CHOCOLATE AND PECAN NUT BROWNIES

Baking, Desserts

TIP: Bake until set around the edges but still fudgy in the centre – a skewer inserted in the centre should have some wet mixture on it. The trick with brownies is the correct baking time! Once you get the perfect baking time for your oven – make sure you write it down on the recipe. NEVER overbake your brownies!

CINNABUNS

COCONUT SAGO PUDDING WITH PASSION FRUIT AND LIME DRIZZLE

Desserts

This is my ultimate comfort dessert! A family treat and also good for entertaining. I had a similar dessert at one of my favourite Asian tapas restaurants – Cheynes in Hout Bay – a while ago and decided to make up my own recipe for it. The passionfruit and lime drizzle gives a delicious tangy twist to this dessert

PUMPKIN CHURROS WITH BUTTERSCOTCH DIPPING SAUCE

Baking, Desserts

This is a real treat!! A pumpkin fritter on steroids!! If you do nor have access to the First Choice Butterscotch Velvet – make a dark chocolate or caramel dipping sauce. They also taste delicious just dusted with cinnamon sugar!
If you have some of the dough left – leave it in the piping bag in a sealed container in the fridge – and make a fresh batch the next day

CHOCOLATE SIMNEL CAKE

Baking

Decorated with eleven balls of marzipan and chocolate coated almonds to represent the twelve Apostles minus the traitor Judas. The chocolate gives the cake an interesting twist and the cherries and cranberries are a delicious surprise when you bite into the cake. The layer of marzipan inserted in the middle of the cake makes it moist and lifts the flavour to a new level!
