Chocolate Mousse …

March 14, 2015

If you’re a chocolate lover, then you’re going to love this Chocolate Mousse. It’s quick and easy to make and the result is decadent, smooth and a velvety soft texture that is delightful to eat. This is the perfect “make ahead of time” dessert which I often whip up the day before or on the morning I plan to serve it. Serve it in a small ramekin with some berries on top or my other suggestion is to serve a small amount of the mousse in a clear serving glass with loads of beautiful chopped fruit and a dollop of cream on the top … mmmm … yum!

Coconut Snowballs … One Recipe … 4 Ways …

January 5, 2015

I love a recipe that’s versatile … a recipe where you can take the basic ingredients and create more than one version of it. This is such a recipe … Coconut Snowballs. Make the basic recipe and dip the balls in white chocolate, take the same recipe and roll the balls in coconut and finally, to create an adult version, add some glace cherries to the original mixture (not all kids will like glace cherries) and then roll in either white chocolate or coconut. One recipe … 4 ways … love it! Coconut Snowballs … One Recipe … 4 Ways …   … read more

Toblerone Dip …

November 24, 2014

About 4 months ago, I shared a photo on Instagram of a beautiful platter of fruit I had prepared and taken to a barbecue when I had been asked to bring a plate. I mentioned at the time that it was a fantastic alternative to a plate of nibblies as it looked great, tasted great and was so healthy. Below is the original photo I shared. At the time, one of my lovely readers suggested that a bowl of Toblerone Dip would be the perfect addition to my fruit platter. Well, I finally got around to making it and I have to say, it’s divine. It requires only 2 … read more

Rum Balls … the Ideal Gift for Teachers …

November 4, 2014

October is on it’s way to being over and before we know it, the kids will be on holidays once again … time certainly flies! So today I thought I’d share my Rum Ball recipe because I often whip up a couple of batches and the kids present them to their teachers at the end of the term, just a little gift to say thank you for a great year. What I usually do is buy a stack of Christmas mugs, bowls and dishes at the Boxing Day sales where you’ll pay as little as 50 cents for these things. Plain coloured cups like the green melamine cup in the photo from the Coles … read more

Chocolate Sparkle Balls …

October 11, 2014

If you’re looking for some party food ideas for your child’s next birthday or special celebration, these Chocolate Sparkle Balls are perfect and so easy to make! For a serving suggestion, I found these cute little Mini Patty Pan Wrappers at Coles. I love that these balls can be made the day before meaning you have less to do on the day! I rolled some of the balls in 100’s & 1000’s and some in Choclettes but desiccated coconut works well too. Chocolate Sparkle Balls …   Print Prep time 15 mins Total time 15 mins   … read more

You’ll be the most popular Mum in the street once you’ve whipped up a batch of these! What else can I say but YUM!!

Hazelnut and Orange Bliss Balls …

May 12, 2014

You will have guessed by now that I love creating Bliss Balls … little balls of yummy that are perfect for a quick snack. These ones are particularly decadent and will have definite appeal for the adults (although my kids love them too). I’ve moved away from the almond meal with this recipe and substituted it with hazelnut meal. The texture of the two is very similar but the hazelnut meal has a lovely “Nutella” flavour that is beautifully complemented with the sweetness of both the orange juice and orange zest. These would actually be great served with coffee … read more

Chocolate Raspberry Muffins …

March 23, 2014

Okay, so a muffin isn’t necessarily going to be the healthiest snack out there but this recipe is definitely an improvement on one of my old favourites. I’ve added apple puree, which reduces the quantity of butter used and I also used low fat or skim milk, which I do in most of my recipes. These two things add up to less saturated fat and also fewer calories (or kilojoules). Try these little gems and see what you think. My verdict … yum!!
