re gluten-free doesn’t mean you should miss out on life’s most delicious treats. I just won’t have it! This amazing mudcake is fudgey, silky and gloriously rich (it uses a whole block of real chocolate – a very good start). It’s perfect eaten just […]
Dreamy double chocolate cupcakes These cupcakes are frightfully good – I’ve lost count of how many I’ve demolished so far during recipe testing. I reckon if you’re going to the effort of baking, you might as well make it as epic as possible. So it was full-steam ahead with the […]
(Image courtesy of Woman’s Day NZ) Apple pie with feijoa & maple I developed this lovely recipe for Woman’s Day magazine, and they were kind enough to let me share it on my website. With a crispy flaky puff pastry lid, it has a beautiful thick filling, lightly spiced and […]
Triple chocolate brownie This chocolate brownie recipe is from my first cookbook, At My Table. Who doesn’t love a good brownie? They’re fabulous not only for the obvious reason (i.e they’re loaded with gorgeous chocolate), but also because they’re so quick and easy to whip up. I kicked the chocolate […]
Gluten-free ginger & nut slice Forget about the fact this is gluten-free – I’d go so far as to say it could be nicer than the original recipe for my standard Oaty Ginger Slice! It works with a standard gluten-free flour mix (one without raising agent already added) or you […]
Oaty ginger slice (Click here for the gluten-free version) I found the recipe for this slice hand-written over 15 years ago in our family recipe book, way before the internet was around. I’ve since discovered the original version was Jo Seagar’s recipe – an amazing Kiwi cooking icon to be admired! […]
Passionfruit melting moments When passionfruit are in season, I rejoice – I love their sweet tartness, and the beautiful vibrant orange pulp encasing the crunchy little jewels inside. I love the way the uglier and wrinklier they get, the more delicious they are. And I especially love the fact the […]
Gooey little chocolate puddings The great thing about these little beauties is I’ve designed the recipe so you can use in a 12-hole muffin pan – since not everyone has fancy ramekins or moulds. This does mean they turn out quite small, so you can feel justified in devouring two […]
Fudgey Christmas chocolate truffles (gluten/dairy-free) This recipe is in my new book, Scrumptious! Rich, fudgey and not too sweet, these are the perfect little treat to bring out with a tea or coffee – any time, not just at Christmas! Dietary variations I know a lot of people have nut […]
