[NAB3]

Owww go on then... I'm all intrigued now!

is it cake, lots of lovely cake?

Hang on while I get the names!

Chocolate crispy buns
Devon scones
Raspberry Meringue Bomb
Chocolate Brownie cake

Do you think I need to stop???

blimey, that's puddingtastic!

Can we come to tea? Puulllleaasse

droooooooooool

I don't think it would be good for your health to eat all of that......so bung some in my direction please ?

I'm fed up now as it is all done.

Need to find some savoury thinngs I can make that will keep for packd lunches but don't need to go in the fridge. Any ideas???

Oh, I know, chirpy girl. Will have the raspberry bomb with the kids for tea but the rest is for the kid's lunches.

savoury flapjacks? it's just egg, cheese, oats and butter, can find recipe if you want.

I am tempted to make this now as my mouth is watering

Ooh no, think of the lunchbox police! You can't allow them to have chocolate (gasp) in their lunchboxes....

seriously, sling it this way, I will dispose of it in a safe manner!

I know! I sent a piece of chocolate brownie in as to me it is more than a cake but won't be doing that again. ANything choccy will be had for tea!

Would love any savoury recipes please. TIA.

I have my recipe book here as am copying that cake recipe so here are some...
cheese straws
Mix 50g self raising, pinch cayenne, 25g butter, 100g cheese (either all cheddar or change for 20g parmesan if you have it) until doughlike
Roll out and cut into shapes
Bake 8-10 mins GM6/200C

Flapjacks
Mix 1 egg, 25g butter, 75g cheese and 70g oats in bowl
Shape into balls, flatten slightly and bake for 10 mins GM5 until golden

Scotch pancakes
sift 120g self raising and small pinch salt into bowl, add 30g caster sugar.
Beat 1 egg into 1/4 pt milk and mix with dry ingredients.
Cook spoonfuls on hot griddle/frying pan until it bubblkes and then flip over and cook reverse.

I add cinnamon and raisins for a change, I also added mashed banana once but they don't keep more than a day then.

All of the above keep in airtight boxes for about 3 or 4 days..

Thank you.

I should explain that we are all addicted to cheese in this house!

Me too. I could live on cheese. Just been to Asda and now have 5 different cheeses. Any particular one that works better? Not making them just yet as need to start on the roast and my mixer is in the dishwasher.

Come on Mrs!! I am waiting to do them!!!

They are in. You don't get many do you? Or have I done something wrong???

Sorry! DD woke up and has been all clingy as she was ill, and then I decided to move all the furntire around (nesting, moi?)

Red Leicester, cheddar and parmesan is my fave mix as it makes it stripy...but it's prob too late to tell you that now

You don't get many, should have mentioned, I only have me, DD and DH so we don't need a lot to feed us (as long as I hide them from DH...) did you like them then?

chocolate brownie cake recipe please NAB

I've just made my own cream slices, yummy and very easy.

I think I got 6. Haven't tasted them. TBH The smell put me off. Not sure why.

6? I normally get at least 12 in my cupcake tin thing!
Mind you, I make littler ones for DD to get her hands round....
